Quote of the Day

“It was 1977 and we were on an old DC8 Air Ceylon coming in to Colombo, Ceylon from Bangkok. The landing approach was pretty bumpy, but the biggest bump was saved for when we hit the tarmac - a massive shudder and shake - at least I hoped it was the runway.. We were soon however airborne again and climbing steeply when a voice with a heavy Indian accent came over the PA as follows: I am sorry about the landing ladies and gentlemen, the pilot will now take over.”

Y-8 has to be evaluated but it is not a mature platform as yet.
further C-130's can be purchased if the govt. has the finances.
IL-78's are another option but with updated engines and a glass cockpit.
Y-20 is a long way off.

why dont we try to grab newer ilyushins, i heard about the il-476, it looks the same from outside, but has digital cockpit,some other stuff too and ofc its NEW

Worth the weight! New transport plane takes to sky (VIDEO, PHOTOS) — RT News

Presenting Ilyushin Il-476 | English Russia

if we go for the ilyushin, i dont think a new level of training pilots from scratch would be required

but going for y-20 will be more sensible, in terms of politics, work and trust if u know what i mean

sir everything comes with strings attached - some are just overt, others covert - no free lunches.
