Rusline's Fleet - Newcomers

Rusline's Fleet
The best airliners for the best passangers
Some words about our plans and new airplanes.

Brand new aircrafts of the Boeing Co. are expected to arrive to our main field in Moscow - Sheremetyevo soon. Last week we have signed contract with this aerospace giant for 3 Boeing 777-300 long range airliners. We need them to make alive all Transatlantic routes and some Asian-destination routes in our timetable. When arrive, airliners have to pass all nessesary tecknic and register testings and after that they'll be put into their routes.
Boeing 777-300 is better airliner then its brother Boeing 777-200IGW, which is used by our VA since October, 1997. And 2 of three aircrafts which will be bought, will serve Moscow - New-York and Moscow-Chicago routes instead of B777-200IGW, which are used there now. ( Boeing 777-300 Range: 10,460 km, Speed: 0.84 Mach, Seating:from 368 to 394 pass. in 3-class configuration to 550 pass. in tourist charter configuration).
RusLine also have purchased 1 McDonnel Douglas MD - 11 aircraft and waiting for its arrival. This aircraft will be used on
South America destinations.
(MD-11 Range: 12700 km, Speed: 945kmh, Seating: 250-410 passengers).

We also expected all other airliners, that we have ordered last year, but something wrong with their delivery. They are: 6 Boeing 737-400, 10 Iilushin - 96m and 16 Tupolev -204-100.
