Tass said the Russian transport ministry had drawn up a draft bill to help airlines until September 2022. It would also suspend all planned and unscheduled inspections of carriers, the Russian news agency reported.
Boeing (NYSE:BA) Co and Airbus SE (OTC:EADSY) – the world’s two largest aircraft manufacturers – have suspended the supply of components and services to Russian airlines, a move that will likely make it harder to maintain planes.
The bill would allow “the repair of aircraft and the replacement of components by third-party companies, as long as they meet the requirements for companies that are involved in maintenance,” Tass said. It did not give details.
Russian President Vladimir Putin earlier on Saturday said Moscow was in talks with aircraft leasing companies to resolve potential issues linked to sanctions.
Russia’s state aviation authority is recommending that domestic airlines with foreign-leased aircraft suspend passenger and cargo flights abroad from Russia from March 6 and from foreign countries to Russia starting on March 8 to prevent their possible seizure.
