  • Outlaws Inc.

  • @docrw Americans also copy many projects of Soviet period F-35 from Jak-141 if to tell more that all engineering specifications and drawings the USA after disorder USSR.Il-76 a good birdie have been sold many years...)))

  • @tsaarmartijn LOL, only russians copy so many designs.

  • красавец!

  • @damaged01 They're using studded Nokian Hakkapeliitta =)

  • Il 76 is military transport plane. It has designed capability to land on soil run ways. Like dirt, ice and so on. It used to deliver tanks and company of rifles behind the enemy line. Carring supplies to expedition in Antarctice is easy task for that plane.

  • @emiratesA380NCL They fly in from Punta Arenas in Chile. It's a four and a half hour flight and you're sitting on a little fold down seat inside the fuselage with earplugs in.

  • @odinandme The penguins are all on the coast (or nearby). Patriot Hills is about 600 miles inland. Not a bird in sight; flightless or otherwise.
