What does this logo signify?
 
It's from a TU-104. Looks like "Illy" to me, but that's just a guess...

Hello, you're right, it looks like Illy in Latin alphabet, but this is actually the Soviet era Tu(polev) Design Bureau logo - TU spelled in Russian/Cyrillic.

In cursive,

It's cursive "TU"

For the benefit of the person asking the question, it's basically cyrillic for TU short for Tupolev aircraft company, but written in the more formal, elegant and proper cursive alphabet.
