The New Ilyushin 103: A Flying Classroom and More


Explanation:
Typically, IL aircraft are referred to as Ilyushin in specialist publications, mannuals etc. Somehow I do not quite like "classroom", but cannot come up with something better off the top of my head. I feel it should be something that has "training" or perhaps "simulator " as its part.
