Russia's Rostec publishes pictures of Irkut MC-21 with American and Lufthansa liveries
MOSCOW, RUSSIA — Russia's state-owned technology development and production company Rostec has published pictures of the country's most recent airliner under development with the liveries of American and Lufthansa. (www.airlinerwatch.com) और अधिक...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Cute graphic work but I don't see any US airlines EVER using one.
I would not fly in one.
What Russia does best... Make bad copies of what other countries have already developed...
The airlines should sue for copyright violation.
good luck receiving the compensation
This will go down in flames like their Sukhoi Superjet 100. Most ruzzians consider their planes to be flying coffins. This is why ruzzins always clap when the plane lands safely.
So I am assuming you have an intimate understanding of Russin culture and beliefs and feel comfortable speaking on their behalf? Somehow I very much doubt it.
You don't have too... Look at their History and their Safety Record (Or the Lack There Of)!
If one is attempting to speak on behalf of Russians (ref: Most ruzzizns (sic) consider their planes to be flyig coffins" one should either back that up with facts or simply stay quiet. Your point of their history of aviation safety is a different topic than the psyche of Russians. That said, I am interested in the topic and am hoping that you have data to back up your statement.
History Speaks for itself!

I am certain an equally impressive list of non-Russian crashes could be produced. Transactional data means little unless it is put in context and harmonized. Let me help. The number of deaths per 1,000,000 miles flown when the aircraft in question was built in Russia would be interesting and then comparing that to others such as the number of deaths 1,000,000 miles flown when the aircraft in question was built in the USA or the EU. I am not saying that one is better than the other but a simple list of transactions does little other than emitting emotion.
Check out " Russian International Airlines flight 593" - Capt's kid in the cockpit. Hit the yolk by accident, changed the A/P mode, Crew Failed to notice, Flew plane right into the ground! Did never realized what happened. If they have been trained correctly on the plane, they would have known what had happened. Violation of Sterile Cockpit at its best, Crew following the A/C and not flying it... There are 100's of more incidences of this.. Just look them up! No country is Perfect, but Russia has more than their fair share!
All I am suggesting is that any grandiose generalization statements should be based on facts that are fair. And let the cards fall where they may. A single transaction, nor emotional bias, supports such generalized statements but look forward to your full review.
I have to agree with Dan here... As for anecdotal evidence, I recall one news article where two Northwest Airlines pilots got "distracted" and missed their landing in Minneapolis (https://abcnews.go.com/GMA/exclusive-northwest-pilot-us-asleep/story?id=8897670 ). To infer from one incident that it reflects the whole industry of a given country is just bad reasoning. I have no high regard whatsoever for Russian's aviation safety record, but Dan's point that opinions should be backed by fact makes sense. The issue here is not Russian's safety record, but Russian's people's perception. Just sayin'
