There is the Interflug Il-62 which is preserved in a field on a hill-top next to a glider strip at Stolln-Rhinow which is still there [I saw it there in the 1990s]

You might be thinking that's not very unusual, lots of aircraft get preserved away from airports. What is unusual about this one, is that they landed it on the grass glider strip on top on the hill to get it there back in 1989

Some rather grainy Youtube footage on this page: https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zon...tory-behind-it
