Notes
Time Machine in action: after 10 years of storage this Ilyushin 96 is flying again!
Many photos thru:This Ilyushin Il-96-300 Domodedovo Airlines

flying for the first time after 10 years in storage.

Yes, the "port side"/left-handside/rechterzijde looked rather neglected...
https://tankasan.livejournal.com/189294.htmlThe last IL-96 left Domodedovo ...
And flew to eternal rest in Zhukovsky, where, as practice shows with the previous sides, nothing will happen to him anymore.
He freed up the occupied space in the parking lot at Domodedovo and went to his parents in the Ilyushin Design Bureau.
And what will continue to do there with him, is unknown to science ...
Perhaps they will remove the third part of the “Crew”,
and maybe they will transport the “Patriot” park , who knows, who knows ...
In any case, today was the last chance to see this plane in the sky,
and many took advantage of it,
because this time normal people did not squeeze the departure information.

Исторический Момент в Домодедово / Взлет Третьего Ил-96 Простоявшего 10 лет + Заход в Жуковском
A historic moment in Domodedovo / Takeoff of the Il-96,
which had stood for 10 years . Domodedovo Airport 2018
Il-96 RA-96006 stood exactly 10 years, one month and 4 days.
On the platform of Domodedovo airport.
Stood as the airline which he owned for a long time no longer.
The Domodedovo integrated squadron was created on the basis of the Moscow Domodedovo Airport commissioned on March 25, 1964
by transferring the 206th, 211st and 212th flight units from Vnukovo.
He specialized in the operation of long-range aircraft.
The basis of the airline's fleet was IL-62M.
Together with them in the park were five sides of the IL-96-300, two of which previously belonged to the Krasnoyarsk Airlines.
The last flight of the RA-96006 was made in October 2008,
then it was deposited at Domodedovo Airport.
And so it happened the stars that the IL-96-300 took off again.
Yes, for this a large preparation was carried out with the installation of new engines,
testing of all systems and long runs ...
The board was put into operation on July 1, 1993.
He flew less than half of his watch resources.
For everyone who is passionate about aviation, this is a great event to see this type of aircraft in the air.
-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- -----
IL-96-300 / RA-96006 (as well as 96009, 96013) will now be located at the M. Gromov Flight Research Institute.
The purpose of the transfer remains a state secret.
Time will tell what will happen with this board ...
But one thing is for sure,
he unfortunately will not return to Domodedovo Airport anymore.
Thanks for attention.

https://www.facebook.com/AirlinerExperi ... =3&theaterBut fortunately the trio of Ilyushin Il-96-300 that
remained abandoned at the Moscow-Domodedovo International Airport along the last,
unlike other aircraft in the same situation that were dismantled and sold as old iron,
could have the opportunity to return to the skies in the near future
in the colors of the Russian Air Force or as a flight test platform.
This is because on this Monday, November 12, the Ilyushin Il-96 registration RA-96006 (s / n 74393201003) won the heavens again -
for a few minutes - after nearly a decade on the ground.
After a preparation process that included the engine exchange with another model already moved out of Domodedovo,
the plane was taken off in the direction of the Gromov Flight Research Institute (GFRI) in Moscow-Zhukovsky.
In December of last year (2017),
the first Ilyushin that belonged to Domodedovo Airlines, this registration RA-96009,
was transferred to Moscow-Zhukovsky, followed by the second model seven months later, registration RA-96013.
The future of this trio is unknowable,
but according to sources,
the possibility of seeing them in the skies in the near future is great,
since it would be logical to spend money to regain airworthiness only to transport it and abandon it at another airport.
The rumors in the Russian aeronautical medium indicate
that the Russian Air Force could have acquired the aircraft to modernize them and
include them in their fleet of Air Replenishment (REVO) or Early Warning and Airborne Control (AWACS),
reducing the waiting time by the assembly of new units.
Also, they could be used as test platforms in flight and
on land by its manufacturer Iluyshin,
which still maintains active production to meet the country's military demands.

An aircraft so scarce there are currently only three flying with a civilian airline,
the remaining twelve or so performing government and Air Force operations.
Ilyushin IL-96-300 (RA-96006) of former airline Domodedovo Airlines
took to the air last Wednesday (12th Nov) after a decade in storage.............
The aircraft first delivered 1992 to Aeroflot was transferred to Domodedovo Airlines –
Moscow in 1995 where it served until the company ceased trading in 2008.
The airline operated three IL-96-300’s each accommodating
up to 300 passengers, from it’s base at Domodedovo Airport.
RA-96006 has been idle for ten years but over the last four months
has been brought back to airworthiness levels permitting it to perform flight once again.
While it was parked up it’s engines were removed and left to rust near by.
Speculation points to the aircraft being flown to a graveyard to be scrapped.
Others suggest this not to be the case as why go to the expense of returning the plane to airworthiness
when it could have been taken apart at Domodedovo Airport.
Leaving it’s undercarriage locked in the landing configuration
which includes that additional center-line bogey like on the Airbus A340,
the flight appears to have taken RA-96006 the short distance to Zhukovsky Airport
and home to Ilyushin Design Bureau
where it will receive a full over-haul and maintenance make-over.
The IL-96, a 3-3-3 cabin layout in economy was unusual in not having overhead bins in the center section.
This also resulted in no air-con vents or reading lights above these passengers but
rather these items could be found in the seat-back in front.
The question is if RA-96006 is being readied for a return to passenger service with an airline
due to recently strained relations between Russia and the West.
Even though policy suggests Russia’s favour to return to home produced aircraft,
it’s unlikely this IL-96 will see active commercial service, due to it’s age, uneconomical fuel consumption,
high operating costs and so on.
A more realistic outcome is that 006 will perform a role with one of the Government Agencies.
Currently it’s sister-ship IL-96 RA-96009 is due
to join the Flight Research Institute, M.Gromov once released from Ilyushin at Zhukovsky.
