The gate-guard Il-14 - looking even more forlorn than last year
Monino Museum
New arrival at Monino - Sukhoi Su-17UM3
The Myasischev M-17 'Stratosphera' has had a face lift.
Dominating the central area is this Tu-95M Bear
The Great Patriotic War display has also had a lick of paint - as shown on this P-63 Kingcobra.
The A-20 Havoc has been cleaned up......
....as has the B-25 Mitchell.
Still guarding the entrance is the Tu-4 'Bull'.
Having purchased the Amodel kit, I had to do a complete walkround of the mighty M-50 'Bounder'!
The main hangar has been rebuilt - but is not yet open.
Because Monino is quite close to Chkalovskaya, departing aircraft fly right over - this is a Tu-134UBL......
......an Il-76 transport....
.....an immaculate 'Rossiya' Il-18.....
.....a colourful Tu-134UBL.....
....and this Il-20.
Chkalovskaya Airbase
Resident Tu-154B-2

Il-18....
One of our keen-eyed members spotted that this derelict An-12 had the same serial - RA-12124.....
....as this airworthy An-12PP!!
This immaculate An-12BK sports the same Regiment insignia of 223 Flight....
....as also seen on the Tu-154.
Further down the transport ramp was a lineup of Antonov An-72's..
....while across the ramp, this Il-76 was preparing for departure.
Our final stop was back on the main ramp - where the Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Centre had this L-39......
.....as well as this superb Tu-154.
Another Tu-134UBL on the Gagarin ramp - this one with 'Rossiya' titles.
Final shot of the day was this An-12PP being loaded with a jet engine.
