Aircraft Production Association of Kazan. One aircraft is to be
supplied in 2005, four aircraft in 2006 and the remaining five by
late 2007. Every aircraft will be leased for a period of fifteen
years since being put to commercial use.

Great news for this under-estiated aircraft. If this same machine was built say by Embraer it would sell alot. The Russian tag isint helping it at all.
