The Tupolev Design Bureau is planning to sign a settlement agreement with the oil company Tatneft in a case involving 5.6 billion rubles. The lawsuit was filed against Tupolev and its entities, including the Gorbunov Kazan Aviation Plant.
We request a postponement. The sum is considerable, so we hope to find a compromise solution.
The Aviation Bureau asked the court to postpone the hearing to resolve the issue peacefully. The court granted the request and postponed the hearing to early February. If the parties do not reach an agreement, a corresponding response must be sent by January 29.
Tatneft's lawsuit against Tupolev was accepted in November, but the essence of the claim was not disclosed. At the same time, the authorities of the republic reported several years ago that the Kazan Aviation Plant was supposed to supply four Tu-214 aircraft to a local customer. Last year, it became known that these aircraft were intended for the airline "UVT Aero", but plans for their delivery were not announced this year.
Earlier www1.ru reported that Rosaviatsiya extended the service life of emergency slide components for the Tu-214 without the participation of a foreign manufacturer.
