The last of IL-18 planes was produced in 1978. It' amazing that some of them still can fly.

Браво экипаж, вы настоящие русские пилоты, просто асы !!! Горжусь вами и нашей советской техникой ! Самолёту более 50-ти лет, а он всё летает и будет ещё лет 30 летать при должном обслуживании ! Экономичные и безопасные двигатели, аналоговые приборы - вот она вековая надёжность !!! ... Gallantly crew, you are the real Russian pilots, simply experts !!! I am proud of you and our Soviet technique ! The airplane is more than 50 years old, and it everything flies and as early as years 30 will fly in case of due service ! Economic and safe engines, analog instruments - here it is secular reliability !!!

I can brag about something most of you people can't: I have flown on an Il-18. It was more than 40 years ago but I still vividly remember how noisy it was. It had a very sluggish climb rate and a cruise altitude of about 20,000ft but overall I had an impression that I am flying on a very safe aircraft.

I've noticed many former military pilots that use the same landing technique... where the pilot will move the yoke forward and backward during the landing flare to feel for the runway. My flight instructor frowned on that practice because it can cause a pilot induced oscillation. I have alot of respect for russian built aircraft. They are solid and mostly reliable.

no clue there, but i was wondering aswell. ( i had a rough landing with almost loss of controll thanks to oscilliation - a lesson i wont forget.)

I spent four years in the Peace Corp, traveling to third world countries like this. It is just insane. I was once in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo. No jetway, you always board from a rolling stairway. Prior to boarding, all the passengers just sit around underneath the plane. They sit on the tires, smoking cigarettes, no security. The airline I flew on was not permitted to fly in US airspace because they met none of the security or maintenance minimums. I made it though!

Hi Robert.G We are in a quite exclusive club - I've had the pleasure too. 1984, Gatwick-Warsaw and back.Tinnitus for hours afterwards, and as you say, a bit of a cloud-hugger which just lopes along. But, built like a battleship, and has something raw and, well, atmospheric about it no modern jet can match. That flight got me into the whole aircraft thing. I'm amazed and pleased there's (at least) one still flying. So-thanks to JustPlanes and kindest regards to you Robert. G.

That particular aircraft has logged a bunch of damn miles, and well worn. But those old IL-18s are built for it, and can take maximum abuse with minimal maintenance. Not exactly pretty, but they provide a fairly safe and comfortable ride, and are ruggedly built. The ones that look like they've flown straight out of hell are the ones I'd trust most.
