our plane


My apologies that these pictures from our trip to Hojand are totally out of order -- this computer is in Russian and I'm in a rush to get to class. This is a photo of the old Soviet plane we took to get back to Dushanbe. If you're a plane expert and can identify it, please leave a comment. It sat about 40 people and looked quite rickety inside. I have to admit I was terrified, but I'm always scared of planes. Once upon a time in Alaska with my grandparents I was content to fly in a 4-person plane, but no more!
This was a fun plane trip because we boarded the plane through the rear...

I'm fairly certain it's a Yak-40.
