Airbus Cessna Why are Russian aircraft not popular although they are cheap ?
for example, small aircraft like Russian Technoavia's SM92 Finist that competes with Cessna Caravan is 1/5th of the cost of Cessna 208 and is also more beautiful *at least for me*. But it carries 6 Pax instead of 10 Pax in Cessna and still not popular. And also, Airbus and Boeing just shadow above Tupolev and Antonov.. why?
this is based on alot of different factors, and rarely is the intial cost the a big factor.
1. Parts and maintence. Most aircraft come with dealer support, and there are plenty of maintence facilties that are trained to repair/inspect cessna's/boeing/ airbus/etc.. try finding one that is certified to do a repair on a Tuplev, or trying to get parts, as they would more than likey have to come out of russia or an eastern europe country.
2. Training of crew- a russian aircraft would not have the same training programs that a boeing /airbus have in the us and europe.
3. Noise.. most russian aircraft do not meet the stage III requirements for US Airport ops..

How can I tell the difference between an Airbus A380 and a Cessna 152?
ooh that is certainly a very challenging question.
The A380 is a supersonic medium sized 17 engine turboprop (8 on each wing and one on the nose). It first started flying in 1897, but has had many modifications since and has been succeeded by the A380-400. The main differences are that it is now a monowing, where as when it first flew it was a bi-wing aircraft. The A380 cruises quite comfortably at 7000kts at an altitude of 300cm, however if there is a strong headwind it's speed could be increased by up to 12 500kts. At this speed it took just 27hours to cross the Atlantic, which was impressive in those days, but is lagging behind a bit now. The A380 is operated by a relatively modest flight crew arsenal of 7 pilots. One each for pitch, roll and yaw. One for wave navigation (navigation using wind measurements taken from the direction of waves and multiplied by the cloud cover). Two crew members were responsible for the singing to keep the others awake, since radio was only invented in 1994. Since then those 2 have become obsolete. And the last pilot, usually the most junior of all, is there to monitor the wings. If one falls off he is responsible to pull out the Emergency checklist and comply with the Standard Operating Procedures. A wing falling off is actually more common than you think, but doesn't constitute much of a problem. Most passengers don't even notice. Infact it's more of a hazard to persons and property on the ground. In a well documented case, Austrian lady Ann Chovy sued American United Ailrines for suffering a broken thumb after a 800 ton wing from an A380 dropped on top of her. Needless to say she was very very unlucky and my thoughts are with her and her family.
As for the Cessna 152. It's a fairly modern aircraft and not much is known about it. It's actually quite unique and often people refer to it as the 'half aircraft.' The reason for this apt name is due to its revolutionary design. It was initially designed as a Heavy short range airliner with four triple spool High By-pass turboshaft engines, ie very similar to what you'd find in the average mini cooper except on a larger scale. So the chief designer from Swedenerland, Gotta Brightidea came up with an ingenius idea which got her 12 nominations and 8 wins for the Nobel Peace prize. Basically she came up with the concept of halving everything on the aircraft. So she cut off two engines and took off one wing and one horizontal stabilizer. Then she quite literally sawed through the vertical stabilizer to halve its size. This she explained was not too much of a problem because all that was in the tail was just a fuel tank. And in any case it wasn't an auxiliary tank. (As you know auxiliary is synonym for Main Fuel Tanks). And the best thing about this was that with the reduced weight she could fit 7 times more passengers in the Cessna 152, to bring the total up to 1781 people and 3 children. Wilbur Wright was recently quoted as saying 'I can't believe we didn't come up with that back in 1956, when we first flew in the Wright Flier.' Another benefit was that due to the less control surface areas less pilots are required, so only 23 are used per flight. Much lower than the 24 in previous Cessnas like the vintage 208 Caravan.
Some people have confused the Cessna 152 for the Boeing 747-500, but this is mainly due to a lack of experience. otherwise can't really give you more facts about the Cessna 152. Still waiting for the first flight, which should give us more to talk about.
