The first production MS-21-310 aircraft does not take to the sky during testing. PAO "Yakovlev" engineers continue ground testing of onboard systems with operating PD-14 engines.
In the footage, it can be seen that the power plants are operating in different modes. Specialists carefully record the test results for submission of documentation to the Aviation Register and Rosaviatsiya.
While this production liner remains on the ground, the Irkutsk Aviation Plant, meanwhile, is preparing sites for the production of new aircraft. The "Tekhnosfera Rossiya" publication noted that at least three more aircraft will be built there by the end of the year.
The United Aircraft Corporation plans to increase aircraft production by 30%. For now, such "explosive" growth is mainly provided by military aviation, but the civil sector will soon catch up.
