Jan 15, 2010 (newstodate): Aeroflot has now phased out the last remaining TU-154M aircraft, ending a long period of service with the carrier.
Aeroflot first deployed its TU-154M in 1972, and was since widely used in a large number of versions and configurations on the carrier's international route network with capacity to carry up to 131 passengers on flights up to 5,000 km.
A total of 1,014 TU-154 aircraft have been built, and the airport is actually still in limited production as the aircraft may still be used till 1020.
