The first thing that caught my eye when I looked at the photos of this IL-62 model is the paint job – it’s just really neat and precise. The smooth white and blue colors of Air Ukraine pop against the backdrop, and the decals look perfectly in place. This model really has a clean and sharp appearance, which adds to its appeal.

Now, about the real IL-62 – it’s a classic piece of aviation history. This aircraft, when it was flying high, was one of the longest-range airliners in the world. Imagine a time when getting a flight like this was a real event! It was introduced in the 1960s and quickly became a symbol of cutting-edge jet technology for its era. Flying across continents with its distinctive roar must have been something special.

To wrap it up, this model is a great way to appreciate not just the technical achievements of the IL-62 but also its role in aviation history. Vladimir Vladimirovich has done a great job with Zvezda’s kit, making it both a cool addition to any collection and a neat throwback to those pioneering days in the sky.
