will talk about next to the tenth international aviation sprayed shell is kicking off just outside moscow this russian aviation show will house planes and food for all over the world business people are flocking to strike a multi-million dollar contract and visitors are gathering to watch down their performances russian head of foreign based what else do the organizers hype up this week give the director of the night's heavy ation show blood's in their forty's that they had the russian heavy asian industry department you wouldn't see this on to. the international education space show or mats was launched in russia just two decades ago but has managed to gain weight very quickly financial experts know the deals done at the russian and shows not yet as big as the world's oldest paris and show. but unlike its french counterpart max is growing rapidly which

gives businessman a reason for optimism to the last max so deals worth over ten billion dollars and this year organizers surely want to beat it. as. workplace does next occupy among other international air shows and how is it different from them. we'll leave that it's not quite appropriate as they say bentley in terms of places you know i don't mean whether it's number one or second best etc what i mean is what makes max special because every air show has something special about it right. yes that's right it's all the major international and shows that take place in paris along russia china news has something that makes them different. max definitely reigns among the top five world and shows that appear to be worse makes it different from all the other shows it's

probably that we have the most interesting and spectacular flying demonstrations. this is the air show is taking place in russia outside moscow and naturally everybody is expecting to see some new russian aircraft appeared anything new this year then it will i prefer not to reveal the surprises we have prepared for of visitors but. you have to write some data for the first time will display the fifth generation of fighter jet pack thought. we take pride in is jihad as it's our mean achievement in the military aircraft manufacturing industry in the past three years but it is clear now the second project type is ready and we are happy to present the jet to the visitors creates a little bit of it so this is perhaps the most anticipated russian aircraft some of them are generally speaking you see airshow will be different from the previous

maps airshows because we'll have many heavy and super static aircraft on display. for example we expect to see an eighty three eighty airliner at our show them one of the things that we will for the first time you know we correct the air show will also displayed time out to twenty five marine aircraft in the heaviest aircraft in the world. and you only support heavy transportation the american c. five galaxy will also be displayed on the ground as well as a number of other aircraft which could model the mine not only by their technical solutions but also by their design with question so you've. already mentioned that the air show will boast a beautiful show for aerobatic teens beating it with. actually five years still are they going to demonstrate the fifth generation fighter jet you've mentioned or not yet but that doesn't go over this mystery meat you know there are

no aerobatic teams for fifteen aeration fighter jets as yet three due to the naturally we hope to see it in the future but currently unfortunately russian flood groups to pull it off one in the jets that have been tested and used for about ten fifteen or even twenty years at the border white v s u twenty seven one of the only as you thirteen and the make twenty nine. through they need a reliable jets for the kind of things they do yes. good for him pilots are going to be there. as well list here we won't be able to treat our visitors to an aerobatic show. of hands for a typical or it has been so popular with the russian public no one else. will have foreign pilots flying the us air fifteen eagle and the french are a father and the italians see twenty seven cargo plane ghazal we are some of the

same the latter is a unique cargo plane vastly forms aerobatics. apart from the show the planes the aerobatics max is also about business and contracts. planning to sign any contracts at this year's air show if you do not mind disclosing this information of course. yes there are some contracts that we would live to keep yourselves for now. we wanted to be a surprise to everyone but your speaking in general if we think of business part of the year sure is a really important it is an ancient world part of any exhibition weeks business activity to go up in the run out the maps as well as during the air show itself this case which has scheduled a lot of the meetings and rolling aircraft manufacturers and fashionables from related fields but there will be many business forums and conferences during the

max where a wide range of issues related to airplanes helicopters and insurance and so forth will be discussed and just what it contracts it was my opinion the most important deal among those i'm free to mention now is the expected contract between ninety aircraft corp and united engine corp because these are two russian companies that plan to sign and emollient on the purchase so if new p.v. fourteen minutes for the new m s twenty one aircraft it is an innovative and highly important project it is because it will provide the contracts for the engines that will be produced in twenty fourth season and twenty fourteen is play and installed on the planes that will be needed in the twenty sixteen and twenty seventeen but yet many parameters will become clear their characteristics their products and there is delivery terms this makes it much easier for the corporation to launch these products on the market but it comes out if you go through with this you know i have been following news from the recent air show in paris you come he's i may be

wrong but i get an impression that the business is they know it's in the united states and europe there are no lies it turned on the asian markets which you soon more than half of all flights worldwide departing from your landing in china that. oh is it true that the asian market is developing so fast and is so robust as to check all the aircraft. the factories the airlines and so forth. and as far as airlines are concerned my colleagues from the transportation ministry could give you more information on the sheer will you still actually knew or just you crude saw the world air traffic and some forecasts for the twenty twenty s and twenty thirty s. early indicate that the share of asia especially southeast asia and chinese grown. nearly increasing are actually skyrocketing so i do think there were two tendencies that are developing simultaneously but they are not directly related to each other

on the one hand the number of flights to and from e she is on the rise on the other hand what you said about the atmosphere at the paris air show will unfortunately i wasn't there but i think i know what you're talking about because new players are answering to the aircraft manufacturing market in their new projects and they couldn't end to the whole for eighty s and boeing it's the new players from canada brazil china japan and of course russia they are now reaching for those market segments that were traditionally the domain of the g. all pally in the choice each player has she has brawls and cones. he's chances for success and problems but they certainly pose a threat to those who used to dominate the market and look these things are not discussed today or shows a little the next to have a section dedicated to young people and their experience in aircraft technology

would you please tell us more about this exposition what will be there and just play in generally does the fact that you have such an exposition i mean there is no lack of young professionals in your industry. sort of and there's not sure of course it does. just max is a big event and we don't limit our program to business meetings and conferences it appears that that is also important it was to. instilled patrick has been our young people in the political term we have had many a section for a number of years now we have so far and here's a more. there is a section for college students and another one for children earlier was of a no fee just to approach the in the college student section and we offer an opportunity for all the universities related to our industry to display their projects. are very innovative technologies and so forth if you just. know it's only in the children's section we announced the winners of our

a yearlong contest would have the best projects are displayed and mr putin tradition of business of ilion and receives presence at so it's a kind of a tradition you know. and also last year we had a jump there and i think we will do it again this year the must do with the mood of the problems i'm going to try to get through to the idea is to bring together university graduates and potential employers i hope it works with you know for this students intrusion managed to produce something of real value for manufacturing i mean something apart from presents for mr putin in the question mohnish. let me answer this question he said. the truly does not matter what they say play at the dissent the point is that they should be creative. the main purpose of this section is to demonstrate the creative

potential we have in our college students. and it is really not that important whether their work will be used in the future as part of some serious research or protocol remain just an academic project say. their acts are all the is. a show. on this i'm going to read to our education industry the spotlight will be back shortly right after a break we'll continue this in. let's tell it so i'll go and say look. at least. to.

just say. six. weeks. it used to be an ideal place for a holiday wouldn't change the moments. if . the lives of the war are still visible. the public is not only relieved but also shaping the future seemingly.

welcome back to spotlight. on the show today. show. director. department. mistruths are another item on the agenda of the next two thousand and eleven airshow is a conference on the trends in prospects for aviation in russia. what are your expectations of this conference do you hope to get more subsidies from your government maybe. this conference will provide a platform for an in-depth discussion of the new government program for the every industry. has been working on this document for the past eighteen months we hope to

finalize our work in time for a max resent terry conclusions at this conference. and we hope that the comments help some constructive feedback will receive at this conference will help us to finalize the program it is a fundamental document for the aviation industry and that is up for the next fifteen years. which was private and was presented to the government this spring rate which we presented in spring was just a concept which outlined immunity as a program currently we are working on the final text of the program. one of the objectives of this program we want russia to regain its bottom on the world's top three nations in nearly industry it's mainly to revive regional and traffic. yes the primary objective involves several seconds your objectives so one of which is to revive local air traffic which was well developed in soviet times but with time regrettably decline and we need to recover in this segment. we're going to put i'm

going to try and fareed out some secrets all right. we know that there have been human. reports in the media saying russia is working on a super fast helicopter they will develop the speed of four hundred kilometers per hour is this helicopter ready and will you be showcasing it at the airshow i would actually refer you to mr starr here with this question as he's much better informed of all sorts of secrets while we do as organized as he's provided a venue where they came on the veil of a secret exactly that's what i mean. are you going to unveil actually i mean really russian helicopters have always been very popular are we going to see any breakthrough helicopter technologies this time. yes there will be some very interesting exhibits. i'd rather keep it secret for now instead invite all viewers to visit max and see it all for themselves the new things but it will be

a fascinating show in addition to airplanes there will be a helicopter session provided by about just as a lot of there will be new models and some interesting exhibits but i'll keep the secret for now but it will raise when i have a question for you read in one of your recent interviews you said it would lead to learn from brazil and follow the model they use to support their aircraft manufacturing industry or indeed brazil started from scratch in need of very good progress in just a few years i think they're manufacturing what five hundred planes a year so what is this president model and why have you picked it over say the saudis model which actually works well airplanes ranked among the best in the world this is true of course we're willing to incorporate the best of soviet practices but we think that the brazilian model is very interesting and especially efficient at the start up phase to start up and that's where we are now with the maturity of our projects we're starting off excuse me for interrupting i just want to ask if we know it started face that and presumably means nothing if what we had before is

actually survived and we have to build everything from scratch again fortunately some things have been preserved and it's probably not a start up but a follow. you know the look we talk about the industry on the whole you're right and i was talking about specific projects for instance there is the am i eight helicopter which has been fine for forty years now but still accounts for a major share of our sales in the sales of this helicopter have been grown year in year out it will fill in both in terms of numbers and in terms of revenues i'm not sure which we are eternally grateful to it's designers that you know but on the other hand there is the am a store new one plane that we have high hopes for it is currently at the design stage and we expect it to be ready by two thousand and fifteen and what you are talking here about the new aircraft that are only entering the market like a super jet or a n one forty eight and other airplanes and helicopters for these aircraft having a good financial pettish is of crucial importance the airlines no longer purchase aircraft alone they purchased a service a product that's why did products cost in a pool if they are of

a close to importance in this sense the brazil and system has been very helpful for us it has enabled us to ship the relations between the state in the industry in such a way that the government has taken it upon itself to finance expense of aviation projects as well as provide the lowest possible interest rates are fortunately crowd banks in russia still maintain high interest rates so we cannot say commercial loans with a terminal for ten to fifteen years and run profitable projects if we arrange government support of the industry quoting to the brazilian systems providing for the minimal interest rates is that your business plan can accommodate that would generally ensure the kind of competitive performance that we are aiming at it is that is what the brazilian system is all about things well tim's was a legal custodian there would be hood in there he has mentioned the superjet levy surely casing it this year there was a yes we will it's not going to be the first time it goes in this playwright what are you going to show any new features that you know that no there are no new features and old bulldozer because we demonstrated old immune features of the

previous match show you a million and i wanted to see this year's show will be out tenth and this year's moto is. max always a premiere for the premier there were two or was this a subject was the premiere last year. at this maks show as you has said it will unveil the fifth generation fighter jet but this doesn't mean that all of the aircraft will be brand new actually our shows also feature aircraft that were designed and constructed ten or twenty years ago it's earlier and what matters is that we present them as a product for the market is where digitally the designers and manufacturers look forward to meeting their prospective customers if you try to ensure customers that attend macs are not only foreigners are they yes there are both russians and foreigners so how much do you reach out to promote the superjet domestically because this is a big issue every time a plane crashes and i'm sorry to mention this but it just can't be ignored like this most recent crash of the t.v. one thirty four in petra zawacki everybody start seeing you can't fly these planes

any longer they're galley out the iranian planes but nobody buys them is that the case. well indeed this failure to market new aircraft is an issue for government policies to address if you prefer at this point russia's banking system project financing mechanisms are not efficient enough to meet the needs of consumers that is russian airlines we hope or jury was talking about it happens at the end of the day talking about snacks itself as it is an opportunity for a business man to meet and talk is really our business programs our flight program and even the static is a vision offer a lot of opportunities for face to face dialogue customers can come and take a close look at those aircraft touch them try them out and so on as to produce proof of this a project is in demand i would add that from the point of view of russia's domestic market the least we should do is to offer a new aircraft carrier alliance on financial terms that would allow them to replace

old aircraft was new once the live of the new aircraft should be marketed primarily in russia and if there was there a need for the domestic market with the da and one forty. it is designed to land on the turf airstrips such as those most airports in russia have especially in the north and in the forest region our primary goal is to promote russian made planes on the russian market is in a fury mention the am of one forty eight airplane i'm also a new model the am on fifty eight will be rolled out of the upcoming next show and this is another new model we have put this one he reports for repeated mention a new upcoming project in the twenty twenty jets because there is an intel it's about this project what kind of aircraft are we talking about is it really going to be a breakthrough. on one of our so you what is this project all about chip what is the breakthrough so what are the what's the what's at this point the twenty twenty chair is purely a concept project we can't even define it's the basic characteristics of warwick

you. don't even know whether it will fly horizontally or vertically yes so whether it will be a passenger or a cardboard chair it's one of the what is the thing you see twenty twenty chair is a craft that will help us some seek up ten percent of the global marketing budget which is what our strategy calls for things are you looking for a nice well yes we're looking for a product that would help us bring our share out to ten percent we're looking for two things on the one hand we're looking for a niche on the other hand we're reviewing our current. term in the area where we have a good chance of achieving a real breakthrough nobody's again attention to the market unless you have a breakthrough product so a combination of our marketing research and r. and d. efforts will eventually define what this twenty twenty chip look like. my final question is for both of you because you are both enthusiastic best to promote russia's aviation industry on

a global scale. today at least twenty years after the disintegration of the soviet union and the decline in collapse of the russian aircraft manufacturing industry. see here we see we're not really for a behind global industry leaders are we beginning to catch up with companies such as boeing and airbus they see near but let's see we have started this process which is a big step in itself. we have entered the race which is a goal that's right i would even say you we have jumped on to the last car leaving train but we are not the last standing on the platform so this is good it could have been much worse but i did say to the lawyers you can be building things instead of you know craft in the someone to write a budget we're getting new aircraft. we managed to retain some of our potential and as yuri said we are at the start obstacle for a follow up stage of what i see it's a start up and i do it's a process is underway and we hold that united aircraft corporation will decide sas

for within vinnie dr piously. yes we have a chance thank you thank you very much both of you for being with us and just a reminder that my guest today would have let him go but he's the director of gates national education space show and you ready to sack director in history department and ethics but out of all of us here if you want to have your sales part i to have someone who aren't you a plane crashed into the next time please drop me a line at how do not add any dots are here and that's because they interact only back with more firsthand comments on what's going on in and outside russia and so let's stay on our team to take a. look.

this is a cable from the u.s. embassy in colombo to talk about here it apparent june seventh incident of extrajudicial executions the military ordered to press that on that they'd killed nine guerrillas and found the best edition by instruction on could you know and they're going to be strongly suggest however that the nine were executed by the army and then dressed in military fatigues. explain how you know this kind of phenomenon where bodies are dressed up as guerrillas and presented as killed in action and this and this idea that you need to produce bodies actually encouraged paramilitary collaboration this is a cia document central intelligence agency they knew about these activities they knew they were happening they knew about links to paramilitary groups and yet usaid continued to flow.
