Than why so many people from GDR wanted to escape to West Berlin or die trying? And why German goverment has to spend billions of euro every year to help ex-GDR regions?

I think it was only 14 people on average per month that left the DDR for West Berlin, it wasn't exactly mass exodus, not 14 people leaving, 14 attempts.

It's not an Il-18 but an IL-14, in fact it's DM-SAZ, the first VEB Flugzeugwerke Dresden licence built Ilyushin IL-14! As far as I'm aware the aircraft still exists today.

East Germany was basically the First World part of the Eastern Bloc. Of course, it was far from a complete paradise thanks to political repression and restricted movement to and from the West, but compared to other places, it was pretty well off.
