Reuters: Russian airlines are dismantling planes for spare parts due to sanctions

The agency reports that earlier such measures were recommended by the Russian government.

Russian airlines that have been sanctioned by the West have begun to disassemble the planes.

Thus, the owners of the vessels intend to ensure the availability of spare parts.

In particular, several aircraft, including the Sukhoi Superjet 100 and Airbus A350, owned by Aeroflot, are now on the ground and are being disassembled.

This is reported by Reuters with reference to four sources in the aviation industry.

At the same time, the agency points out that the Airbus A350 – liner, which had practically no problems with serviceability, the vessel is “almost new,” the source notes.

A similar fate befell two more Aeroflot airliners, Boeing 737 and Airbus A320, from which special equipment was removed.

The reason is that the remaining vessels need these details.

The authors of the materials believe that they took advantage of the decision of the Government of the Russian Federation, which recommended airlines to disassemble some of the aircraft against the background of sanctions.

Thus, there are guarantees that in the event of a breakdown, foreign vessels will receive repairs and will be able to stay in the sky at least until 2025.

Earlier, Topnews wrote that Boeing suspended the maintenance of Russian airlines and the supply of spare parts.
