THE SIGHT & THE SOUND 3/12 : Flight onboard Air Koryo IL-18 P-835 from Samjiyong (YJS) to Pyongyang

Daniel’s Travel Vlog WELCOME TO THE AIR KORYO FLEET SERIES #3 This video has been remastered and substantially improved in Sight & Sound and replaces the video published in 2015. Many of you may not be aware of the fact, that aviation videography on the ground and in the air is hard work and the output is not always rewarding. Filming is not only time and money consuming, but requires accurate preparation, especially when asking for cooperation of the airline, crews, security and authorities. Once accepted and approved, it is all a matter of weather, seating on board, fellow passengers, camera condition and last but not least the ability of the person behind the lens. Therefore I always prefer to plan my own tours well in advance to make sure nothing goes wrong. Planning a trip to North Korea is a different story. It is impossible to get permissions from the airline, the crews, security and the authorities in advance. Yet, filming the beauties of Air Koryo in detail has always been my dream. There are many videos published on YouTube featuring flights onboard Air Koryo. Yet, I was looking for more substantial footage with more detailed inflight impressions. Travelling to North Korea means always to join a group tour and to depend on the mercy of circumstances. Inspired by my friend Lutz, I decided to join the German speaking Aviation Tour in May 2013, launched by Juche Travel Services. Twelve flights onboard Air Koryo were on the agenda, meaning tough and hard work with uncertain output. Restrictions imposed by security issues change on a day to day basis and remain totally unpredictable. Seating on board is also a problem for filming because everybody wants the same seat with the same clean window and the same video footage of take off and landing. The third problem is a pure lack of time on board and in between flights. This video features the third flight out of total twelve, onboard the IL-18, my favorite plane, back from Samjiyong to Pyongyang. Although the attitude of the crew onboard was totally relaxed and taking pictures and filming on board was absolutely no problem, the situation escalated, when one group member - who never showed any consideration towards his fellow travel mates - started using several cameras simultaneously, including a Go Pro without a monitor and started arguing with the security officer on board. As a consequence, the officer became very nervous and thanks to the uncooperative and undiplomatic attitude of my inconsiderate travel mate, all photography and videography on board was stopped from that point on. The reason may be pure speculation, however there seemed to be some military action enroute and we had beautiful clear skies when approaching Pyongyang. Our guide did his very best to help us and the officer understood that I was interested in taping the plane and the propellers only. This explains all the talking and explaining during landing in the background. Despite these and other disturbing circumstances, this is the best I could do to deliver you an impression of Air Koryo's IL-18 in detail. Watch and enjoy with me the Sights & Sounds of Classic Aviation. Thank you for watching my channel. History of Ilyushin 18D P-835 Airframe 188011205 was manufactured 1969 at the Engineering Plant “Znamya Truda / Banner of Labour” and delivered to Choson Minhang조선민항 on March 20, 1969, registered 835. 835 was reregistered P-835 in 1980. In March, 1992, Choson Minhang조선민항 was renamed into Air Koryo고려항공. In the 1970s and 80s, 835 was a regular visitor in Eastern Europe, including Berlin-Schönefeld. Banned from most international destinations, P-835 is still active, operating mainly domestic and regional charter flights and is an extremely rare sight outside of North Korea. P-835 was spotted on November 4, 2019 in Vladivostok (VVO).
