Dec 17, 2015 at 18:07 | comment | added | Pavel | There are two kinds of reputation, to make matters worse. Even if Sukhoi establishes a good operational record for, say, ten years, as an operator you'd still not enjoy being marked as 'flying Russian aircraft' in the news or Internet discussions. | |
Dec 17, 2015 at 17:53 | comment | added | reirab | Reliability reputation aside, you really can't ignore the political reasons. To put it mildly, Russia has strained its relationships with many of the other countries that buy a lot of airplanes lately. When you're buying an aircraft that you'll likely be operating for a decade or two, the risk of your parts supply chain suddenly being embargoed if the situation escalates further is not a good one. Along those same lines, Boeing, Airbus, and Embraer are probably less likely to stop existing over the next couple of decades than most of the Russian manufacturers. | |
