Tu-204-300 ETOPS-120 Certified | Historic 2015 Test Footage and Documentary

On March 28, 2015, the Tu-204-300 aircraft (RA-64026) successfully completed certification tests in Ulyanovsk, confirming its compliance with ETOPS-120 standards. This milestone allows the Tu-204-300 to operate routes up to 120 minutes from an alternate airfield—even with one engine failure—opening the door for transatlantic flights. This major achievement not only enhances the operational flexibility of the Tu-204 family but also paves the way for future ETOPS-120 certification of the Tu-214.
