Mad Vlad certainly is gonna leave his mark in the history books! No need to make lease payments on all of the commercial planes leased by the Russian airlines. Putin essentially nationalized all of the airliners being leased from foreign lessors. They'll be used only on domestic routes in order to avoid seizure. Those lessors are going to have some massive write-offs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not the issue, maintenance will be the biggest problem as it is (currently) illegal to supply parts for said planes - this will then impact safety 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pattaya Spotter Posted April 7, 2022 Author Share Posted April 7, 2022 (edited) The "rubble (per Joe Biden [https://www.republicworld.com/world-news/russia-ukraine-crisis/biden-emphasises-on-effect-of-sanctions-on-russia-quips-ruble-reduced-to-rubble-articleshow.html]) has made quite the comeback...basically returning to its pre-invasion value vis-a-vis the US dollar. Another instance of President Biden shooting blanks? Edited April 7, 2022 by Pattaya Spotter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
