Ten years lie between these two photos taken in front of the terminal in Moscow-Vnukovo. In March 1946, the first photo shows the Aeroflot C-47B CCCP-990 airliner of Aeroflot's 10th Transport Aircraft Division ready for its flight to Aeroflot's Berlin airport in Schönefeld. In the second photo, the German Lufthansa IL-14P DM-SBE airliner is ready for its return flight to its home airport in Berlin-Schönefeld in October 1956.
