Russia’s Potemkin Miracle: The story of Ural Airlines flight 178 | by Admiral Cloudberg | Medium

Thanks for posting this punkalouver. quite interesting to say the least. and so sad to read the conclusions and the end remarks on the regulatory battles still going on. . The efforts of MAK to bring Russia aviation into the 21st century were clearly visible until a few years ago in all ICAO meetings I attended .The traditionally old Soviet era bureaucrats only speaking Russian, were replaced by younger technically educated staff that spoke fluently English and knew what they were talking about. All that stopped in a sudden and sadly it looks like Russia has not let go of the old era where corruption and vodka prevailed.
