The original Yak-40 aircraft – a short history

The Yakovlev Yak-40 is a jet passenger aircraft designed in the Soviet Union in the 1960s. It entered service in 1968, and in the following decades was used by many Eastern Bloc countries, including Moldova. It was known for its reliability, simple construction, and ability to land on short, unpaved runways. Air Moldova operated the Yak-40 on both domestic and international routes until the early 21st century.
