DL (ex-NW) used to operate DC9 made in the early 1960s until very recently.

A few AN-24 planes operating in Africa and in ex-USSR, though I think most have been retired because of crew requirements and fuel efficiency.

I don't think there are (m)any IL-18 still flying, not even in Africa. If there are any IL-62 in regular service, they'd probably be newer than the 737s in the article.

AirKoryo has many old planes that they use specifically for tours for air geeks.
