one of the best and most reliable airliners ever built. i remember flying with it of the GDR's "Interflug" as a kid twice with my mother and brother. beirut-sofia-berlin and back cairo-sofia-berlin and back i still have vivid memories of both flights. i guess my nostalgia and love for the sound of russian turboprop engines go back to these flights.
49:40 funny, all 3 cars on this side are made in Yugoslavia. First is Zastava 101, second a Opel from IDA-Opel factory in Kikinda, and third a Wolkswagen Golf made by TAS in Sarajevo.
Many say that driving a vehicle with a manual transmission is "real driving''. I say that flying in a propeller driven aircraft is "real flying!" Takeoffs in a propeller aircraft are more exhillerating than in a fan jet aircraft, when the props are revved up to 1,500 RPM. I love the sound that the props make! In full idle and while taxiing, they make your basic "box fan" sound. In takeoff and in flight, at 1,500 RPM, the props buzz like the wings of a flying insect, creating the bass hum that you get inside the cabin, or when the aircraft flies overhead. Much of the pubic to my understanding, doesn't like the turboprops, because most people don't know that it's a jet engine with a propeller attached. Most people who are not observant, are convinced that it's an old fashioned piston driven propeller engine. Observant people like myself, can listen to the engine when it fires up, and tell that it is indeed a jet engine with a propeller attached. It's my understanding that in theory, a full size airliner, such as the Airbus A-320, would use 40 percent less jet fuel with four turboprops, than with it's two fan jet engines. The down side, 80 or 90 miles an hour slower, making a significant difference on a cross country flight from Charlotte to Seattle, or an overseas flight. On a shorter flight from Charlotte to New York LaGuardia, it would only add an estimated 15 to 20 minutes to the fight time. On such domestic flights, I think it would be worth the few extra minutes to save jet fuel. It would be better for the environment too. It's my understanding that jet fuel, is nowadays more expensive than gasoline. It used to be the other way around. I notice that on this particular aircraft, the props rotate to Port. On the turboprops that I've known and flown on, the props rotated to starboard.
Like you I agree! I love manual transmission vehicles and I also love the sight sound and mystique of old turboprop flying. If it weren't the fact that they succumb to prop and induction icing, lower altitudes and slow speeds they might very well be still on the front line flying today. However they are most suited to short/medium hauls as feeders to the larger hubs.
@@thebiffer100 Further refining, a six bladed prop, rather than a four bladed prop would yield higher cruising speeds, and maybe 30,000 feet rather than just 25,000 feet. I also think that the compressor air intake should be roughly two feet back from the propeller blades. With those modifications, a four engine turboprop would be best suited for flights 1,000 miles or less. I also think that the Russians should bring back the TU-114, a long range turboprop with two props on each engine that are counter rotating. Props with six blades would make it even faster and more efficient. Thicker cabin insulation could be added to somewhat muffle the low pitch drone that the props produce. The quietest turboprop that I've ever flown on was that ATR-42 with American Eagle in 1992. It appears to have thicker cabin insulation. My longtime girlfriend, Harris, calls it the "Whisperprop". While the turbofan jets may be faster and able to fly as high as 40,000 feet, they eat up jet fuel, and spew more greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere to deplete the ozone layer.
@@thebiffer100 When I lived in Ithaca NY for twelve years, I used to fly in in out of Ithaca on US Airways Expresse's regional turboprop airliners. The loudest turboprop I think I've flown on was the Shorts 360, distinctive for it's square fuselage. The quietest was the ATR-42, which my longtime girlfriend Harris liked to call the "Whisperprop".
I REMEMBER THIS PLANE ,MY DAD CAME FROM USA TO OHRID THRU BULGARIA WITH THIS ONE,,IT WAS 1998 AND THAT DAY WAS THUNDERSTROM AND TEY ALMOST CRASH IT ,THE PLANE START SMELL LIKE SMOKE LITTLE
The IL-18 was the Russian LockHeed Electra! My mom flew with me as a lap child when I was two months old on a LockHeed Electra, Eastern Airlines flight 648, Charlotte NC to Wahington DC. That's one reason to be so fond of turboprop airliners. I also love the sounds that the props make, the chafe cutter sound in ground idle and taxiing, which is like that of a box fan, and the low pitched drone in takeoff and inflight, like that of a Mexican hornet.
90 PERCENT OF PASSENGER WERE ALBANIAN COMING FROM USA AND EUROPE,EVEN NOW 80 PERCENT OF OHRID AND SKOPJE PASSANGERS ARE ALBANIAN IMIGRANTS COMING FORM USA EUROPE AND OTHER COUNTRYS.IF THEY NOT THERE AIRPORT WILL STRIKE AND BE NON PROFITABLE..SKOPJE HAS 900 THOUSAND PASSENGER A YEAR UP TO 1.1 MILION,,,600TO 700 THOUSAND ARE ALBANIANS AND MACEDONIAN MUSLIMS TOO YEARLY
Перед стартом двигатели ревели так , что уши закладывало , но было приятно и видно на чем ты летишь

Класс! Спасибо!
Lindo vídeo. Belíssimo. Belo voo do ilyushin 18. Parabéns.
Bellissime immagini davvero bello il video superbo il L 18/LZ😅😅👌👌
Imagini meravigliose davvero belle grazie a tutti

GREAT!!!!
Love the video. I never flew the IL-18 but I felt with the video if like I had. Too bad Balkan Bulgarian folded it's wings.

What is mentioned above is already achieved on the A320. Classic A320 burns 4100kgs of fuel in one hour, the NEO burns 3500kgs in one hour.

Flew to locations in Canada with the dash 8 300 series, that aircraft has the famous box fan sound 💯
