For 75-year history of the plant there was mastered the repair of more than 29 types of aircrafts and power plants. The first aircrafts, which were repaired there in 1939 were Po-2.

MAOP is located in the Balashikha District of the Moscow Region, near the Fedurnovo village. Our tour was held by a plant director, Pavel Nikolaevich Nenastiev. Today we will speak about one interesting machine...

In the second half of 1960, the company entered "a helicopter era" that began with the Mi-1, Mi-4 was repaired from 1974 to 1982.

The pace of work was high - up to 30 cars were repaired there on a monthly basis.

One of the helicopters came here for the renovation a few decades ago, and still stays in the backyard.
