Anapa Airport, Black Sea
Tu-154M at Anapa airport - complete with Aeroflot & Continental Airways
(not to confused wth the US Continental AIRLINES) titles.
Apparently RA-85777 is an ex-Bashkirian Airlines Tu-154 and it taxied out minutes later.
Also on the Anapa ramp, in glorious sunshine, was this Tu-154M of Sibir Airlines....
....and this Tu-154M of Atlant Soyuz.
Whilst we were there, this Tu-134A-3 of the State Airline 'Rossiya' arrived.....
.....and disgorged some VIP's.
This Yak-40 belonging to 'Russian Aircraft corporation "MIG" was parked on the grass....
....as was this An-26B of the Russian Border Guards service - note the red bands on the rudder and tailplane.
A Yak-42 of Kuban Airlines - in the same livery as the one we had flown in from Moscow to Krasnodar.
Meanwhile, back at Gelendzhik.......
The Aerovolga La-8 had been fixed and took to the water for its display....
....powered by twin 250hp M-337C piston engine, it proved to be a sprightly performer.
This time it had no problems on the ramp!
