Russian air show 2001 hints and tips
Some knowledge of the Russian language is useful as all the direction pointers and road signs are in Russian. Specialist agencies, such as MAKS' official authorised tourist operator Lanta-Tour Voyage are also recommended (see www.maks.ru, www.airshow.ru and www.lantatur.ru). Drivers should buy parking tickets (such as those offered in the "business tour" package) in advance, otherwise the car must be left outside the grounds of the aerodrome. On 14 August, high-level Russian officials will open the show and inspect exhibitions of the major participating companies. Atprevious shows the police and security forbade many of theparticipants and visitors to enterthe show site during this time.Arrive no later than 08:45 on that day or wait until 14:00. Most mobile telephones will work in Moscow and within the show site. Contract your local provider for details and dialling instructions.Source: Flight International
