On the air of Sputnik radio, the former commander of the aircraft, a flight safety specialist, Alexander Romanov, said that the Il-114 has proven itself well, its new version will be more economical.

"What is good about it: the plane is turboprop, there will be very long flights, the plane can be used as a long-haul one. The IL-114 has proven itself well. During the entire operation of this aircraft, there was not a single accident with it in my memory. Of course, it will be updated: the avionics will be different, new engines. But the base of the aircraft, even the fuselage, according to my data, will remain the same. Four turboprop engines, coaxial-the aircraft will be very profitable, from the point of view of fuel," Alexander Romanov said.
