Just to make some comments to Metrojet/Kolavia info

- Company (it's holding of travel and charter companies) is half owned by Turkish citizen.
- Aviation part is operates since 1993.
- There was two hull losses since, both with Tu-154

There is a lot of speculation lately of poor financial state (unconfirmed), poor maintenance complains (unconfirmed or denied), salary delay for flight crews and pilots forced to fly broken planes (sources suspicious).
