One of the highlights at Domodedovo is the so called location “corrosion corner”, a boneyard with almost 30 aircraft in various conditions. Unfortunately we weren’t allowed to enter the terrain, but photo’s could be made from the edge. Demolition was taking place on a Tu-154 and Il-62 when we visited.
