On the same bent, the Russian IL-86 is boarded from the baggage compartment level; you then take a stairway up to the passenger cabin. Very useful for out-of-the way Russian airports, where jetways are non-existent.

The Russian "copy" of the 727 is known as the Tupolev TU-154. The Ilyushin IL-62 "copies" the long-retired British Vickers VC-10.

I use the term "copy" loosely since they share a resemblance to the above aircraft. They're not exact copies
