Following the story of some airliners always has something fascinating even if in this case there is no so-called happy ending.
The one in the photo is a Tupolev Tu-154M (factory number: 90A838) built in 1990 by the Russian Aviakor. It made its operational entry for the Czechoslovakian airline CSA with the identifier OK-VCG and then transited ten years later for the Iranian Kish Air operating for about 11 years.
In March 2011 it ended up in a warehouse and suddenly about three years later it was decided to transform it into a bar-restaurant: the Raspina Air Cafe Gallery, located right on the Iranian island of Kish.
Unfortunately, the coronavirus led to the closure of the place and its decline so that its definitive demolition was decreed.
It is currently still visible on Google Maps at the coordinates: 26°31'48.1"N 53°54'34.9"E.
