The French Trade Commission UBIFRANCE,
responsible for export promotion, has paid a visit to Volga-Dnepr Airlines in
Ulyanovsk to gain a better understanding of its unique air logistics
capabilities.
The delegation included
members of UBIFRANCE, a French
government organisation that comes under the aegis of the Secretary of State in
charge of Foreign Trade, representatives of the French Embassy in Russia and
senior executives from French aerospace corporations that produce technology
systems, avionics, aircraft parts and paint materials for the aviation
industry.
The group was hosted by
members of Volga-Dnepr Airlines’ senior management team, who provided a
presentation on the airline and its range of transportation and logistics
services before inviting the airline’s guests to tour its high-tech Flight
Operations Center, which monitors Volga-Dnepr’s international operations on a 24/7/365
basis. The UBIFRANCE group also visited Volga-Dnepr’s Training Centre and its unique
An-124-100 flight simulator.
The tour was completed by a
visit to the airline’s Maintenance Department at Ulyanovsk-Vostochny Airport,
where technical staff shared their knowledge of the An-124, the world’s largest
series-produced transport aircraft, and highlighted its outstanding technical
characteristics and bespoke loading equipment used for heavy and outsize cargo
deliveries.
Both sides expressed their
hope to cooperate in the future.
