Rear side view of a 4 engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left.
The plane is mostly white, with green and blue stripes running along the body, and blue "Uzbekistan" titles on the upper forward fuselage.
The tail is blue, with a stylised white flying bird in the middle, and the white registration "UK-86573" at the base.
The 4 engines are mounted in pairs on the sides of the rear fuselage, under the tail.
Flaps are already extended from the rear of the wings, even though it has a long way to go before it gets to the runway.
Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, while taxiways wend their way through large grassed areas in the background, leading up to trees vanishing into haze in the distance, under grim grey sky.

Just your average day: a Soviet Ilyushin Il-62 in full Swissair livery buzzing the Verkehrshaus in Lucerne.

Has Swiss neutrality gone too far? 🇨🇭✈️
And more importantly—should the museum make room for it?

A Swissair-liveried Ilyushin Il-62 jet flies low over the Swiss Museum of Transport (Verkehrshaus der Schweiz) in Lucerne on a clear, sunny day. The aircraft features a white fuselage with a red cheatline and a bold red tail marked with a white cross. Below, crowds of visitors explore the museum grounds, which include vintage aircraft, a green electric locomotive, and modern buildings adorned with Swiss flags. In the background, Lake Lucerne and the surrounding mountains create a scenic alpine backdrop.
