Tiene buena lógica adaptada a Rusia.<br /><br />Saludos.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07816044096092446990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10528748.post-88789716789919167982015-05-17T20:41:30.081-03:002015-05-17T20:41:30.081-03:00Según airliners.net:

In fact, most countries flight crew validation will only be approved if the crew has a navigator with a valid license. Yes, in our aircraft we have modern Garmin GPSmap units for both the pilot, copilot, and navigator, as well as laptop based FliteMap and Jeppview software for all three.<br /><br />The main reason for the glass nose was locating runways and/or drop zones (paratroopers and airdrops).<br /><br />You have to remember that russia has some pretty crappy weather, and during the winter some places are whiteout conditions pretty non-stop. The nose windows allow a navigator to easily scan for a runway, landmark, or other item while the captain and copilot focus on flying. The IL-76 does have weather radar. For instance, IL-76 aircraft are regularly allowed to land at Kabul airfield during winter storms while western types are advised that the airport is closed and diverted. As Kabul has until recently been a VFR only airport the ability to land there in winter has been a key facet of IL-76 traffic there.<br /><br />Remember, the IL-76 and antonov-12 were both designed to be the front line supply aircraft (airdrop) as well as a firebomber. Being able to locate drop zones easily was a key element in their development.
