100 landings`s & takeoff`s today with my favorite video clips of east european planes I have filmed within the last 7 years. This time I only included airplanes by Ilyushin; Antonov, Tupolev and Yakovlev. I am mainly interested in classic and unique planes and if you would like to see unique looking planes you don` t get around production companies like Antonov or Ilyushin.

The first aircraft in this video is an Antonov An74 which operated a cargo charter flight to Düsseldorf. The aircraft is especially designed for unpaved runways, for example in africa. The gravel from the ground doesn` t get in the engines that easy and that` s why they are mounted on top of the wings.

The second aircraft shows one of my favorite aircrafts, the AN22 of ADB. I filmed this plane at Leipzig about three years ago, when it operated a cargo charter flight from Leipzig to Bremen, where it picked up some cargo. Due to the short runway at Bremen the AN22 returned to Leipzig afterwards for a fuel stop and then continued to Baku. I saw that plane in motion three times that day which is an unforgetable occasion.

I hope you enjoyed my easteu airplane mix and new videos every tuesday and friday.
