These are all listed as IL-62s first registered (in Cuba) in 1990 or 1991 on http://www.users.totalise.co.uk/~spotter/cu.xls The only IL-76 that seems to be left on the Cuban list is CU-T1258, registered in Nov 1984. On the other hand, the list still includes Viscounts, Britannias, and Super Constellations. Only two were ever delivered to Cuba, both IL-76MD updated military versions The DC-10 that crashed at Guatemala City in 1999 was not on the Cuban registry, being wet-leased from the French company AOM, I believe.
