Perm Airlines (PAL) has introduced a single PS-90-powered Tupolev Tu-204-100 (RA-64017) which is being operated by Vnukovo Airlines, primarily on charters from Moscow to Tenerife, Canary Islands. It is understood that PAL's Tu-204 is leased from the engine maker Aviadvigatel/Perm Motors, which acquired the aircraft from the manufacturer Aviastar in exchange for PS-90 engines (Flight International, 18-31 December ,1996).
