Domestic airlines will not abandon foreign aircraft in service even after the start of mass production of MC-21 and SJ-100 aircraft, said aviation expert, editor-in-chief of Avai.pro Roman Gusarov.
According to him, such a replacement of foreign aircraft with domestic ones will be too expensive for carriers.
Therefore, everything will be further regulated by demand. If there is a higher demand than 36 aircraft per year for rotation or replenishment, the plant will increase serial production.
The specialist recalled that Russia has the ability to service Western equipment. Therefore, foreign aircraft may well fly for another 10-15 years.
