YURY Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 The Ilyushin Il-96 (Russian: Илью́шин Ил-96) is a Russian four-engined long-haul wide-body airliner designed by Ilyushin in the former Soviet Union and manufactured by the Voronezh Aircraft Production Association in Voronezh, Russia. It is powered by four Aviadvigatel PS-90 two-shaft turbofan engines.The Il-96-300 is the initial variant and is fitted with Aviadvigatel (Soloviev) PS90A turbofans with a thrust rating of 16,000 kgf (157 kN, 35,300 lbf). Development started in mid-80s while the first prototype flew on 28 September 1988. The first Il-96 entered service with Aeroflot in 1993.[citation needed] Range with 262 passengers and fuel reserves (for holding 75 minutes at an altitude of 450 m) in a two-class configuration is about 11,000 km (5,940 nmi), allowing flights from Moscow to US west coast cities, a far improvement over the Ilyushin Il-86. A highly customized version of the Il-96-300, called Il-96-300PU is used as the primary aircraft in the Russian presidential aircraft fleet. Four were used by Russian president Vladimir Putin, and by Dmitry Medvedev as VIP planes. The VIP aircraft is operated by Russia State Transport Company.[8] The Cuban leadership use IL-96 300. There were plan to produce a variant dubbed Il-96-300V which would include two sets of Airstairs in it.[9] All pleasant viewing!

Alex1978 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 (edited) Top build. What kit is this ? I built the Eastern Express IL-96-300 and Il-96M some time ago and these were absolute nightmares to build. I would love to add some more of this magnificent airliner to my collection but I will avoid the EE kits at any cost Edited November 9, 2017 by Alex1978 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
