Note: This is an animated film. The aircraft shown in it are therefore not actual aircraft, however, where a reasonable depiction of an actual aircraft has been created, it has been identified as best as possible.

Antonov An-12

Quite a realistic sequence of An-12 landing, with flaps down and beacon lights on. It is clear that the artists were using a real photo for reference.

An-12.

A much less realistic representation, although the number СССР-11159 did exist in reality and was carried by An-12.

Mil Mi-8 and Animated Airliners

The helicopter is most likely inspired by Mi-8. The rest of the planes are hard to guess. The propeller-driven aircraft carries a resemblance to DC-4, although it is more likely that animators kept Il-18 in mind. The planes on the back are similar to de Havilland Comet, but with only 2 engines instead of 4.

Animated Airliner

Surprisingly for a Soviet cartoon, this airliner carries SAS logo on the fin. The letters near the cockpit say “Tu”, although there is no resemblance of any Tupolev airplane.
