      This is just a teaser trailer of things to come.
      I’m following news on the internal situation in Russia in an unhealthily obsessive manner that makes me reach for information that most people would find terribly mundane and boring, stuff like economic reports on various sectors, local governments and their budgets, business legislation, affairs of state-owned enterprises etc. and let me tell you that the mundane is where it gets really interesting.
      Russia was never a particularly well-maintained country, but since the war begun, the practice of sweeping problems under the rug and the pace of the resulting decay has reached such ungodly ferocity that I honestly believe that it wouldn’t be possible to comprehend for someone living in a place like Germany, Britain or even most of Italy.

      Everything in Russia right now that isn’t directly tied to the war effort is in the “hopefully it will be someone else’s problem when this catastrophically breaks” mode of maintenance, there is simply no money and personnel assigned to it. That goes for everything from elevators and boilers to the system of disease control, it’s an absolute fucking pandemonium waiting to happen.
      If this war goes on for another year or two, the Ukrainian saboteurs will look like omnipresent demigods, because stuff will be blowing up and falling apart all over Russia at a scale that people will be unable to accept as a result of negligence, because, like I said that, that negligence is borderline unfathomable.

      When this invasion ends and the decision is made to potential allow Russian aircraft back into our airspace we need to decide do we want that safety record of theirs flying over our heads and potentially dropping out of the sky especially as their access to key spare parts is basically zero besides what they can smuggle in and cannibalize from other planes.

      I am 100% sure we do not know about more than a fraction of plane crashes in russia / soviet union. Because the crashes we do know about show such rampant disregard for safety, sanity, and procedure.

      I think this is now getting worse, as in crashes are happening more and information is more aggressively repressed, even from russian officials and citizens.

      Same goes for various other disasters.

    7. wdym all passengers were killed? You mean they were killed before the crash? Or you mean they all are dead due to a crash?

      This might the first in more to come sadly. As others said before, airplanes need a steady stream of spare parts, which is now not possible. Let’s not get ahead of ourselves though, there are many reasons why this could have happened. I am not expecting an unbiased report from the Russian Authorities though.
