The Russian Air Force has lifted a ban on the flights of Tu-95 Bear strategic bombers imposed after an An-22 Cock transport plane was destroyed in a crash last December.

I think they might consider changing he aircraft's name, designation. An-22 Cock seems a name, designation with some mighty nasty karma.

Cock is the Nato nickname for the plane.

Hey I love taking my An-22 Cock in for a landing once and A while. So leave the russians alone if they want to fly their AN-22 around also..
