Has anyone ever travelled on...?

An Antonov AN 74?

I'm guessing that I will get no replies to this thread. And I probably don't deserve any.

1. I'll reply

[Whitacre D_WI]

2. No, but I'd love to!

[dolgoruky]

Why?

It's a serious question.

[Whitacre D_WI]

11. I like flying.

And I always want to fly on something new.

[dolgoruky]

13. It's a nice plane.

Doesn't look too safe, and it's a bit noisy, but I survived my flight.

3. Not unless

someone here is a Russian Air Force Pilot

4. I'll reply.

I hope you mean IN and Antonov AN 74.

Heehee.

7. haha!

Reminds me of an old Carlin routine. "Fuck that. I'm riding in the plane."

5. Sounds like a vintage aircraft, I'm guessing?

[Qanisqineq]

6. I'll reply

No, I haven't travelled on whatever that is. :)

8. One of these?

[HEyHEY]

9. Hey! I flew on one of those to get to the Rep of Georgia....

No I didn't! I've never been to the Rep of Georgia or in one of those planes

[dolgoruky]

10. That's the one!

Krasivaya!!!

12. They've had 8 "hull loss incidents." So what.

I still wanna fly on one.

[dolgoruky]

14. Good Luck!

There's plenty still in service. I flew in one about 5 years ago, from Vilnius to Moscow. The hull remained intact throughout the entire journey.

I'm kicking myself that I never took a picture.
