June 9 - Volga-Dnepr Airlines has used a combination of a Boeing 747 scheduled service and an Ilyushin IL-76TD-90VD charter flight to deliver a 12.66-tonne gas turbine to a power station in Yangon, Myanmar.

Measuring 5.6 m x 2.6 m x 2.5 m, the turbine started its journey onboard a B747 freighter from Chicago, USA to Hanoi, Vietnam using a scheduled service operated by Volga-Dnepr's sister airline, AirBridgeCargo Airlines (ABC).
