I haven't heard of any accidents in civilian air traffic in Russia in last few years. Of course you're free to make your choices.
Anyway, don't overestimate the issue: 2.5% of the fleet seems to be grounded right now.
- jhugo 2y agoHmm, I think you may have just not been paying attention? There was the Superjet that crashed and burned at Lukhovitsy just a few months ago, the A320 that ran out of fuel and landed in the field near Novosibirsk a year ago, the AN26 that crashed in 2021, the Superjet that crashed and burned at Moscow in 2019…
- sedan_baklazhan 2y agoI forgot about the incident at Lukhovitsy - that was w/o passengers. 2019/2021 incidents are completely out of scope of "recent years".

- the_mitsuhiko 2y ago> I haven't heard of any accidents in civilian air traffic in Russia in last few years. Not very hard, now that reports are no longer publicly available. Prior to 2022 you would still find that information on avherald and other places. That said, even with the little amount of information going out, in the last 5 years alone Russia had at least 8 hull losses with more than 80 fatalities.
