An Entity of Type : dbkwik:resource/xqrGJ0ZFK0i780c0Qi5HPw==, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

The Tu-134 was designed in 1963 and based on Tupolev's earlier Tu-124, with a larger tailplane and more powerful Soloviev D-30 engines. It also shared some similarities with the Tu-16 bomber, including a glass nose and low-pressure tires that allowed it to operate from unpaved runways. The aircraft first flew on July 29th, 1963, with production beginning three years later. It entered service in September 1967 with Aeroflot. Approximately 850 were built between then and 1984, when production was halted. Many are still in service with several airlines and air forces around the world, but its increasing obsolescence and high maintenance costs have resulted in more and more being retired. Russia set plans in 2011 for their fleet of Tu-134s to be retired by 2012.

  • The Tupolev Tu-134 (NATO reporting name: Crusty) is a twin-engined airliner, similar to the French Sud Aviation Caravelle and the later-designed American Douglas DC-9, and built in the Soviet Union from 1966 to 1984. The original version featured a glazed-nose design and, like certain other Russian airliners (including its sister model the Tu-154), it can operate from unpaved airfields. One of the most widely used aircraft in former Warsaw Pact countries, the number in active service is decreasing because of noise restrictions. The model has seen long-term service with some 42 countries, with some European airlines having scheduled as many as 12 daily takeoffs and landings per plane. In addition to regular passenger service, it has also been used in various air force, army and navy support

abstract
  • The Tupolev Tu-134 (NATO reporting name: Crusty) is a twin-engined airliner, similar to the French Sud Aviation Caravelle and the later-designed American Douglas DC-9, and built in the Soviet Union from 1966 to 1984. The original version featured a glazed-nose design and, like certain other Russian airliners (including its sister model the Tu-154), it can operate from unpaved airfields. One of the most widely used aircraft in former Warsaw Pact countries, the number in active service is decreasing because of noise restrictions. The model has seen long-term service with some 42 countries, with some European airlines having scheduled as many as 12 daily takeoffs and landings per plane. In addition to regular passenger service, it has also been used in various air force, army and navy support roles; for pilot and navigator training; and for aviation research and test projects. In recent years, a number of Tu-134s have been converted for use as VIP transports and business jets. A total of 852 Tu-134s were built of all versions (including test bed examples) with Aeroflot as the largest user; by 1995, the Tu-134 had carried 360 million passengers for that airline.
