Notes:

Mfd. 1980 originally as IL-76M for export. Del. to Iraqi Airways March 14 1980 as YI-AKU. Back to the Soviet Union to Ministry of General Machine-building (MOM) September 16 1987 as CCCP-76754. Cvt. IL-76T. In 1993 received Russian prefix. 1994 to Aviatrans, 1999 to Aviast. Sixteen months after this ramp shot was made, October 19 2009 this Ayk Avia plane had aborted its take off run at Sharjah, due to high vibration on accelerating for lift-off. The pilot-in-command instantly aborted the take off by retarding the throttles, and deploying the thrust reversers normally decelerated the giant. The incident investigation revealed, that the vibration caused by the disintegration of the left hand inboard aft wheel at 83 knots (about 155 km/h) on take-off run, due to progressive undetected fatigue stress. Last seen active November 20 2009 in Sharjah as EK-76155.
