Domodedovo Airport, about 40km south of Moscow, is the largest airport in Russia that is still in private ownership, for now at least.

One such aircraft has been sitting on the ground at Toronto Pearson International Airport since February 2022 when Russia began its full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
