Would you fly the Russian Sukhoi Superjet? Let me know... also follow me on instagram.com/gotravelyourway for daily updates!
Yes I would fly it. It looks clean and comfy.
Russia and China - the "enernal emenies" 😅 We need more reportes like Josh to break the prejudices 😊
Yes, I certainly would. Many Western aircraft have had problems in the past, including Boeing, Lockheed, De havilland, McDonnell Douglas - the West has slated Russia and China since I can remember (I'm 63). However, things have changed and Russia and China should be proud of their achievements in the aviation sector. The Sukhoi Super Jet did suffer in the early days, but that seems to be properly sorted and since those events, there must have been thousands of uneventful flights, using the equipment.
Let me say, I'm very fond of Russian people. Here, where I live, in Varna, Bulgaria, many Russians live here too and around 50% of Bulgarians support Russia, as a country - I do and I'm British. And just to add to that, before anyone accuses me of not knowing what I'm talking about, my wife is half Russian.
As you rightly say, Josh, the only difficult thing relating to sanctions, is having to carry cash, but life in Russia, otherwise, is pretty good. I follow other YT channels of expats in Russia and they're all loving the country.
Love your videos, keep up the good work Josh!
Джош изменился после России )) Жаль, что не полетел куда-нибудь во Владивосток или Южно-Сахалинск.
Bravo for you for being neutral in your reviews.
I was looking forward to fly superjet when it flew for cityjet and brussels airlines. Unfortunately, it wasn't to be
I'm a Portuguese citizen who knows something about Russia and aircraft.
Your chronicle was balanced and sincere, and that is what matters to me.
I started visiting Russia in 2011, every year excepting the two fist covid confination years.
It's amazing the growth and progress in any field. I always was treated politely, even friendly, something not common out of Portugal.
I flew innumerable times the Superjet and it has always been comfortable trip on the hands of their flight and cabin crews.
Thank you.
Unless you're brown or black, then the story's different.

Josh I flew back in 2013. You won't believe how amazing their service was, and the Sukhoi plane was just incredible!
4:42 Josh, I have to correct you here - Aeroflot owns the Rossija airlines (which is a part of Aeroflot group together with Pobeda) and they not sold SSJ but rather moved them to Rossija’s fleet. Yes, also due to reputation risks but also to keep Rossija active and strong on internal market. :)
SSJ is more suitable for Rossija, than Aeroflot. Aeroflot is waiting new IL-96 models
Why do you name everything Pobeda? Cringe… weird obsession with “Great Patriotic Special Military Operation”. 😂😂

@@PyromaN93 Just curious any updates about IL-96 that you know?
@@jlzaviation3066 nothing really new. Engines novadays have much longer development and production cycle. Before IL will fly, need to create maintanence ifrastructure and manuals.
EXCELLENT video and commentary, Josh! It's definitely worth noting that in the Superjet's case, both crashes were due to pilot error and not attributed to any malfunction of the aircraft themselves. The denigration of technology other than Western is a long-standing thing; knowing statistics and the standards of production and testing in China and Russia in particular shouldn't lead to any hesitation in flying aboard their domestically-produced aircraft. I took multiple flights aboard old Soviet jetliners during the 1990s when Iived in Russia and never really had concerns about safety, despite everything that was being said in the West. Thanks for your great work!
Good Point!
Honestly, i'd probably feel far safer flying either a Russian or Chinese made jet over any jets built by Boeing (for the time being 😂).
@@justarandombirdlol same
@@justarandombird when a company is run by bean counters rather than engineers like it used to be no surprises that boeing has become a third rate joke. Not to mention being in bed with the FAA. I'd gladly fly on a c919 or a mc-21 or superjet. Time to break up the (almost) Airbus Boeing duopoly
Yes, the safety concerns about the SSJ100 appears to be entirely undeserved. According to the Wikipedia entry, it's been involved in 4 accidents, and at least 3 of them are entirely due to external causes, of which 2 are about pilots disregarding safety. And it's questionable if the fourth one has anything to with flaws in the plane itself. No, I'm not Russian. 😊
Являюсь командиром самолёта Эмбраер. Летал на всех реактивных типах этой фирмы. Е-190 является прямым конкурентом SSJ-100. Мне довелось побывать в этой машине. Многие мои коллеги сегодня переучились на него после Boeing и Airbus. Очень тепло отзываются о SSJ-100.
Лично меня очень впечатлила огромная кабина, по сравнению с Е-190. Очень рад что в России появился такой лайнер.
На подходе ещё ожидается МС-21 или Як-242. Это уже конкурент B и А.

А теперь подставим гордый НОЛЬ на производство российских самолетов - ни один не был выпущен, ни один не налетал нисколько часов на российских двигателях. Так что да, у Зимбабве тоже аварийность ни как у Боинга, когда нет самолета, нет аварийности 😂
@@Whocares_carioca действительно много и Боингов и Аэробусов. Процент инцидентов огромен на всех самолётах. У нас только за год около 10! Отказов выпуска закрылков. На моём веку было три!!! Разгерметизации только у меня. Есть проблемы с двигателями. А вот на новеньких российских самолётах таких проблем нет. И вот ещё. Самый летающий самолёт в РФ это как раз SSJ-100. А то что двигателей нет...так будут. Их же в России делают. А горячую часть (которая и явилась Ахиллесовой пятой этого самолета) делали во Франции. Сейчас будут производить в РФ.
А ваш глупый сарказм говорит только что вы земляк из Украины. Только у нас она появилась благодаря России, но благодаря такой же бездарной политике, как и в РФ в 90е , она у нас уже в прошлом, а вот у соседей она снова будет развиваться.
It is good that you hold people accountable for being dismissive and rude about other countries competing for a place in the industry. I thought this looked like a very nice flight. Good , fair and honest review.
However this airframe is garbage. Aeroflot’s (still the largest user by some margin) fleet manage less than 25% availability and every airline outside of Russia that had them either returned them or just stopped using them as they were so unreliable, as did two Russian airlines. Interjet in Mexico actually went bankrupt because of the issues caused by this airframe.
@@sonorbloke this is exactly what he's talking about. You'll provide no sources for these claims will u? All mindless hate
Many components from Russian and Chinese are direct rip-offs from the West. That needs to be remembered. Other than that, it's great to see.
@@sonorbloke
You’re 100% correct, however, these folks are just “Haters”. Haters will just hate. Remember what they say, “If you put enough “thrust” on a crane, it will fly too”. SSJ is and was a disaster. That’s why Aeroflot gave them to Rossiya. The CPSM, due to the high fuel burn rate, makes this aircraft unprofitable in the “West”, but if you have access to unlimited fuel, then there’s no problem.
I am never going to told who is my “enemy’ by jackass Biden and the MSM.
I first visited Russia in 1998. Even though it was a chaotic time (currency and economic issues), I felt like I had been lied to my whole life. Growing up in Cold War/Reagan & Bush America, I was told a much different story of Russia and its people than what I found to be reality. Russia is one of the few places I have visited many times where every time the place has improved.
I completely support you. Russia is not simply different from what the Western media tells, its literally another reality from what they tell. There are still some problems with smaller cities (although they improve rapidly as well) but Moscow and Saint Petersburg are just the two BEST cities in the whole of Europe and probably among the top-10 best in the whole world.
I bet it's very beautiful and the people are nice but it's just not the safest place to be right now because of a certain guy who likes wars.
@@FinlandGuy747 "Because of a certain guy who likes wars" could describe MANY leaders of MANY countries, including my own, the US.
@@LadyBeyondTheWall I know and agree but we both know who im talking about
I felt the same way as I got to know China better. The perspective in the West on China is skewed and quite hypocritical. A lot seems to actually be transference.
One of the very few aviation journalist that is doing MORE than just aviation but also countries, people, and different views of the world. RESPECT RESPECT RESPECT.
Russia has aircraft filled with supermodels.
Meanwhile, in America... we have Karens, fistfights, door blowouts...
Russia also doesn't have parts for the vast majority of their planes which has resulted in over 70% of them being grounded and also numerous accidents... But sure, worth it for the supermodels to you I guess
@@ATLPtrk70%😂
@@diceshard2436 pretty common knowledge the sanctions have destroyed Russian aviation. Even Josh, ya know the guy who’s videos your watching, has spoken about planes being grounded and many torn apart for spare parts to keep others going….
@@ATLPtrk yeah, he said that, and he also said that we steal planes, although he just didn't understand what he read in the news, and at the same time he told how we build our new planes and how Iran has been coping with sanctions for several decades and they don't work. Don't you see how every his statement contradicts the other? It seems to me that people who listen to western mainstream media develop schizophrenia.
Of course, we have problems after the sanctions, but they result only in higher prices for air tickets, because spare parts can be purchased in third countries through parallel imports and what about new planes - we build them. I have a lot of friends studying in different cities here, and I also did (graduated a year ago), and we all flew and still fly by planes. Except for the price, nothing has changed. The only time I had problems was when, due to hail in my city, I had to land in the neighboring one. And Josh's flight was canceled due to weather conditions too, because he decided to fly around Russia in the winter in -20°C - a very smart thing to do. So I can assure you, there are difficulties, they result in an increased prices, but this doesn't mean that 7 out of 10 of our planes do not take off, this is absurd
Russia has country filled with supermodels
Thank you Josh for this video!!! It was very nice to fly with you 🥰
Thanks for the great flight and nice seeing you here - all the best 😊
Oh, that’s you??? Wow!!
@@JoshCahill im glad that u respect all countries and all peoples we are Citizen of this planet
Evgeniia and Alisa were def top notch. I noticed they were showing lots of interest, I wonder why 😉🔥💯
That’s the most profound thing any flight reviewers have said, about respecting the Chinese and Russian aviation industries. Not just complaining about the service, caviar and wine. This is by far your best narrated video.
I don't think Boeing have a right to criticize recently.Their 737 Max has horrendous recent history plus Ryanair (not that I consider Ryanair an airline more a flying bus service) are in a mess due to delays from Boeing.
I for one prefer flying Airbus when I can but would certainly try Russian or Chinese should foreign airlines buy them.
Russia has a long hustory history of aviation excellence and innovation. Good to see they are building on that capability!

true 🥲
Russians are very emmotional and Patriotic people they feel the sourness in their heart when they hear something bad about anything related to their Country. As Indian I can too fell what she must have felt at the very moment when she heard the word SANCTIONS. Just like any Indian feel when the word SCAM is associated with India even if they have nothing to do with that or they may also be against that but.....
They already have sanction for many years😂😂😂
Quite controversial Josh can be sometimes. He said, one can only book a direct flight from the russian airport to europe through Serbia, yet he is there booking a direct flight to europe through Turkiye. How is that possible Josh?.. 🤔
@@4evertrue830 by booking directly with the airline
What is really a little annoying is the repetition of the thesis about the impossibility of using bank cards in Russia. What is the problem? Go to any bank and get a MIR card in 30 minutes. There are banks that will issue and bring a bank card and a contract by phone call. You will enter all your personal data into the bank's app on your smartphone.
P.S. Does the banking system work at the same speed in your country?
Most people haven't realized yet that Russia is the leading country in terms of digitalized economy. And what is even more funny, is that most people doesn't even aware what digitalized economy is all about.
@@MrZlocktar Russian Service - Best service in the world (sorry, my english bad)
lol. what else? No one needs your mir card that sponsors war and sells data on a black market. Also, it's almost impossible for foreigners to retrieve money back from your "peace" card
@@MrZlocktarI think you will find that the majority of people in western nations are against this sort of thing. That’s why there is a pushback against card only use
Now explain how to connect that card to an account in a Western bank. Otherwise it is a classic suitcase without a handle for a Western tourist.
Josh shy with the stewardess 😂
Those stewardesses must have found it as a bad joke, that a european ist coming to russia to test the airlines, while so many russians try to get out of the country and leave the opressive police state system, where you can´t even raise a blank paper without spending at least one night in jail. At least they are leaving a good impression to theier superrior officer in this video, so they probably are keeping their jobs. Making a smile to that really bad situation.

I've been to several countries, and am now living in the Philippines, and no matter where I've been, people are people, not their governments. Also, I think it's good that other countries are getting into the commercial airline market - competition breeds a better product.
''competition breeds a better product?''...y'know I'd like to think so too, until some manufacturer starts cutting costs and corners to meet the price advantage of another.
maybe but it's the people of that country that are dying and killing in Ukraine so no sympathy for anything or anyone in russia

I have flown on Sukhoi Superjet 100 and I love it ❤
As a passenger, I didn’t see any difference between Sukhoi Superjet and Boeing or Airbus at all during the flight. It was comfortable in airplane in all aspects 🇷🇺👍
I wonder how people think a country that has the biggest nuclear arsenal can't build a jet.
Russia is a terrorist state
Especially considering that it has been building them for over 100 years now and has been actually pretty good at it.
@@yurikozhokin8348 There is a big difference between a military aircraft or a civilian one. For a civilian, payback, cost of operation, and seating capacity are very important.
@@ningtanagrey9141 Russia has been building civilian aircrafts for 100 years now. All on its own, no outsourcing to the rest of the world. Yeah, they were were not the best economically, but they did the work and did it well.
Easy: certification barriers to protect EU/US products. A plane consists not only of a fuselage and an engine. There are many systems inside that need to be checked and certified to allow a plane fly over other countries. So there's no sense to invent something from scratch for a plane and spend years waiting for certification. Everyone uses main modules from well known producers. So a SSJ-100 was the same. Russian body and interior with foreign engine and avionics. It's the shortcut to certification. Same for cars. Creating a product from zero takes time and your first one should not be as good as the one from the world's leader. But it can work
I want to visit Russia so much. Hope to get that chance one day. Thanks Josh for another great video

По-моему, ты не понял суть видео /:
Но с коммента поржал, спасибо
@@user-wr7kx1ye4r Я все понял. Лет 15 все понимаю. Читаю, что они пишут, слушаю, что говорят. И даже тут, вроде адекватная позиция, что другие тоже могут делать вещи, но снисхождением прямо воняет. И так во всем. Танки - старые советской эпохи, будто абрамс 21 века, корабли союз старые и ненадежные (и в сериалах, и в сюжетах, и в видео на ютубе), и плевать, что американские космические программы убили вдвое больше людей, чем союзы. Вот именно это и есть пропаганда, где эмоции, представления и стереотипы определяют отношение, а не факты. Я уже не говорю про то, что запад закрыл свои рынки, но захватывает чужие. Если кто-то где-то что-то делает, что угрожает их доминации - сразу санкции, квоты и тд. Я с иностранцами и вживую наобщался, и никогда не покидало ощущение, что общаюсь с инфантами. Кругозор, эрудиция, практические знания - все на уровне подростков. И эго как у подростка. Высокомерие и всезнайство, не подкрепленное ничем. Говорить про суперджет на фоне еженедельных новостей и скандалов с боингами, смертью инженера, дававшего показания, - просто верх наглости. Так что я теперь им подыгрываю. Ты же не споришь с городскими сумасшедшими. Ты с ними соглашаешься. Так и тут.
@@user-pl5cf3xv7m честно говоря в этом видео я не заметил какого-либо снисходительного отношения, особенно, если посмотреть другие видео на этом канале. Напротив, он похвалил самолёт и осудил тех, кто делает, как Вы описали. Касаемо бесед с иностранцами, видимо просто мы общаемся в разных кругах. Не могу сказать, что мои знакомые Европейцы узколобые и находятся на уровне подростков. Да, их кругозор меньше, чем, например, у меня. За других я говорить не могу, привожу только свой опыт. Но при этом в сфере их деятельности они действительно являются профессионалами и знают очень много всего. А то, что танки, корабли, ракеты старые - так это просто пропаганда, как-будто у нас её никогда не было. Большинство людей или слишком глупы, чтобы строить своё мнение на информации, которую можно получить из разных источников, или слишком ленивы для этого. Для таких людей самый простой вариант просто следовать тому, что говорит им среда их жизни. Тут дело в том, что с уличным сумасшедшим спорить действительно нет смысла. Также и обсуждать какую-либо технику с людьми, которым СМИ их стран говорят, что она ужасна - смысла нет.
Мужик, видео месячной давности, всех этих новостей с боингом еще не было в таком масштабе!
That commentary about cheering for other nations was so good! Great video Josh
Once again a great video! Love to see Russian aviation through your lense!
Hats off to you for speaking out. People are quick to judge and belittle other nations, especially most of them who’ve done so have probably never stepped foot on these countries nor in the airplanes you’ve been on. There are good and bad in every countries (same with the people)
Interjet, a Mexican ultra-low cost carrier operated a few Superjet 100 for a brief time but had difficulty sourcing parts. It was needless to say an interesting plane.
Josh, I'm a subscriber from Mumbai. I think you're doing a really great job of documenting the aviation and the real world. Your thoughts come from an honest and truthful place and that's what I appreciate the most in your videos. You visit and check out the place for yourself and only then do you give an opinion. More power to you!
Well done with this Sukhoi review. I would have loved an economy class review but I'm sure you'll have a video for that too. All the best!
It is so refreshing in a world of biased opinions and short-sited ideals and politics that you truly do your best to keep your personal feelings that don’t reflect airliners and travel aside and to yourself! It’s generally the people who voice the strongest opinions and beliefs the most that are the ones with very little to no experience in what they are talking about. If anyone could formulate a true opinion in those matters it’s you because you’ve experienced various cultures and political climates first hand yet you still encourage your viewers to formulate their own conclusions. This is why I love your channel so much!

0:17 Indonesia - a disaster due to the fault of the controller, he gave a low altitude, the plane crashed into a mountain in heavy fog. second crash - hard vertical landing, pilot error
In Indonesia, the pilot ignored the TWAS of the aircraft... which should have raised him some concerns (when you hear "Terrain, pull up!" you should, first, PULL UP and than try to see why you got the warning), regarding what the controller was telling him. This showed that Russians actually made a plane with good safety systems on board, but the test pilot just thought himself better (or he didn't trust his plane... even if he had on board representative from companies interested in buying the plane).
They've made Space Shuttles, MIGs and Sukhoi fighters for gods sake, I think they can build a passenger aeroplane
They can but are they safe? 😂 Not really
Finally someone said it.

They can but it’s a simple fact that their aviation technology always relied heavily on Western technology. Oh, and the Russian Space Shuttle never flew btw ;)
@@jounaas actually there were no incidents with these planes related to mechanical failures, not a single one. The crashes mentioned in the vid are all because of pilot mistakes.
Well said Josh. Respect other cultures and the people who live in them. Politics is one thing thing of course, but people are people, and no normal person would wish a war. I have been fortunate to travel the world extensively in my 68 years on this earth, and always, always respect the culture and the people who's country I'm visiting. The so called warriors on X and other social media platforms are ignorant of anything outside of their own very little and boring world and seem to think they know it all and spew their horrible rhetoric to others. Sadly, other follow which makes this small world we live in, not a very nice place in 2024 sadly. Please keep up the great work you do, and truly hope some of your words of wisdom make the warriors think that maybe they should get a life.
Really enjoyable and enlightening vid, Josh, this world needs more people with your attitude. In my younger days I travelled a lot (58 countries & all continents except Antarctica) and visited Russia (USSR then) on several occasions and by and large found the Russian people some of the friendliest and hospitable people I have have been fortunate to meet. Looking forward to upcoming posts. Good luck to you.
It hurts when people of other countries belittle a nation's efforts. Hurts a lot more when countrymen do the same with their our country and the arguments are rarely technical or logical. Just bigoted and abusive. Thanks for your open mind. I always had a soft corner for the Superjet. Glad to see you enjoyed the flt. Hoping against hope that other airlines pick it up as well.
Josh, you say that you shouldn't be too positive on certain companies but let's see, nothing should prevent or diminish the superlatives if they are justified !! We are waiting for real feedback without any self-confidence whatsoever !! Be yourself 100%, that’s what we appreciate about you.
💥 Russia did not start making airliners yesterday, in fact it holds many records in commercial aviation... like first supersonic commercial passenger transport for example... Just because you don't read or hear about it in western media does not mean it does not exist.
Ilyushin, Tupolev, Yakovlev are all ancient and still existing commercial aircraft manufacturers in Russia, Sukhoi only recently entered that sector of aviation.
Josh,
You received excellent service from the crew.
The Superjet's cabin is very well appointed and very quiet . Thank you sharing this trip with us.
the crew was very beautiful 😍😍😍
Great review, interesting thoughts, finally someone who is not afraid to say things how they are. That’s what journalism is all about
Your message as an tech and space enthusiast was heart touching love you 🥰
This aircraft is impressive
I mean people should respect achievement from all around the globe regardless if its not even from western part of the world.... Great video Josh
Great video Josh, I really like your attitude toward up and coming aviation in non western countries. I've really enjoyed your Russian adventure.
I’m a Brit with Russian family. Thanks for being fair to the country and aircraft. Kudos
thank you for bringing up and talking abt the casual racism which takes place on social media
Agreed
👍
Agreed, if anything the product of Indigo and service of Aeroflot, and some Chinese airlines are much better than Western analogues in my experiences.
Nothing compared to CZcams. Cept now they just put you in CZcams jail for 24hours
The Sukhoi jet seems lovely, though a bit loud. The cabin crew is lovely.
I flew on a Rossiya 747-400 between Crimea and St. Petersburg, and it was a great experience.
I'm not really going to comment much on the accomplishments of other countries with regards to aviation. I will say that, while it should be noted that other countries still rely a lot on western technology to build their aircraft, we must also acknowledge the fact that these western companies rely on foreign engineering talent, so it all works together.
beautiful comments about Russia, china and india. respect from Pakistan
I did not flown on Sukho SJ i, but one friend of mine flew to Russia on a Sukhoi Superjet plane with Red Wings Airlines. he liked the plane as well
I flew a couple of times in 2018/2019 on Brussels Airlines (Leased from Cityje t 🇮🇪). Sukhol Superjet, Nice jet, but it had unreliability problems, The jet I flew to Edinburgh had been in maintenance for 4 days previously On the return flight, 5 days later it was a different Superjet , Outbound jet had been grounded for various tech issues.
Josh says it’s better than ANY Boeing or Airbus jet
Most likely maintanance problems. It's not that easy for Sukhoi to establish such servicing network as Boeing or Airbus abroad.

6:41 IT IS SO CUTE 🥰 ❤
Josh looked shy and smitten at the same time hehe 😊
@@PollyDVB Thank goodness Josh wasn't in his usual attire - wearing shorts!
What was that body language? 😂
That's it I'm booking a flight to Russia.
She’s stunning
Spot on Josh regarding your take on other countries making advancements. In the states sometimes we have this attitude that things are only ok or of value as long as we’re the ones doing them. Shouldn’t be that way.
Josh...thank you for your thoughts and words at the end of this post, I could not agree more!!
Thank you for yet another excellent video, Josh. The Sukhoi SSJ looks like a really nice aircraft, and I hoped it would provide good competition to Embraer. Sadly it looks like that won't happen soon. It is also great that Russia and China want to compete with A & B in building airplanes. I hope they succeed. Regarding the India moon landing, most of the nasty comments came from one country only and it is easy to guess which that is. Even that country's leaders made silly comments about it. But good that India did not care.
Great video! I am really glad you took a few minutes to remind people to be humble in their comments.
Josh, I love your honesty and sincerity. Lets not forget that Ilyushin and Tupolev aircraft opened up a huge area of the world. Western aircraft companies had never considered the operation of commercial aircraft in the climatic conditions that these aircraft were built for. Forget the politics and give credit where it's due. Keep up your unbiased opinions please
I am German and I moved to Russia. We fly with Superjet and YAK-42 and it is good. I have an exciting life with alot of nature, healthy food and beautiful girls without tattoos and with long natural hair.
A few Suhoi SuperJet planes flew for a few years for Brussels Airlines, I think until 2019. I don't know what engines did they have, but eventually Brussels Airlines cancelled the lease contract due to low disponibility of the planes (apparently, spare parts were hard to get from Russia).
Funny thing is they had Russian-French engines, and most of the troubles were with French-made hot section.

Boeing doesn't crash?
I don't spend much time watching CZcams videos, with some exceptions, and you channel is one of them. I did start watching PoletMe aviation videos as well a few months back, and his channel really shows what the Russian people are like, which is wonderful. Aircraft reviews aside, to see a people who are polite, orderly, not obnoxious, as I've seen on these videos and have also experienced in my visit to Russia, is something we in the USA could learn from. And that's the benefit of those CZcams bloggers who do an excellent job.
Wonderful comments. What makes all of us and all our countries better is competition. The competition to build something better and more efficient and proud.
In the west, the US, specifically, there seems to be this notion that success is finite, and we shouldn't let anyone else have any. I am still an absolute Boeing fan boy, but if it takes better competition for Boeing to straighten up, all the better.
It's a bit unfortunate that boeing had to kill 360 people as part of their Max development program.
I love flying planes that are different! I was trying to Fly the comac when I was over in China and would love to try the Sukhoi
First time on this channel. This isn't a review. This is diplomacy.
You misspelled propaganda.
Actually, a plastic card is not really needed in Russia for electronic payments. A virtual card is enough. All you need to do is have a phone. You can bring a phone with an NFC chip to the terminal and that’s enough. If you have an old phone without a chip, you can pay almost everywhere from the bank app. You can open a bank account and create a virtual card in a couple of minutes by simply downloading and installing the bank’s application.
Hi Josh! Excellent video about Russian SuperJet)
But I offer you try to fly on AN-24 or AN-2 in Yakutsk.
Because firstly Yakutsk the coldest city in the world. The second that AN-24 on of the oldest aircraft which is operated by airlines.
Probably you will be scared to perform it😂
But I think it’ll be really interesting and incredible video.
Hopefully you see this comment)
Like this comment guys)
Good food,skinny flight attendants, new plane. Why would I want that?
I'm a Guatemalan living in the USA and when i fly i trust the American made 737 max, i also trust the extensive training that u.s pilots go through, but i also admire Russia, China and Brazil for their achievements in the commercial aviation industry, i really hope some day soon their aircrafts are able to compete with Boeing and Airbus, i applaud them
I do not believe the Russians should be beating up on my friends in Ukraine. However, I do not hate the Russians, and want them to fly safely at home and abroad. If Russia is strong in aviation, this takes nothing away from me. I would fly the Sukhoi Superjet. I would fly Rossiya! I'm a little bit envious, Josh! Happy Trails!!!
"don't belittle other nations efforts...and be respectful to each other...."....
Thank you Josh 👍👍👍
Pretty sure the plane crash in 2019 had no design flaw in it, the pilots just werent trained well
Well, it was one or the other reason, but crashed.
Saya dari Indonesia
Ikut sedih ada Sukhoi Superjet 100 pernah jatuh di negara kami dan menjadi tidak populer pesawat itu dipilih di negara kami.
Semoga dengan video ini banyak maskapai Indonesia mau membeli SSJ100
I don't usually comment on your posts, I just usually watch in awe of the amazing places that you visit. However I must agree with what you said. Competition in every sector of industry is important, especially for us consumers. Not only does it make things better, it also makes things cheaper, thus more easily attainable. If we only ever rely on certain brands/names/companies, they know that they each have their loyal customers who will buy from them without question. Then they can continuously raise their costs, knowing their devout customers will keep buying. If industries didnt have the 'disruptors' then these large companies will not have any reason to compete, or offer more things to their customers. Far too many people these days automatically think that just because a company has a popular brand, that means they are getting the best item, when with a little research you would most likely be able to find something very similar, or even better for much less. Keep up the great work, and safe travels x
3:16 What? Escape the mobilization? You're 1,5 years late, it was back in October 2022.
Politics needs to have no place here so thank you so much! Part of what I love about this channel is I can just escape the world and it's issues
Love your commentary on people mocking the COVAC and Sukhoi jets. It’s so true. Some of the rubbish we see online is just silly.
The crew is super nice. Haven't seen one like this for a long time...
its so true. There is nothing wrong with making jokes, but we should never see others as below us we should cheer everyone up no matter their position, state or power.
👍
I agree. Russian and Chinese airlines should be allowed in the "competition".
Very happy to discover the tremendous quality of this Aircraft , I wish to have them operated by more Airlines. Thanks Josh
Facts…you’re a good man, Josh. I may not agree with every single thing you say but then that’s what makes us investigate other points of view. Dialogue is good and aircraft and air travel is, like music, good food and life is what binds us all.
Thank you for being honest ❤
0:10 Did you say a troubled past with two fatal crashes? I guess it's doing OK if we can use the obsolete 737-Max design as our comparator?
He literally mentions that later in the video if u bothered to watch it in full
@@smilesmite6682 My first time ever being slightly frustrated and not watching the entire Josh Cahill video... I have a soft spot for the Sukhoi Design Bureau and Josh Cahill so short-circuited...
@@Michael.Chapman ?? Yeah if u watched the whole video he literally went on a mini rant about western double standards in regards to Russian and Chinese aircraft while the 737MAX had all its issues but u didn’t bother to watch that.
@@smilesmite6682 that’s all great! However the first words out of Josh’s mouth were critical of Sukhoi-I switched off, that’s my prerogative.
@@Michael.Chapman Uhm it wasn’t critical at all it was an introduction to the video, meant to ask the question is this a good plane to fly, and then that question was answered later in the video, you are acting really childish about this I won’t lie.
Thanks for taking us along Josh, great vlog as usual. See the human side of every trip!
I live this little plane. Feels like a strong little bull on the air. Space seats and lovely flights between Istanbul and Sochi.
Southwest Airlines Pilots flew almost 40,000 flights with the MAX prior to the grounding, which is more than 89,000 flight hours. Since the grounding was lifted Southwest Airlines have flown over 312,000 flights which accounts for almost 1 million flight hours with no issues because the PILOTS know how to FLY an aircraft without all the “bells and whistles”, i.e. “computer flies the aircraft”. Isn’t in strange that the flight crews involved in the “deaths” were as young as 21? Pilot error was ultimately the cause of those deaths. Single Sensor MCAS, maybe bad design, but the pilots should have disabled MCAS and auto-trim and FLEW the plane. MCAS maintenance by the airline wasn’t performed after being written up in Lion Air crash and totally unprofessional piloting in Ethiopia’s crash. Disappointed in your comments.
By talking so much about putting politics aside and personal opinions, you’ve made it political.
He kind of did, didn't he? Can't resist it himself and doesn't realize that's not something he should even touch upon since he is no political analysts and doesn't understand why conflicts occur.
Another great video, Thank you Josh.
Thank you, Josh
Thank you for your sense of empathy💔
Greeting from Russia
Congratulations on making it out of Russia! Other western journalists haven't been so lucky.
I flew the SSJ100 from MIA to CUN on Interjet. The plane was almost brand new, but many parts of the passenger cabin were broken or inoperative.
The airline cited the SSJ as one of the main reasons they went bankrupt.
You mean Ukraine. American journalist Gonzalo Lira was muirdered in Ukraninas prison a month ago.
@@fatherofchristmasyou mean this failed pick-up artist and Russian propagandist?

No, Navalny.

Laughingly, his body had bruise marks, open wounds, kept him in a 4’ cell, and held the body until all forensics wouldn’t be able to determine how much “Novichok” was used or “Plutionium”. Keep inhaling that “Copium”
