Not sure if you can see the Flight Engineer reaching out for the overhead panel in the cockpit close-up.

Flexing wings are beautifully smooth though.

Video is about 8 mb.

http://www.protu-154.com/index_e.html is their site. Theres a Tu-154B-2 and a Tu-154M. Both lovely aircraft but very complicated to fly properly. Very long startup procedure and dont forget that all the captions are written in Russian and the instruments are metric!

Thank you Toby
I think I'll give it a go
I hope I can get a translator for the directions
although I'm pretty good at figuring stuff out
The directions would be preferred

Btw John, has anyone done a Balkan Holidays (on lease from Hemus Air I believe) scheme for the 154M? I have started working on one but its not exactly the easiest thing in the world to paint!

You need winrar to decompress it
