From my 11 year old Daughter;
Abbie: Dad, did you here about the Russian aircraft that never really existed?
Me: No, do tell.
Abbie: Nothing to tell really, it was just an Illushin!
I have become, comfortably numb.

It certainly is. It still makes me laugh - everytime I hear it. Still, as you and I can testify, the old ones are the best!

My Daughter's I'm pleased to say. She has a pretty good knowledge of all things aviation. My jokes are shall we say, intended for a more mature audience than my kids!! :shock:

It is quite an old joke but one of those that's always funny when it comes around again.
But she may well of thought of it herself after mishearing someone thinking they said Illusion. :k:
