«Сотни часов налёта ожидать не стоит»: авиаэксперт остудил пыл от ожиданий запуска МС-21 и SJ-100 в серию

Difficulties may arise at the initial stage of operation

Sergey Chemezov, head of Rostec, announced the serial production of Russian passenger aircraft MS-21 and SJ-100 in 2026. Oleg Panteleev, Executive Director of Aviaport agency, said that at the first stage of operation, the aircraft will still have to get rid of "childhood diseases".

According to him, the main argument in favor of the optimistic scenario is the participation of partially import-substituted samples of aircraft in certification tests. This means that the main part of the technical risks has already been removed during factory tests.

All aircraft have a stage of eliminating "childhood diseases". Boeng-737MAX even had to temporarily suspend flights to eliminate identified technical shortcomings. It remains to be hoped that this will not happen with our equipment. But to assume that the aircraft will immediately fly several hundred hours a month is too optimistic.
