I think that is safely the longest, slowest "roll" I've ever seen. I would have been very nervous too. Any idea how long the runway is relative to others?

Here's some info on the Russian Ilyushin 76 mega-transport:

I believe it is Fairburn (Canberra) which IIRC until everyone had upgrade for the big Airbus was one of the longest runways in the country.

According to this site, Canberra (YSCB) runway 17/35 would be 8802 x 148 feet.

http://www.the-airport-guide.com/airport.p...irports_id=9907

That's about 1/2 what the 2 longest Russian airports are listed at these 2 sites:

It seems like a "tight fit" for that Il-76 to me. (IMG:http://pilotsfor911truth.org/forum/style_emoticons/default/whistle.gif)
