Russia buys spare parts for aircraft to avoid sanctions – media

To continue working, Russian air carriers buy spare parts from “friendly” countries and transfer parts from one aircraft to another.

Russian airlines continue to use Airbus and Boeing aircraft, which are banned from doing business in Russia, and buy parts for them, bypassing the sanctions. Bloomberg writes about it.

Russian airlines reportedly still operate 467 Airbus and Boeing aircraft (up from 544 a year ago), increased flights to Thailand, Turkey, Armenia, Tajikistan and the UAE, and operate around 1,100 domestic flights a day, almost 15% less than a year ago.

It is noted that the Russian Federation is finding workarounds or turning to less restrictive partners.

The Kremlin also banned airlines from returning leased planes to their overseas owners and urged carriers to re-register in Russia. Therefore, most aircraft continue to fly, albeit cut off from the essential software updates and maintenance required to ensure their airworthiness.

“The company has no contact with Russian airlines, but it is already aware of the difficulty of keeping the aircraft operational as they struggle to replace missing parts,” Airbus Chief Executive Guillaume Faury said in a statement.

Bloomberg said that in order to continue working, Russian air carriers buy parts in “friendly” countries and transfer parts from one aircraft to another.

“Russian airlines are probably using every possible initiative to keep their aircraft flying, but it will be increasingly difficult,” said British aviation consultant John Strickland.

It will be recalled that the President of Russia, Vladimir Putin, signed a law that allows airlines not to return aircraft leased from foreign companies. In fact, Russia stole these planes.

It was also reported that Russia did not return 400 leased aircraft, the damage was $10 billion.
