Slovenia has never been a Soviet Republic. Check your history.


Thanks for the correction, Chris, my bad!

Life in the former Yugoslavia wasn't all that different from life in
Soviet-era Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria. At least that's
my impression from visiting/travelling through those countries during
1973-1991.

Dealing with border police and banks was much the same in all of them, so
I'd expect aircraft construction and regulation to have been pretty much
in line with Russian practise before 1991, with only gradual changes
until they joined the EU and came under EASA.
