OAK is supposed to have finalized the specifications for Tu-204SM.
What are they like? How does the range and fuel burn of the existing Tu-204 compare against Boeing 757-200, and how shall the new Tu-204SM compare with B757?

Nice to see that the Russian airliner industry is not yet dead. I can’t help but wonder about the marketing skills within the likes of Tupolev, Ilyushin etc. In the Soviet era there was the Aviaexport organisation, who I’m sure many members will remember, that handled all aspects of the USSR’s sales to external customers, and printed some brilliant sales material for us Soviet airliner ‘nuts’ to collect, their posters were second to none!
