Be interesting to compare with Aeroflot Don's rather shabby TU154's
Aeroflot Don, from Rostov-on-Don, are a quite separate company from the current mainstream Aeroflot. It is of course the old Rostov directorate of the Soviet-era Aeroflot, now privatised. It's the only one of the large number of local directorates splintered off to have retained the old name in some form.

And like many of the smaller Russian airlines running 154s, they prove one thing about that aircraft. It must have been one hell of a robust design !!
