IL-96. A photo. Video. Interior layout. Characteristics. Reviews.
IL-96 is the first Soviet passenger airliner for long-haul flights having a wide fuselage. The Il-96 aircraft was developed by the Ilyushin design bureau at the end of the eighties of the last century on the basis of the previous machine - IL-86. The new aircraft was different wings that have a large area and the installation of new engines PS-turboventelyatornyh 90A. On the plane there are four such motors, each thrust of 16000 kg.
The reason for the creation of new passenger aircraft is the constant development of our society and an increase in those who wish to use the services of airlines. That is why the new long-haul passenger aircraft Il-96 was created. The main feature of this model is that it has a wide fuselage, which allows you to accommodate even more passengers and provide them with comfortable flight conditions. With the use of large aircraft, the airline can carry more passengers at a time, and this reduces the price of this service. All these factors forced the leadership of the USSR to think about the creation of a new machine, which became Il-96. It was designed on the basis of the already existing aircraft IL-86.
Where applicable passenger aircraft IL-96
IL-96 is a long-haul aircraft, which carries passengers. This aircraft model is able to carry out flights over long distances without landing. The main objective of this model was replaced by single-aisle aircraft, which were used on flights both within the country and abroad. Before the creation of the new machine IL-96 all carriage of passengers carried little old IL-62 and IL-86. The need for a new wide-bodied car has grown every year since started active growth of the number of passengers who wish to use the services of airlines. Also, the planes that had a fuselage could provide a more comfortable flight conditions for clients.
History of the IL-96 and its modifications
By developing a new model of aircraft designers began to 1978 year. The basis of the new development was put existing domestic dalnomagistralny IL-86D. The designers have used as a basis for the IL-86 83-right up to the year, began to appear until advanced technology that made the creators to revise the draft and to use more advanced materials and technologies. The designers were faced with the fact that the assemblies and parts they have developed is far from being relevant, and the world aircraft industry has leaped forward.
It is for these reasons, the designers had to retreat from their plans, and to develop a fundamentally new machine, which has been the basis for all subsequent versions of the new machine IL-96. For the first time a new IL-96 took off in October 88 years, and in 89, was presented in Paris at the World Airshow. During the test, IL spent a lot of testing, the main of them are flying at a distance. On the basis of a new machine has been created a lot of new modifications, which were more specialized.
Modification of IL-96-400 has been improved compared to the base model as the engine power was increased in it, as well as the number of seats for passengers. It was created and freight model Elah, which is actively used in our time. Even more progressive model was the Il-96M, which was developed jointly with US airlines. But this model today exists in a single copy and is only used for its presentation at the air show in the world. As for the standard model of IL-96, it entered into mass production only 1993 years.
Description passenger aircraft IL-96
The aircraft is built monoplane scheme, which has a low-wing, as well as classic tail of the fuselage. The main purpose of this unit is 300 carriage of passengers, their luggage and other goods, which make up 40 tons. Range transport of passengers is between 4 9 to thousands of kilometers, depending on the modification of the aircraft. Designers have been provided for the maximum flight distance in 11 thousand kilometers, so may change the number of seats for passengers in the cabin.
The fuselage of the aircraft IL-96 has the same diameter as the previous model, but the length of the new smaller Silt on 5 meters than the old IL-86. The designers together with experts in aerodynamics conducted fruitful work on the development of effective new wing of the aircraft. Has also increased the area of the tail feather in the event of failure of one engine, this innovation has helped to keep the plane in flight.
The chassis of the aircraft includes three main pillars, which are located behind and take into account the center of mass. Also included in the system chassis front support. Each back support consists of four wheels are equipped with brake efficiency. The front support has two wheels and has brake system. All-wheel drive, which includes in IL-96 chassis are the same size and pressure.
Separation from the earth provide four engine model FS-90A. Danae model of turbofan engines is quite efficient and economical. Speaking about the fuel system, it should be noted that it is automatic, but you can run it manually if necessary. Fuel in the system comes from the 9 tanks. Eight tanks located in the wings, and a clearance plane.
Due to the fact that IL-96 is a double-decker boat, it can be used in two main versions: a mixed and tourism. The first and main option is the tourist. Its special feature is that the passenger seats are placed in rows of 3 9 places. When using this method of placement in the front cabin can accommodate 66 people, and in the rear cabin - 234. In the mixed version of the aircraft is divided into three classes and can accommodate passengers 235.
IL-96 in commercial operation
In commercial operation this machine came only in the summer of 93, the first flight was from Russia to the USA. At the first stages of use, this unit conducted international flights around the globe, and then began to service and fly within our country. In domestic transport, he linked the cities of Russia at both distant and short distances. In 2005-2006 years, the Elians began to be exported for the cordon, namely three cars were sold to Cuba, one of them being a presidential class. Nowadays, domestic airlines widely use IL-96 to transport their passengers. Also, some companies have truck models in their hangars.
Elah most widely used in our country, two airlines - is "Aeroflot", as well as Cubana. IL-96 has a great advantage at long range, because it is more spacious and comfortable for passengers than its narrow-bodied counterparts. Passengers themselves say about the advantages of this model over the others.
Unfortunately, this airplane could not reach very high in popularity due to its high price and large enough fuel, it is also influenced by other economic factors. At the beginning of the year 2009 aircraft designers have raised the issue of withdrawal of IL-96 from the production. This problem occurs mainly due to the high competition of foreign models of passenger aircraft.

That article, that many comments are imbued with false patriotism.
Convenience salon scoop, engines are not competitive - noisy and voracious. That's all the reasons why the car did not conquer the world. No matter how many people do not stifle a throat in a patriotic frenzy.
who flew Boeing. Boeing 777 most settling plane. I had to fly it a lot of time from Moscow to New York and back several times. disgusting. I flew on Aeroflot. That is the question. Why Aeroflot buys this shit
Reactive ILs than one passenger killed a Boenga, AU ???
I fly to Kamchatka to Moscow prchti 9 hours in the air if you sit close at the tail section of the plane there between rows of cramped if peridium sdyachy passenger seat reclines smpinku it becomes very much the case with udobno.nado podumat.ya ubralby one row of seats and spread series.
Russia! Get up off his knees, while there is a chance! The Union had a good aircraft, take estafetu.chinovnikov traitors in the area.
Personal impressions of the aircraft most luchshie.Letat happened twice - in 2000 from Moscow to Istanbul and 2004 from Krasnoyarsk to Moscow. In 2000 carcasses after struck by its size, double-decked (as on an ocean liner), rows of seats, leaving, as I then thought, somewhere over the horizon. And rise it's something! Feels like, flew along with the planet, felt such power !!! It was then, and Boeing and Airbus (but very large was not). But respect for the IL-96 remained until now. And maybe not even respect and love, so that's sunk into the soul and memory
I read article Il-96. You write tsitiruyu-

Podcherkivayu- Discontinued - high price and demand of aircraft !! Russian ??
And in the article-Revival IL-96.

According to the preliminary consideration of the positive aspects, experts distinguish 5 the main reasons why it is necessary to restore the production of the IL-96.
Low price;
High reliability;
Low maintenance cost;
Efficiency exports to other countries;
Ability to transfer domestic airlines to operate the Russian civil aeronautical equipment.
Vydelyayu- low price ... and so on ..
So where is the truth dear hacks? The fact that the ship was taken out of production for such lobbying statesmen like Gaidar, Khristenko, Koh no one in doubt. But for what you do not write the truth is not clear. Sincerely.
Each year, somewhere fly, returning from abroad, my wife and seasick (before and after that never seasick) ... It was a feeling that he is like the waves of light was ...
He 4 engine !!! This security 100 !! It can fly on one!
I flew IL-96 1996 year in Sochi. It was during this flight, we were in a bad weather. Undoubtedly, the shaking is not childish, but other problems as well, in general - do not bother. Here, for example A 330 also shakes, so I do not see the difference. And in general I think the Il-96 different plane!
I happened to fly to IL-96 a couple of times. And unfortunately for these few flights I got into a terrible turbulence in the Himalayas, then the car just fell through tens of meters into air holes. After I got into this situation, I can proudly say that IL-96 is the most reliable aircraft in the world. If I was always given a choice, I would choose only Il-96. If someone thinks that this machine is too noisy, then I can argue, since when there is a pressure drop, in any plane will lay the ears. In order not to appear such unpleasant sensations, you just need to blow your nose, take a sip of water. There are no such planes that would not shake in the air.
I IL-96 flown a couple of times. I like this plane, as for me as it is quite large, the legs can be pulled out, and the back of the chair recline, so as you'd like. In the salon, which is located at the end of the tail is very space - a lot, so if a long flight, you can even look a bit like. I believe that some of the aircraft, in contrast to IL-96 generally are not suitable for transporting passengers.
Speaking of comfort, then my opinion is IL-96 absolutely no in this respect. Here, for example, discuss the chair, they are quite uncomfortable, and you know why? Because they fashioned Colour Options. The entrance to the cabin is narrow, it is impossible to break up with someone, especially when on the road there is a flight attendant carrying breakfast. As for caustic comfort, so he also wants the best, because all the time you hear creaking and crashing. So when I read reviews that IL-96 just gorgeous plane, I do not understand it.
I have never seen an armchair in a plane dermantinom. By the noise, the same B737 screams louder at times. Even from the sound of the APU you are singing! And yes - Il never broke up! Than not an argument? And if you want more comfort - buy tickets for business or first class.
People suffering from a lack of comfort in the IL-96 salon would like to remind that it is better to fly safely from point A to point B than comfortable to crash down onto the ground. Above this is worth considering.
it is not an indicator, the chair established by airlines airline's request, and if they are stuffed tightly in any plane will be uncomfortable
I found th! Is very unusuak. Did you hear about the flying dogs?
Engines on IL-96M not Partt Whitney and Pratt & Whitney
