Elevator in cabin a passenger plane Ilyushin IL-86 Russian old plane

[@737Garrus]

I love how there's literally an elevator inside the plane! Air Travel peaked in the 1970s!

[@Tengri30]

Il-86, probably the biggest commuter jet ever build. ☺️

[@ivanforero3554]

what is commuter ?

@@ivanforero3554 not long range, so like flights up to 5 hrs

@@damarhanifsusanto9440 no actually. IL-62 is louder

This is Russia’s equivalent to the Boeing 777-9

Had an honor to fly in il 86 ..more than once.

[@ELPaso1990TX]

Wow love seeing the elevator in use. Not even seen any videos of the L1011 elevator in use or the Boeing 747 cart elevator.

[@wallingtonlin9208]

Amazing design! I have never seen a lift for people in an aircraft in my life.

[@leecloth8460]

The elevators are probably mainly designed for the galley carts

[@zloychechen5150]

They are, but if you had a chance to ride one, would you not?)

The boarding on the IL-86 was...odd. Instead of boarding straight to the main deck you enter these lower vestibules. There were plans for a "high capacity" version with seats in these lower areas, too but I guess none were built. An odd bird, for sure.

[@cndam]

Yup, to facilitate operation in airfields without a lot of supporting ground equipment. it was a very self-reliant plane.

[@spider23000]

The reply above mine is correct. For some of the airfields in the Soviet Union with little or no infrastructure, it was expected that as well as being able to board from a remote stand, people would actually take their luggage on board with them and hand it over at the desk on the lower level, rather than having ground services do it. I don't think it ever really happened so they used the lower level for passengers to hand in their coats and hand luggage.

[@NickVanCash]

The most claustrophobic elevator in the world

[@Hadegel]

Would suck to get stuck

[@josieann5031]

Just seeing it made me anxious. No way I could ever get on that.

[@upanddownadventures]

Wow!!! I wondered if there were any aircraft that had an elevator on board! Do you know if there are any other manufacturers of aircraft besides Ilyushin that make/made aircraft with an elevator on board? Are there 2 elevators next to each other? Does the aircraft have 2 elevators total? Does the elevator have no internal door (car door) or is there a car door, but the elevator will run with it open? Is the elevator designed to be used in flight, or only when the aircraft is on the ground, or only when the aircraft is stationary? Were the elevators used by members of the public, or only the crew? Where was this video filmed? Is this at a museum, or other location that the public might be able to visit?

[@2ndLakeProductions]

I think a few larger airliners have had elevators. Don't quote me, but the 747, DC-10, L1011 Tristar, and probably a few others.

[@pablodescamisado]

elevators were used to deliver food from the kitchen on the lower deck to the cabin. it's not a museum, and it's not open for public to visit. it's in Moscow airport, planes just stand there for learning purposes.

[@GlamorousTitanic21]

@upanddownadventures the L-1011 Tristar has an elevator but it was mainly used for transporting food from the galley below the passenger areas. If you think about it it was a stroke of genius to put the galley below the passengers and use the space where it could have been for more seats.

[@SuperBooboo02]

dc 10 and L1011 had elevators as well

[@mariuszwaligora8623]

Gratulacje powodzenia

[@Thor2343]

You could have shown the ladder. Does it have a connection with the passengers or only with the flight deck?

[@TaolafanJackJ97]

[@CyberTranceHero69]

I got to fly in one of these from Tashkent to Moscow it was a very long trip.

[@arezoazerbiellopez8830]

No one's gonna talk about the barking dog

[@hagki]

It is unique from other type of aircraft

[@NaenaeGaming]

Basically aircraft that have lower deck galleys have lifts like these for the food carts.

[@IZAQ_]

The lifts are soo tiny

[@drunklorry3406]

They are not for people, they are for food trolleys

[@737Garrus]

A thin squeeze indeed, that's what happens when You ride an elevator originally intended for food and beverage carts.

[@刘姗姗-q2v]

Where can we see this plane？Could u send me a location, please?

[@Reiden199]

Hi! It's in the civil aviation institute facility, near the SVO airport (55.985603, 37.442365). Bad for us, that it's not allowed for visitors. Check out the Monino aviation museum, there's a lot of interesting planes.

[@smasherplaysrb4958]
