Tupolev TU-204 landing Mexico Airport

TU-204-100E
Is a twin-engined medium-range jet airliner capable of carrying 210 passengers, designed by Tupolev and produced by Aviastar SP and Kazan Aircraft Production Association. First introduced in 1989, it is considered to be broadly equivalent to the Boeing 757 and has competitive performance and fuel efficiency in its class. It was developed for Aeroflot as a replacement for the medium-range Tupolev Tu-154 trijet. The latest version, with significant upgrades and improvements, is the Tu-204SM, which performed its first flight on 29 December 2010

The problem with Tupolev is partly political, it'll be a long time before politics allows any major western airline to buy them.

All aircraft crash at some time, but we don't go around saying theyre inherently unsafe when 747's, A330's etc crash do we?

@maks7abramov Better? Oh man, Tupolev is better, ahaha, just laughing

[maks7abramov]

@thomaspiol Because Tupolev is better than the Boeing, and is cheaper than the Airbus

[thomaspiol]

Why buy Tupolev not Boeing or Airbus

The TU-204 is such a beautiful plane. Its a shame we don't get to see more of it in the West
