    Stupid propaganda salad
    1. The PS-90 engine has gone through three stages of modernization over 30 years of operation on many aircraft. Now the third version of the PS-90A3 modernization is working on the IL-96-400. Of course there was no information about this about Pratt & Whitney's work on this engine because you are limited to information in English only. But this company completed the work and sold the license for the modernized engine.
    2. The new double cabin being developed with new avionics for the MC-21 will easily make it possible in a few years to move on to the creation of the IL-96 with two crew members. This is an obvious thing and an obvious advantage of sanctions, which pushes the nation and business to develop.
    3. The PD-35 jet engine is confidently in line for development by 2027, not much time left. Work on PD-8 for SuJet-100 will be completed this year. Work on the PD-35 version will be improved.

    The problem is indeed the engine issue. If I am not mistaken the IL 96-400 has 4 engines, each providing some 180kN thrust. As a comparison, the RR Trent engines mounted on the Airbus A350 XR has 330 to 380 kN thrust, allowing the plane to run on two engines only. I am ready to bet that the A350 is already more fuel efficient than is the IL 96...

    The aircraft will have a temporary place in Russia during sanctions. However, once sanctions are lifted, the aircraft will be parked as too expensive. It may have a post sanction future as a cargo carrier.

    To tell the truth, I have more trust on engineers than business executives; quite never understood their obsession with two engines, cause I am confident to go to sleep in a B747, or AB340 with 4 engines in a long haule flight than a B777 or AB350 with 2 huge engines, the Il96 of Cubana has been a work horse for many years hasn't killed anyone that should be the most important factor. As many old soviets planes they have been flying for decades with no incidents, with the unfortunate accidents with the 747 max one would assume that people in the industry should have learned a thing or two; the lessons of those events and their consequences on the industry is; it's better to have higher costs incroching on maximal profits in exchange of maximum reliability and uncompromize safety; than pursuing short sighted profits with a minimum acceptable level of risks, because when that minimal risks materializes the cost is abyssimal; I predict that if Boieng doesn't do a drastic move they are on their way to bankruptcy because of their decision to sick a compromize balance between risks and profits with their MCast system, that's how being reckless in that industry punishes you because no one want to board a plane that can potentially kill them no matter what business people say.

    • @PlanesPlanesPlanes
      @PlanesPlanesPlanes  4 місяці тому +2

      I do think you make excellent points. The aversion to risks with old soviet planes is to be lauded. When we think about the engineering stations and all the gauges that had to be monitored, someone was responsible for a key aspect of an aircraft. The IL76 engineering station is a thing of wonder. In modern western places, these have been reduced to a few indicators. The common view is that Boeing's problems started when corporates took over from the engineers. The drive for profit will always end up in risk taking as this culture is at the heart of many businesses. There is always a level of risk that some business are prepared to take especially when they know that the worse that had happen is to lose their jobs with a great payoff.

    Probably this plane does not appeal to a any Western airlines at all, but considering sanctions over Heavy long haul aircrafts wich are still in operations over Russian territory, it makes sense that this IL96-400M will be the natural local made airplane replacement to all that Airbus-Boeing material in order to serve with new planes the vast territory needing for a long range-one flight equipment. The costumers or clients would be the same 3 or 4 Russians well established companies, and surely, the foreing candidate to operate a bunch of them would be Cubana de Aviaciòn, Cuba`s national Airline. In my own humble opinion, I do prefer in long distance schedule, 4 engine model rather than 2 big ones, considering the latest blowns-out and fire issues in flight or taking-off, decribed by media and footage coming from the passengers aboard those flights. What about if delays-trouble assembly lines from Boeing and Airbus continue or get worst? Here is the another good and reliable player.
