hi Anton, How about the Tu-134's at Syktyvkar. How many stored at this moment. Will they preserve one Tu-134 for the future. Any flight with the type to and from Syktyvkar (Centre South/Katekavia)? I want to visit Russia in may/june. Hope for a scheduled Tu-134 flight ? Greetings from The Netherlands Andre

hi Andre, all Tu-134's at Syktyvkar were destroyed. I don't know exactly what about other Tu-134 in Centre South, but all Tu-134 in Katekavia (RA-65977,RA-65560,RA-65565) handed to airline "TURUHANAVIA". That aircrafts will flying only charter flights, but i don't know where. May be Ufa, Perm, Naryan-Mar, Usinsk.

Hi Anton. I am glad I flew to Syktyvkar in 2012 and 2013 Led-SCW-VKO with the Tu-134 and met Roman Impolitov, Artem Klimov and friends. They showed me around the airport. About 22 Tu-134's were stored back than. I wish more were still flying. Interesting about the new Airline Tuhuranavia. That's new to me. I hope for Centre South flights beginning of june between Naryan-Mar and Ufa. we can even book those flights in The Netherlands but they are once in a while. maybe the summer will bring more scheduled flights with the Tu-134. I don't care what destination. if you know more let me know. I will follow your pictures on the internet.

at airline "Alrosa" still flying one Tu-134 (RA-65693) Irkutsk and Novosibirsk, .

Ok, so Alrosa is still flying the Tu-134.
What about booking Tu-154 flights on scheduled service ?
Alrosa Tu-154 ? Gazpromavia Tu-154? Kosmos Airlines Tu-154? Other companies flying Tu-154?
Vologda Yak-40 ? Gazpromavia Yak-40 ? Other companies flying Yak-40 ?

Gazpromavia Tu-154 and Yak-42, Kosmos Tu-154 not flying, Vologda to Yak-40 schedule until March 2015. Now Yak-40 very small on schedule flights, mostly business aviation.

So Gazpromavia is the Airline to get the Tu-154 this summer. I hope Vologda will continue flying the Yak-40. Is Syktyvkar still interesting for me to do some photography around the airport this summer. Do you think a couple of Tu-134 are still there this summer ? An-24 flights from Syktyvkar? And how about booking flights on the Let 410 ? gr Andre

Can I get permission to get on the ramp? If possible I want to pay some money for acces. Think about a visit to Syktyvkar once again.
