Private investor Roman Abramovich – Boeing 767-300ER, number P4-MES
The Boeing on which Roman Abramovich travels can often be seen in photographs of spotters (those who like to photograph airplanes) in different parts of the world: Nice, Salzburg, Saint-Martin, Tel Aviv. The rich geography is explained by the capabilities of the Boeing 767-300ER, registered on the island of Aruba. The ER prefix in the modification of this 11-year-old vessel means an increased flight range, allowing non-stop flights of up to 11,000 kilometers.
According to Boeing, such an airliner can accommodate up to 245 passengers, its length is 54.9 meters, its wingspan is 47.6 meters, and its catalog price is $191.5 million. Among spotters, the plane received the nickname “Bandit” for the characteristic black stripe near the cockpit , reminiscent of dark glasses.

A very unusual means of transportation, if only for the reason that it is a helicopter with an interesting coloring and with a lucky registration number ending in three sevens. The Mi-171 plows the sky in the interests of Alfa-Aero LLC, part of Alfa-Bank; it probably flies this helicopter to its recreation center in the Tver region. According to the manufacturer, the maximum flight range of such a vessel is 600-800 kilometers, depending on the configuration, cruising speed is 230 kilometers per hour, and the catalog price is $10 million.
Chairman of the Board of Directors of AFK Sistema Vladimir Evtushenkov – Boeing 737-7FY, number P4-AFK
“An airplane is a vital necessity, naturally, [I have one], and it’s stupid to give up something that makes life and work easier,” the entrepreneur said in an interview with Vedomosti at the end of 2013. AFK Sistema operates several aircraft, and Yevtushenkov has most likely been on board an eight-year-old Boeing 737-7FY with a VIP cabin configuration. The belonging of this airliner to AFK Sistema is indicated not only by its registration (P4-AFK), but also by the company logo printed on the tail of the airliner.
Owner of the Onexim group Mikhail Prokhorov – Airbus A319, number M-RBUS
Last spring, the Main Military Prosecutor's Office of Russia was looking into the circumstances of the order of the Russian Ministry of Defense aircraft, which flew to the Seychelles: it turned out that the plane was chartered by the Onexim Group company for 740,000 rubles. The media wrote that Mikhail Prokhorov took models and musicians to the islands: the group “Time Machine” and singers Potap and Nastya Kamensky.
Another billionaire's vehicle is also known to be rented for a longer period: an Airbus A319, almost six years old, registered with Global Jet Luxembourg. This is a large airliner with a dynamic livery and the call sign Silver Arrows. According to Airbus specifications, the length of such an aircraft is 33.8 meters, the wingspan is 35.8 meters, it can accommodate up to 156 passengers, and the catalog price is $88.6 million. However, the interior of the aircraft is most likely specially redesigned to suit the client’s needs.
Private investor Dmitry Rybolovlev – Airbus A319-133, number M-KATE
An Airbus A319 with M-KATE registration attracted the attention of journalists, primarily British ones, several years ago. Reporters tried to figure out whether the plane with such a telling registration had anything to do with Kate Middleton, the wife of the Duke of Cambridge, Prince William. It turned out that the handsome airliner is connected with Russian businessman Dmitry Rybolovlev: the media suggested that the A319 received such registration in honor of Rybolovlev’s daughter, Katerina. The plane belonged to Sophar Property Holding BVI, which Uralkali acquired while still under the control of Rybolovlev. After the sale of Uralkali, the entrepreneur bought its assets from Sophar.
Chairman of the Board of Directors of Russian Standard Bank Rustam Tariko - Boeing 737-7BC, number VP-BRT

Wingspan - 34.3 meters, length - 33.6 meters, maximum flight range - up to 6000 kilometers. The price of a similar type, according to the catalog, is $78.3 million. The BC prefix in the model indicates that a special division of Boeing Business Jet, which creates airliners for corporate and private clients, took part in the work on the aircraft.
Member of the Board of Directors of OJSC Novatek Gennady Timchenko – Gulfstream G650, number OH-GVV
The man, one of the ten richest people in Russia, was known in business aviation not only as a passenger, but also as a very active player. This was until the spring of 2014, when the Volga Group structure sold a stake in the private air carrier Airfix Aviation Oy to an unnamed investor. As follows from the registry records, the company carried out maintenance of the Gulfstream G650 with registration OH-GVV, on which Gennady Timchenko most likely preferred to travel (the plane is capable of making a non-stop flight over a distance of 12,964 kilometers and carrying up to 18 passengers).
Last August, the businessman complained in an interview with ITAR-TASS that, due to sanctions, Gulfstream could not sell him new aircraft or service those already purchased. Thus, he is forced to request charter flights whenever he needs to fly somewhere.
Chairman of the Board of Directors of Tinkoff Credit Systems Bank Oleg Tinkov – Dassault Falcon 900LX, number M-TINK
Businessman Oleg Tinkov prefers to travel on board a Falcon 900LX with M-TINK registration, as follows from photos of his social media account. A recognizable detail is the coat of arms on the tail of the plane, the same one that clients of Tinkoff Bank see on cards and official documents. According to the manufacturer, an aircraft of this type has a wingspan of 21.38 meters, can carry up to 19 passengers, and can make non-stop flights over a distance of up to 8,890 kilometers, for example, fly from Moscow to Tokyo. The cost of the aircraft on the market is from $20 million to $32 million, depending on the condition, modification and configuration.
Founder and main shareholder of USM Holdings Alisher Usmanov – Airbus A340-300, number M-IABU

The liner is called Bourkhan (it is believed that in honor of the father of Alisher Usmanov), and its registration can be deciphered as “I, Alisher Burchanovich Usmanov”.
The new Gulfstream G650, produced in 2014 with M-INSK registration, roams the skies in the interests of the entrepreneur. The registration, which echoes the name of the city of Minsk, is not accidental: Dmitry Mazepin was born there and spent part of his life. However, despite the reference to the Belarusian capital, the stripes on the sides of the plane are in the colors of the Russian flag.
Suleiman Kerimov - Boeing 737-800, VP-BBZ
Suleiman Kerimov had many aircraft - from Boeing to Gulfstream, which the businessman has repeatedly told Forbes about.

Like all other Kerimov aircraft, this aircraft is registered and maintained by Gama Aviation and has a memorable coloring.

) says that “according to his qualitative characteristics” he should have long been among the dollar billionaires. In 2005, 37-year-old Tinkov sold his beer business for $250 million and invested $100 million in creating a new bank. Justice, according to Tinkov, triumphed after the IPO of the Tinkoff Credit Systems bank: investors valued it at $3.2 billion, and Tinkov’s fortune grew to $1.8 billion. Tinkov’s remaining share in TKS Bank after the IPO (51%) was worth $1. 6 billion at the placement price (although it has since lost more than $200 million in value). In addition, he sold some shares during the offering and received approximately $200 million in cash for them.
Tinkov sold the bank with a capital multiplier of six, unprecedented in Russia. Sberbank is now trading with a multiplier of 1.2, this is the maximum, there are banks with a capitalization less than capital. Tinkov’s acquaintance does not see anything strange in such a high assessment of the bank.
“They’re just comparing them to the wrong people. Why compare with Sberbank or Bank Vozrozhdenie?
According to Forbes' interlocutor, it is more appropriate to compare TKS Bank, for example, with the payment company Qiwi
On the Internet, its capitalization is about $2 billion.
Immediately after the start of secondary trading in the bank’s shares, Tinkov ordered Cristal champagne (13,000 rubles per bottle) for all office employees and says that he is the only employer in the country who treats clerks to such a drink. They work in an open-plan room, the walls are painted with characters from Russian fairy tales. The walls of Tinkov’s office are covered with gold leaf. Tinkov wanted a modern office, “like Google’s,” but with Russian motifs. The designer completed the order, building “royal chambers” for the owner. All this was housed in an office center owned by Evgeny Kaspersky (134th place on the Forbes list, net worth: $800 million). Tinkov once jokingly told him in the dining room that he would rip the gold leaf off the walls of his office if the owner of the center breaks the contract lease with TCS Bank.
The newly minted billionaire, according to him, lives modestly and spends only $800,000 a year - this is “cosmic money” that allows him not to deny himself anything.
He lives in a rented house in Moscow. In the summer, Tinkov drives a Rolls Royce, and in the winter, a Range Rover. On business trips and vacations, he prefers regular hotel rooms to suites. True, now, according to the billionaire, expenses will increase by about $3 million - due to the cost of maintaining the Falcon aircraft purchased before the IPO.
The essence of TKS Bank's business is highly profitable microcredit: more than half of the portfolio consists of loans of no more than 50,000 rubles, loans less than 10,000 rubles make up 17% of the portfolio. But TKS was sold to investors as an Internet company, since the bank distributes credit cards via the Internet and mail. Investors were attracted by the bank's huge return on equity - 48.7% for the first six months of this year (for the first six months of 2012 - 66.6%). Sberbank's return on capital is 20.8%, VTB's is 6.9%.
The high profitability also inspires Tinkov himself - he is not yet going to reduce his share below the controlling one. On the contrary, he intends to prove that an IPO is only an intermediate stage in business development. What is the end goal? “I want to be as cool as [the owner of the Magnit chain of stores] Sergei Galitsky,” Tinkov answers. “He is the best entrepreneur in Russia, if I come second, I can die.” Galitsky occupies .
You can celebrate the business achievements of Oleg Tinkov or Sergei Galitsky by voting for entrepreneurs as part of a special Forbes project. You can influence the voting process until December 19, when the January issue of Forbes will be published with the voting results according to the editors.

If you combine the private jets of Russian billionaires into one company, you will get a large carrier, second in number of planes after Aeroflot, with a fleet of more than 250 aircraft. In total, Russians own up to 500 business jets, and most of them are registered abroad. The sanctions against Russian businessmen adopted by the US Treasury on April 6, 2018 ruined the lives of billionaires and launched a wave of sales.5. Airbus A320

The plane and its unique livery with gold patterns and a bird on the tail were inherited by the Russian billionaire from the previous owner - the Saudi Saad Group of bankrupt billionaire Maan al-Sanea. The plane was relocated from Saudi Arabia to Yekaterinburg Koltsovo airport. The plane can often be seen in European cities - Verona, Vienna and Paris. Also, this Airbus often visits cities where the Yekaterinburg hockey club Avtomobilist, sponsored by UMMC (Andrey Kozitsyn is a co-owner of the company), holds its games. Sometimes the hockey team itself flies for them.
