Abstract

The paper is devoted to the issues of cargo air transportation market development in Russia, and exploration of ramp cargo airplane An124-100 operation in the market. At present, this plane carries out the major part of transportation of heavy oversize cargo. The plane demonstrates a unique combination of capabilities, as it is one and only air transport for oversize cargo alternative overseas transportation. The plain allows also increase safety and reduce damage probability of cargo, compared to overseas transportation. It is capable of delivering cargo to far-out regions, where there are no auto-road and railways, horizontal loading and unloading capacity through nose and tail ramps, as well as lowering the aircraft floor and unloading without specialized external cargo-handling equipment.

To forecast economic indices of the plane of a specified type simulation model run by Vensim program. The conclusion is drawn that with growth of heavy oversize cargo air transportation demand, the necessity for organizing in Russia the serial production of aircraft equal to An-124-100 increases. Analysis of cargo transportation world market modern tendencies revealed apparent significant potential of the sector of economy in question and its direct interrelation with such factors as the degree of technological development of the country, the State participation in the trading processes and general level of economic development. The branch of group air transportations should be considered as one of aircraft industry strategic orientations totally and enjoy the State support.
