Narrative:The aircraft was damaged beyond repair whilst parked at Uzyn, Ukraine, probably in the late 1990s.
Its hardstand had not been completely cleared of snow so the aircraft could not be pushed back to the rear end of the hardstand.
When another Il-78 (UR-76653) taxied along at night, it's wing hit and destroyed the cockpit of 76736.
