Il-76TD-90VD

Il-76TD-90VDDespite the high performance, engines and avionics of the Il-76 aircraft leave much to be desired. Excessive noise and emission of pollutants to the environment, made it impossible for flights of Il-76 over the border. In this regard, the engines D-30KP replaced with PS-90A-76, reinforced center section and updated equipment. In particular, instead of flight, navigation and sighting complex K-II-76 established “Kupol-III-76M-VD” shown on two multifunction liquid crystal display. Use PS-90A-76 is allowed to increase the capacity of the machine to 2 t, the height of the airfield up to 3000 m above sea level and a range of almost 1,000 km.

AEROBATIC TRAINING

TRAINING FLIGHTDevelop some automaticity in managing the cord of the model during takeoff and horizontal flight, you can begin to build more complex apparatus. It will help you to learn how to perform all the basics of flight complex: forward and backward loops, turn and slide flight “on the back”. Unfortunately, your first robust model of these figures can not do too heavy reinforced design. Therefore, flight training is based on a different principle: the minimum weight, which gives good flight characteristics at maximum ease, which will allow you to repair the microplane for a few hours and re-enter the track or in the field.
