Comments: The prototype TU-114 Rossyia, used in 1959 to fly Nikita Khruschev to the USA & later China. Now only 3 of the 38 built survive, the preserved examples at Domodedovo & Vnukovo were broken up during June/July '06. The aviation museum at Ulyanovsk have one on display & the Technical School at Kriviy Rig, Ukraine, use one as an instructional airframe.
