Laughable.>>>>>>>>

What exactly is laughable? Soviet aircraft are often flown by careless carriers. That is a reason behing most crashes.

Yes, for example, Aeroflot. If Russian-built commercial aircraft were so superior, then I assure you that Western airlines would buy them. They don't. (The one exception I know about is a regional Italian airline that flies a few Su-100s.)
