Experiences flying on SU's IL-96-300
I am flying JFK to DEL via SFO on SU in Y. Unfortunately Seatguru does not have any info on SU. I know from reading through this forum that it is a tough call to pick a seat in advance on the 767 for the JFK to SVO leg since there are 4 configurations.
Just curious to see if anyone has any tips for flying on a IL-96-300? Seems to be similar to a 767.

No useful experience, other than that Aeroflot is SU, not SV.
SeatExpert has some of the 767 maps but none of the IL-96s.

Bulkhead row has pretty nice amount of legroom (think US domestic first).
Oh, and don't worry about shaking and rattling. It will go away once you're airborne. Biggest portholes I've ever seen.
