Comments and history | This was actually an airport bus station for the last 20 odd years, but is no longer active and today the whole site is a giant building site. It is home to a large number of stored aircraft from Sukhoi OKB, Mig OKB (this has moved to Luchovitsy). A proper Museum is being prepared on the site in a park south of the runway cross over. Khodinka is where all IL18 and variants were built. Was used in 1941 by 12 IAP. (Thanks to AviaMK) |
