Nice pictures, Established02 !
I actually remember flying an IL-96 early 90's (1992 to be precise), BRU-LED and SVO-BRU.
Does anyone know SU used this aircraft regularly on its flights to BRU, or was this just a lucky coincidence?

[Established02]

Thanks, Capetown.

My best guess is that is was rather exceptional for SU to fly the IL96 to BRU during those years.

On the other hand, the IL86 was a common visitor.

Well, it happened definitely later then 1992, SU only received their first IL96 on the very last days of 1992.

Looking at the two posts above, I realize that I've probably messed up the IL 86 and the IL 96.
So, I definitely DID fly the IL 86, but, as my trip was in Feb' 92, I guess it's fair to say that I never flew the IL 96
