Briefing
Regulators have drafted joint unscheduled inspections covering more than 50 regional carriers, signalling a coordinated nationwide enforcement action by Rosaviatsia and Rostransnadzor.
The move follows recent domestic safety events and enforcement steps, including the Angara An-24 crash, the regulator's move to shut down Angara Airlines, and targeted fuselage fastener inspections on Sukhoi Superjet 100s, which provide immediate context for heightened scrutiny.
Inspections come amid operational strain from parts and maintenance pressures, illustrated by carriers cannibalising freighters for spares and Moscow's public push to ease sanctions that affect spare-part supplies.
