Most of the people here seems to live in the West, so I figured it might be an interesting question.

I've never been on a Russian aircraft.

Not only been on, but jumped out of, and logged some 'unofficial' stick time at the local parachute club! All on my favourite flying junk pile the AN-2!

AN-2 Colt...which will probably be the plane of choice for most "Yes" answers.

They were still flying the 134s at that time Bjorn, so yup you've been there and done that. They started buying Boeings in '96 I think. They still have 2 134s in service (but I've never managed to get a flight on one) Sad

I should have been more specific. Vote "yes" (past this point) if you been in a Russian aircraft in flight.
