Aircraft Of The Week (April 19-26, 2026)

AOTW

Aircraft: Ilyushin IL-76

Model: Ilyushin IL-76TD-90VD

Registration: 4K-AZ100

Operator: Silk Way Azerbaijan Cargo

Airframe Age: ~20.4 Years

Engines: 4x Aviadvigatel PS-90A-76

The Ilyushin Il-76TD-90VD is a modernized, long-range civilian heavy-lift freighter, featuring PS-90A-76 engines and advanced avionics that comply with international ICAO noise and emission regulations. Operated primarily by Volga-Dnepr Airlines, this variant offers a 50-ton payload capacity, extended range, and the ability to operate from, often unpaved, airstrips.
The 4K-AZ100 (a Silk Way Airlines Ilyushin IL-76TD-90VD) is rare at JFK because it is a Russian-built cargo aircraft operated by an Azerbaijani airline, which does not operate regular, scheduled routes to New York. Its appearances are typically special charter flights rather than daily scheduled service, making it a prized spotting event.
