1. Insurance. I hope they have it.
2. Spare parts (okay, technically three words). The Russians wont be able to get them, so the planes will be grounded soon for maintenance.

(13,883 posts)6. " the planes will be grounded soon for maintenance." Just like the Iranian F-14 Tomcats.
No parts, no fly. Then again these parts will be available on the black market for a pretty penny.
Then again, where are they gonna fly to?? Just commuter planes within russia?
