Il-96 will fly in Russia again

In Russia, the operation of IL-96 aircraft has been resumed. The corresponding order on Monday was signed by the head of Rostransnadzor Alexander Neudko, the press service of the Ministry of Transport said.

Earlier, the head of the Federal Property Management Office, Alexander Aleshin, informed reporters that, according to the results of the audit of the entire IL-96-300 aircraft, a list was compiled from 28 positions that must be performed to ensure further safe operation of the aircraft.

According to him, eleven out of 28 positions are critical, and the rest do not require an immediate solution, RIA Novosti reports.

The head of the Rostransnadzor from August 22 suspended the operation of IL-96-300 by Russian airlines due to the revealed facts of constructive production defects. This happened after the accident with Putin's plane. It was about a defect in the component of the brake system of the wheels, which were supposed to be eliminated until September 10.

Aeroflot planned the first IL-96-300 flight on Tuesday, Interfax told the company.

“Il-96 will be made by flights to Shanghai and Delhi,” said Irina Danenberg, head of the Aeroflot press service.
