Exclusive flight on the Soviet Tu-134 airliner

The Tu-134 airliner is a legend of Soviet passenger aviation. Its production began in 1966 and ended in 1989. It is considered one of the most mass-produced aircraft USSR, which testifies to its reliability and successful design. The author of the channel "OKandrew Planespotting Channel" decided to remind viewers what it was like to fly in the USSR. Now it is unlikely that such a flight will be possible - all Tu-134s in Russia have already been decommissioned. The last ones, according to rumors, were removed from flights in 2019. You can still find Tu-134 - there are many of them at airports, where the planes are used as monuments and museums.

The flight filmed by the blogger took place in 2017. Then a group of fans of Soviet aviation simply chipped in and rented a plane for a large group. They flew to Kaluga and then returned. After watching the video, you will be able to soak up that very atmosphere. Moreover, you can imagine yourself both as passengers and pilots. After all, the views were filmed from different angles. The Tu-134 is perfectly configured, the engines work without interruption. By the way, many believe that this plane can be returned to serial production. Yes, it is beautiful and technically not as outdated as it seems. But alas - this is unlikely to happen, too much time has passed since 1989 ...
