Notes:

Reproduced from a slide. Incident and controversy followed this aircraft from not long after this photo was taken, and it was leased to Air Pass as 3D-RTA. Subsequent registrations (do, or may) include TL-ACY, UN-76007, UN-76011, UP-17622 and UP-17635. As 4L-AWA this aircraft was involved in an impoundment at Bangkok, it is for the interested reader to research and decide for themselves on the background to this event. After release this example is reported to have been registered as 3X-GFR, under which it operated for a while. It is last reported as being the Ilyushin that is or was derelict at Lilongwe (Malawi).
