This brought back fond memories of the two years I spent in Mozambique (1985-1987) as Deputy Director of Operations for CARE International. The government assigned our logistics team a war-weary An-26 that took a crew of five to fly. The tires were so bald you could see patches of fabric. My house key could open the cockpit door. I took every chance I could to fly with supply runs out to the 10 provinces in wartime. My most memorable trip was lying among bales of donated blankets from Japan, flying from Maputo to Vilanculos, with the rear cargo door open.

In the 70s my (American) parents used to fly Aeroflot pretty much exclusively around Europe or Asia esp Japan, or that general area. I don't know how they managed to do that but my mom just bought the tickets through Japan Airlines and no one asked anything more. It was a fraction of the cost (of American airlines) and the money saved allowed us to stay at some really nice resorts and have great holidays in other places around the world! Mother should have published a book called, "How to Travel the World on a Budget." Some stopovers of course, we couldnt leave the (soviet era) hotels with a no nonsense lady seated at the end of every corridor but it was just a layover. My mother always gave little gifts like coffee, hygiene items, lipstick, etc. Some employees accepted the gifts, some did not. Those were quite fun days, I kid you not! With mother I suppose ignorance is bliss but she claims she saved like 60% in tickets and hotels.

Noel Philips - You should travel to some of the local airports in the United States. Start with the Pullman-Moscow Airport where the same people sell tickets, check baggage, operate security, and perform tarmac operations. And, the aircraft are prop planes. My first flight was on a DC-3 flying out of Pasco. A somewhat terrifying experience as the flight pattern on takeoff was to head toward one of the nearby hills and catch a thermal to gain altitude. Actually, since the advent of TSA, they probably have a dedicated TSA agent doing security at Pullman-Moscow who harasses passengers out of boredom.

Did you bring your cellophane tape in case the engines needed reinforcement? Love the advanced state of the art communication technology. The coffee looks like the kind given in US skid row homeless shelters.The mood lighting in the water closet is an elegant touch but anyone over 5' 2" needs to be careful not to hit their head on the ceiling.

The An-26 also lacks the sound insulation panels that the An-24 has, which is why it's a lot noisier. I dig the essentially Soviet lighted signs on board, at the front of the aircraft.

But that's pure Soviet aviation... built not for comfort, but for one purpose only as simply as possible.

The way Noel tossed around the word “Soviet” makes him sound like a Bald fan

People who know me, know that I get frequently into trouble for filming. Since I am obsessed with filming the Sights & the Sounds of these beauties, I do nothing in these parts of the world, without obtaining prior permission through local channels. If you film randomly in Russia, trouble is what you are asking for. I got the impression, that this paranoid behavior in Russia (and elsewhere) arises from the fact, that employees are afraid that local "safety practises" are put in to public, especially as Russian planes do not fulfill standard international safety requirements (smoking in the cockpit, etc.). And... Russians - especially in the rural areas (Polyarny, the most infamous example...) - mistrust foreigners... Great footages Noel !! And brilliant job done.

Kostroma = 200 northeast of Moscow. Imagining that place from mid-October to April just gives me the willies.

I've flown on IL-76 and An-12s maybe 200k miles in Iraq/Afghanistan. Old Russian cargo planes, especially the military ones, are impressive but also scary.

I travel as much as possible, but never to Russia. That is a pretty unique experience. Lately, I’ve been infatuated with different corners of Asia and am always impressed by how modern and advanced they are by American standards. I often feel like I’m looking at the future. This looked like a wonderful time machine the other direction.
