    Are you wondering why the wheel hubs are green, or a different part of the aircraft. Might be just all planes made by that particular manufactuer have green gear. I hate to be one of "those people" but Antonov's are actually Ukrainian aren't they?

      Yes, they are Ukrainia, but remember that their independence is only temporary anyway .

        It's not just Antonov. It's common to various ex-Soviet manufacturers.

          Their cockpits are painted green to help produce a relaxed work area. Apparently it's a relaxing colour.

          And they come up with good old fashioned but effective ventilators to offset the heat generated by the electronics around.
