  • In 2022 Russia withheld hundreds of foreign-owned (but Russian-operated) aircraft.
    Reuters has since reported that aircraft leasing firms have struck settlements for over a quarter of the total number. With the aircraft seemingly unrecoverable at this point, settlements which include compensation seems to be the best-case scenario for these leasing firms…

    I don't claim to know finances but the old saying goes : "if I owe the bank $100 I 'm in trouble, if you owe them millions they just write it off". Or something like that !

      The one I have heard is "If you owe the bank 100$, then it's your problem. If you owe the bank 100,000,000$ then it's their problem." still applicable to this case

    At this point it's the best that these lessors can hope for. Some lessors were less enthusiastic about doing business in Russia, and they have been spared some of this pain.

    At the end of the day any leasing company in future won't lease any new aircraft to Russian Airlines. The future's not bright.

      It depends on peoples biases who is to blame for the situation Europe finds itself in, and where the timeline starts. 2014 coup could be the start. The fall of the Berlin Wall and the broken promises of nato not moving eastward. Breaking nuclear agreements by the USA. I believe Russia wanted to join NATO in the 1990s but were declined by the collective west…….

      Mechanics are not the problem. It is the availability of certified spare parts, some of which will not be reproducible by Russia. With counterfeit spares the planes will become un airworthy scrap.

    those familiar with the maintenance and repair aspect of commercial flight understand that the inability of Russia to get parts from qualified manufacturers will eventually cause these airplanes to suffer increasingly serious failures. Make no mistake, Russia's commercial airlines are destined to fail completely over time.
