A new start up airline Dream Wind has registered two Boeing 737- 300 on the Ukrainian registry, the first UR-CRL (first registered in 1990) and UR-CRM (first registered in 1991). I personally cannot understand why anyone would register old aircraft when the minister of infrastructure announced on Thursday that all passenger jet aircraft over twenty years will be removed from the Ukraine register before the start of 2019. I am reliably informed that the Yak-40's of Motor Sich airlines are to be donated to museums in Ukraine.
Almost all Ukrainian airlines will have to remove some aircraft from their fleets when the new law comes into effect including UIA and Wind Rose.
