Pretty neat. You can tell these guys are pros, the captain is using the checklist
to keep the sun out of his eyes. The IL-18 is one of the remaining 'real airplanes'
still in service, like what I fly, the Convair 640.

@zorro051969 That periscope is a weather radar...GPS is over that radar, and a bigger GPS is at the right.

what is that big periscope in the middle ? it lloks like you are in a submarine. why do they have a small GPS?
-
makes the dc9-30 look modern with all the steam guages on this thing the beauty of this il-18 is its a true stick and rudder flying experiance not computerized like todays a330's and boeing777's

Very cool - you are very lucky to not only get on an Il-18 but visit the flight deck too :-)

I'll let you know if I make some plans. It seems we enjoy the same types of aircraft so it would be good to meet you.

Not too noisy! Nice video. Thanks for sharing. I'll fly on an Il-18 next week. I'm very curious!

I'm sure that trip will be great. I was tempted myself, but 499EUR plus getting there and back from the UAE was just a bit too much.
I will try for another Daallo Airlines flight later this year - hopefully this time I'll get the photos I want.
