If you use Freeview television, a new Russian news channel has been added on channel 85. Their evening news service is currently featuring a MAKS slot at about 6.30pm.
Very interesting new Russian aircraft and helicopters are featured, plus factory visits etc. The only downside is an English presenter. You’ll see what I mean if you tune in. On the other hand, some of the female presenters are very presentable…

Russia Today/RT…also available on Sky Channel 512. This channel often carries documentaries on different aspects of Russian/Soviet aviation. They recently screened a very good programme on the “Caspian Sea Monster” Ekranoplane, and others on the lives and works of both Ilyushin and Tupolev.
