This 134 was delivered to the Hungarian Government in January 1981. It flew in full Malev colours but occasionally flew scheduled services for crew training purposes. In January 1988 ownership passed to Malev but it sometimes flew government flights up until 1994. The last Malev flight was in December 1997 and it then flew a joyflight over Budapest in early January 1998. It was delivered to Minsk same day for Lukoil as EW-65943 and then went to Kolavia as RA-65943 in July 1999 in VIP configuration. It is preserved at the Lebyazhye shooting range of the Russian MVD near Surgut (still?). This photo is copyright © Alastair T.
