Overview
The Ilyushin Il-114 is a twin-engine turboprop, short-haul regional airliner developed by the Ilyushin design bureau. The programme was launched in June 1986 by the Soviet Ministry of Aviation Industry and first flew on 29 March 1990. Initial plans envisioned the production of up to one-hundred aircraft per year, taking place in the Uzbek SSR. While development was initially expected to be straightforward, work was complicated by organisational and financial problems caused by the dissolution of the Soviet Union as well as the crash of a prototype aircraft.
