 It’s been a while since I flew in the «vomit» of the Soviet aviation industry – YAK-40K. The level of comfort for passengers (i.e. people) this piece of technology (my tongue does not even want to call it a modern airplane) can be only compared to another masterpiece of the Soviet period – apartments during Khrushchev. Or am I spoiled by Boeings and Airbus? And what’s interesting is that service reflected the airplane. Even though on other flights of the same company, but using different planes, service is much higher. Being defines consciousness? I also did not expect that together with the President of the Russian Federation so many different people would arrive at Khanty-Mansiysk. A lot of people! And very different! In nutshell, I really had no time to pay attention to biathlon. Although I was secretly hoping to take a sneak peek of the international competition and the infamous track for at least 30 minutes. But problem with hotels. I couldn’t even accommodate two colleagues from a famous foreign venture fund who flew in – there was not one available spot. Had to drive at night 120 km into the taiga to a hotel. Exotic for foreigners! :) Undefined reaction by the business sphere has caused the President’s decision about appointing a project manager in Skolkovo. There is something to think about after this day… Konstantin Y. Smolentsev
