And by the way, .....G.V Novozhilov is still alive and just celebrated his 91st bithday on October 27. That is a man we should be celebrating for his achievements and for giving us such beauties as IL-62, IL-76 and IL-86. Here is a short article, written late year, celebrating the life of the aviation genius at age 90.
Having been attacked with constructing my statements similar to those of a successful businessman is not negative in my opinion when solely referring to his business. Ofcource there are statements he makes which I in no way endorse. Looking at that election overall the only thing I can see is two worse than horrible candidates and nothing more. I would still prefer either over our prime minister in Sweden but it is ridiculously hard to be worse than him and even harder for the Swedish population to be as stupid that they voted for him (I did not). I do not have the rights to vote in that country but I encourage the American people to vote for whoever the see as "least bad". For me I could not care less about America´s internal problems (obamacare, walls, emails, racism, pipelines, women, abortions, inter american relations, local companies) and for my country's needs there is a clear option.
Let's keep this on topic and non-political, shall we?
Being a lessor of a large number of SSJs used by alliance members to attack competitors' positions, all I can say is that both me and my lessees would love a possible capacity increase with SSJ! SSJ is a "battleground" aircraft.
I can only agree
I am more interested in seeing true representation (whether I use the aircraft or not). I find that many players are only very interested in an aircraft's representation when they are using it. I generally prefer to use the indefatigable Antonov for my battles in A/S however, I still believe the SSJ deserves fair representation. Interestingly, the reason why Antonov limited the stretch of the An-158 to 99 seats is exactly because they wanted to avoid competing with the SSJ - at the end of the day, quite unfortunately, A/S decided that they would make the SSJ the same size as the An-158. Hopefully, this will be corrected soon.
Ilyushin site said IL-96-300 max payload is 40t
