Hello and happy new year!
The Berlin Conference on Libya 2020 brought a lot of very interesting government aircraft to Berlin including A340s, IL-96s, Gulfstreams and even the Turkish 747-8!
The next morning, Putins cars had to be picked up and flown back to Russia, so these two IL-76MDs were ferried back from SXF to TXL.
Of course, their immensely loud departures were must-films for me ;)
(Although, my image stabilizer didn't like the idea)
Enjoy these Soviet workhorses departing in the middle of our usual A320 spams :D
