Destruction!

Old planes should be destroyed.
Those planes were on the display in Moscow “All-Russian Exhibition Centre” since Soviet times, for over 30 years, but it seems they occupy too much space costs so much these days so they better be destroyed with excavators. As on of the locals locals commented: “there were rumors about the upcoming destruction but for all the calls the management of the exhibition replied “No, that’s nonsense! We won’t ever remove or destroy them!”. Well, they didn’t want for people to come to protect those monuments that many knew since their childhood”.
As they comment now all the planes would be crushed and removed, the next in turn is that big rocket on the background.











And that’s those items on the display before the destruction. It was open for the admission by visitors so kids liked this place a lot:

They could have served as homeless shelter for millions of homeless people on the street of moscow

Even stupid variations of this old joke make me laugh - I can’t help it!
what a pathetic attempt
Millions… BILLIONS, пля, фигли мелочиться?
P.S.: Get an euthanasia already.

These are fine, looks like they`re en route to Aeroflot!
I got pics in June. Nice place to go and see wander for awhile. I can see getting rid of the planes, they do decay sitting in the weather and it is definitely not practical to fix them up but they need to keep the rocket.
Meh. There are plenty of Hawker Siddeley Tridents and their clones around the world.
Was there last year in October, the whole exhibition center is an impressive place. Must see when first time in Moscow. What a pity…
maybe they should start with the ones they have in service - because those barely work - dropping out of the sky.
Those are all US made, like that Aeroflot Boeing 737-500 that killed 88 few days ago.
Sounds like a reason why savages should not be allowed near any machinery more complex than a shovel and a wheelbarrow.
haha. You Russian prick, go fuck a ball of cabbage and drink yourself to death.
I was there just 4 weeks ago! I see I was lucky to see them before they are removed. What a pity…
Shit! I was there. Do they change with another plane? And please… don’t destruct those rocket….
I hate those bustards who did it. I love these planes so much!
Polish president and prime minister are still using TU-154M.
Fucking idiots….
UEBKI BLYATJ
варвары…
Idiots, idiots, idiots!.
This aircrafts and the rocket where i remembered of this city.
Me cago en diez!
Damn, I used to love going into those as a kid, we lived nearby.
Say whatever about those planes, but latest air-disaster in Russia was a Boeing and not a Tupolev or Illushyn… I am not saying those particular planes on display are air worthy, after decades they are totally unlikely to be, but the models are good models… and that’s no way to go… they should have tried selling to a private collector at least!
There are shitloads of those Hawker Siddeley Trident clones all over the world.
…incidentally, I just calculated that statistically, Tu-154 is 3 times as dangerous as Boeing 737. And that is without correcting for Chinese (you know that the one that crashed in Perm was from China, right?) and African work ethics and maintenance quality…
There are shitloads of those Hawker Siddeley Trident clones all over the world. Not ALL of them had crashed yet. It’s not like they’re destroying anything that has a historical value.
Still, I feel uneasy about destruction of a preserved airplanes to make way for some business interest. Oh-wow, such is Russia these days…

I have an idea, lets do a little word swap.
Old People should be destroyed.
Those elderly were on display in Moscow since soviet times, for 30 years, but it seems they occupy too much space and cost so much these days, so better they were destroyed with excavators.
Yep, nothing to learn from those old people, should just be destoryed >:|
This was shameful and stupid. Of course they’ve been exposed to the elements for too long so ’saving’ them is out of the question. but that’s no excuse for taking to them with a backhoe - the wings and fuslage could have been seperated - shipped off to technical schools for students to learn on (There really hasn’t been much significant advancement in spar construction and it’s always good to learn the basics) The fuslage could have been spared for turning into some kind of trendy resturant, or eccentric home, the aforementioned technical school or any number of other uses for a vessel that’s sealable against the elements and completely made of Aluminum - now it’s barily worth scrap, even less because of the ammount of contaminant. Stupid, stupid people.
I did not visit on first trip to Moscow. It was planned for second trip in late Fall.
Really sad news. I guess some Russians are not proud of Russia’s past. Not modern tech, but of historical interest for that era’s planes.
A shame, btw are most of the people leaving comments idiots with nothing better to say then “meh they were shit” Height of ignorance.

Russia is a leading builder of heavy equipment…seems “strange” to see a American Caterpillar doing the work……things that cheap in America?
