Okay, we all know that CAE and FSI do just about all the sim training, but where does one go if they want to train on a TU134 or Antonov? I am really interested, even if just to pick up another rating.

My guess is that you would have to go to Russia or a former USSR state that operates them. You will then have a mighty problem with language. (I assume?)
'Have been told that an airworthy one could be in your hands for $100k in Moscow. A lot of performance for the money but virtually useless in the rest of the world due noise, maintanance, spares, insurance, age etc.
