Thanks. But in this case there is the extra complexity of the D-18T not being produced anymore, not to mention the less than cordial Russia vs Ukraine relations as of late. I know their resourcefulness and I'm sure parts can be sourced but I fear they can not extend the useful life of the current engines indefinitely. I really hope this was a "one off" but somehow doubt it.
