Tupolev Tu-154M for MSFS98


About Aircraft._____________________________________________________________________________
Tupolev's Tu-154 trijet remains the standard medium range airliner within many
states of the former Soviet Union and is still use in China, but for cargo purposes only
(The last five Tu-154 were removed from their passenger transportation service in March 2001)
and to a lesser extent in eastern Europe.
The Tu-154 first flew on October 4 1968. The first production example was delivered
to Aeroflot in early 1971, although regular commercial service did not begin until
February 1972.
Three Kuznetsov powered variants of the Tu-154 were built,
the initial Tu-154, the improved Tu-154A with more powerful engines and a higher
max takeoff weight, and the Tu-154B with a further increased max takeoff weight.
Tu-154S is a freighter version of the Tu-154B.

Current production is of the Tu-154M, which first flew in 1982.
The major change introduced on the M was the far more economical, quieter and reliable
Soloviev (now Aviadvigatel) turbofans. Low rate production continues.
Meanwhile the proposed Tu-154M2 with two PS90A turbofans remains unbuilt
