Posted: Wed Dec 24, 2008 5:26 pmAlways had a soft spot for Soviet aircraft, be they weapons of war or peacetime transport for the masses - they all have a certain "look" about them... that sort of industrial strength tool/Thunderbirds look 
Bit of trawling around on Avsim.ru and I found a Tupolev Tu-154M for FSX, and a few airport sceneries - Vnukovo in Moscow and Kazan, just outside the city of the same name.
Just a short flight between the two lastnight, 407nm (754.25km since Russia uses the metric system)
And just for anyone else out there with a Tupolev foot fetish (their undercarriage layout and the way it retracts is bloody neat!)...
Merry Christmas to all
