Comments: This Mil 8 is used to take up to 26 tourists at a time volcano spotting in the "Lost World" region of the Kamchatka Peninsula. Typically, the flights last 2H 45M, operate at a height of 5,500 ft, do not involve a landing in the volcano zone but they get you close enough to smell the sulphur !
