This issue is only relevant for young women for obvious reasons. The rest of us are mostly happy to talk to each other.

I worked on initial testing equipment in Zhukovsky in TsAGI in tunel T101. Model IL 114 was made 1:2 and was made in Soko, Mostar & Utva, Belgrade. Testing system was made by Pupin, Belgrade. I am glad if something comes out of new attempt.

Just as I felt that it was about time to watch something from Skyships. I found that there was no uploaded video... then as I rechecked it suddenly appeared... Just as I wanted to watch his videos hahahaha

Thank you Sky. I am a fan. It seems that the Ilyushin design managers could not make up their mind on the product design. We know that ILYUSHIN knows how to to design are aircraft . For example IL 62 , unsurpassed in its own class, even some 60 years ago. Plus the name ILYUSHIN is such a nice sounding name, at least to me. Please give them my message to ILYUSHIN managers: '' Dear product managers, please make up your mind and create something perfect, like IL 62''. The Engineers , in any country , produce what managers ask for it. ... California.

I found your channel yesterday through the Comac video, I'm on a binge since lol. I appreciate that you cover so many lesser known aircraft.

Thanks for another great video Sky. I always love the ones on the Russian or former soviet block equipment. Keep up the great work 👍

Great video as always, thanks!

Hi from PH 🇵🇭

It looks a very nice airplane to travel. I hope sell nice to keep the production line open.

Really like your realistic view onto the aircraft. Thumbs up!

thanks for the video Sky, you rock!

speaking of Russian commercial aircraft like the Il-114-300 regional turboprop airliner, there's another Russian aircraft that deserves special mention . . . and that being the Ilyushin Il-76MF-90A multi mission heavy lift transport aircraft, which is a stretched variant of the Il-76MD multi mission heavy lift transport aircraft . . . the stretched Il-76MF-90A airframe would incorporate new turbofan engines, advanced composite fuselage & wing structures, airframe reinforcements, next gen fly-by-wire flight controls, full glass cockpit & new avionics etc . . . only one Il-76MF-90A multi mission heavy lift transport aircraft was ever sold, to the Royal Jordanian Airlines sometime in 2000 . . . the stretched Il-76MF-90A variant had double the payload capacity of the Il-76MD-90A & 63% greater range . . . and that too without the luxury of mid-air refuelling . . . Ilyushin should launch the Ilyushin Il-76MF-90A multi mission heavy lift transport aircraft once again, in current day market . . . it'll compete with the likes of C-17A Globemaster III multi mission heavy lift transport aircraft & AIRBUS A400M multi mission heavy lift transport aircraft . . . or the Kawasaki C-2B multi mission medium transport aircraft for that matter . . .

Another well-deserved compliment on your channel and your presentations. Thank you for all of your videos.... from a long-time subscriber

Nice looking plane. Interesting that it has a low wing, unlike most turboprops.

Skyships, a 1980s resurgence of turboprops designed in the 1950s. I completely missed this happening. I remember the HS 748 which was a feeder liner with STOL properties then in the 1980s the SAAB and De Haviland Canada (Canada De Haviland not de Haviland?) later the ATR and BAE ATP but beyond the HS 748 a 1950s designed turboprop prevalent in the 1950s. As stated, the HS 748 was more a feeder liner than a regional airliner. You are most probably right Skyships, I just can't quite understand the stories beginning? Edit *"but beyond the HS 748 a 1950s designed turboprop prevalent in the 1950s."* Meant to read *but beyond the HS 748 a 1950s designed turboprop prevalent in the 1980s.*

The IL-114 bears a superficial external resemblance to the HS748. Horizon (or Cascade) Airlines in the Pacific NW used to operate these aircraft in the 1980s.

Hello from Toronto .

The multiple slotted flaps should provide field performance superior to the western competition, now that they can be fully deployed

Marvelous USSR engineering!

A plus of England :-)

Please resume Tupolev 144 production as well?

Waiting for sj 100 videos

Its a very aesthetically pleasing plane to look at!

I can't see this selling in volume.

You need to do a video on AN-124 Ruslan.

She's a pretty plane, and she needs a proper series life. There is always a home for a C-47 sized aircraft, much like the Il-114.

If they added two more engines and reduced the length of the wing, it would have been better. It could have reached 600 km / h, and they changed the engine.

These Russian engines on IL 114-300 can further be improved. The propeller engine installed on Russian bombers Tu-95 are the best though it may not be fuel efficient but it is reliable and robust further Russia have plenty of fuel in other words Russian fuel is affordable this will make the project feasible. Russia should consider installing Tu 160 type propeller engines because of its reliability and at hard times when Russia is facing sanctions jeopardizing the new projects. This also reduces dependency on foreign suppliers of engine components.

What a super aircraft

As an westerner, i see the Il-114 as a pretty "boring", common aircraft, unlike the disruptive, innovative, sometimes strange soviet airlines concept. And all this "boringness", this "commoness", seems to be the savior of the airline, that makes it a rather modern and common airplane with relatively little changes on project.

Happy to see Russian aeronautic industry is resilent and resisting snactions

They'll get it done as they always do but it will be an inefficient and obsolete aircraft from a western standpoint from the moment it rolls off the line.
