Hello all AERO fans.
The next picture I am sending, is one of a series of pictures
of an ILYUSHIN IL-76.
This is one of the biggest cargo carriers built by the Russians,
from 1971 onwards, to supersede the Antonov AN-12s.
It is capable of carrying up to 40+ tons.
With a wingspan of 53m and a tail hight of 15m, the maximum all
up weight of this aircraft is an amazing 190 tons. The loading
dimensions inside the aircraft are 3,4m high, 3,05m wide and a
lenght of 25m.
The aircraft is fitted with four AVIADVIGATEL D-30KP-2 engines.
Approximately 900 of these aircraft were built. The aircraft's
range is 10 hrs at a cruising speed of 750km/h.
This aircraft was part of the static display during an Airshow
held at the Waterkloof Air Force Base in Pretoria, on the
9th of September 2000.
The camera used was a Sony Digital MAVICA MVC-FD73, and the
picture was taken by Jannie ZR6PHD.
