An Il-76 with a box above the forward fuselage. Anybody know what it's
for?
(the box, that is, rather than the Candid)?

The picture comes from an article about Il-76 deliveries being resumed in
2011 but, given the Aeroflot markings, I assume it's an old photograph.


Its a roof rack! You know like the little pods that people put on their
vans to hold all their crap when they go on vacation..................
