Russian Aircraft in the United States

[25or6to4]

the Tu-154 was a gift from Romanian dictator Ceasescu to Guyana. Back in 86 during a blizzard it was the only aircraft to land at JFK. YR-TPJ (I googled the registration) I am a stupid uber aviation geek as well. I have a weird love for all planes Russian/Ukranian

i confess to geekdom too, i still look up everytime a plane flies over,and i am equally content slipping onto a grass strip,or doing 170 till the pivot turn on the canarsie approach ! Its all good !
