Soviet beauties @ BOM !

😀

Talk about Soviet era airliners , was lucky to have spotted two stunners recently ! 😀 😀 This brings back a flood of memories of Aeroflot IL96s on short finals for BOM right thru the 90s!

Here is the beautiful Aeroflot IL96-300!

‘Flot are set to retire the last of their IL-96s in october, so enjoy them while you can! But an IL-62s ever rarer, both great catches!

The current Aeroflot livery looks sophisticated compared to the drab earlier!
