I would really like to know how well the IL-96M (the one with the more
efficient Western engines and aviaonics) compares with A340 and 777. From what
I have read, the thing flies similar range, less gas and is surely cheaper.
Additionally, I wonder why they don't have TU-204 series stuff. Those
things are studly aircraft.
As far as the -62 goes, I am guessing it was someone important taking a
