Ilyushin Il-76 (RA-76511)

Boss shot Daniel

@ Beeks thanks to you and truck man hahahah!!!

Dayuuuuuuuummmmm !! This is simply too kool

@ Angel Vee the jet blast was great ask them!!

For me, that's one of the best pics of an Il-76 and one of the best over Maho. Super, super shot Daniel. These and other dedicated freighters are probably the lifeline for the world at this time.

@ Gavin Hughes thank your very much appreciate it, yes they are the life line to date flying all over the world with medical supplies.

Watch that hair!

Awesome shot Daniel, as always!

Perfect shot can't get any better!

No tourists. Too bad, they missed a nice one.

@ Tom Mitchell you shore bet they got a blast over there hahahaha.

@ Lynette Filipov Thanks very much i know your wishing you was on the beach at the moment.

@ BIGDJB thank you!

@ Mark Albrecht yup to bad they did next time!!

Isn't there a shot of a 747 landing there?

The nose kinda freaks me out. It looks like a bomber, or something.

@ Robert Cowling there are many shots of B747s landing here.
Its a converted cargo carrier.

Robert...the design dates from 1967 at a time when Soviet aircraft still had, at least a theoretical bombardier's position in the nose - a hangover from the old days which took the Soviet's years to get past. Although the Il-76 was designed as a freighter from the outset it would seem the thinking still was that if trouble started it could be converted. Cold war days.
