Three people act as the formal beneficiaries of “Russair” through LLC “Breeze” (ООО «Бриз»): Olga Narovskaya, Ekaterina Godzelich, and Alexander Samosyuk. All of them are also connected to assets controlled by Putin’s friends, family, and “wallets” (nominal owners, such as Roldugin).

Narovskaya, according to The Insider, receives her salary from LLC Investment Solutions (ООО «Инвестиционные решения»), which is owned by Putin’s former classmates Nikolai Egorov and Ilgam Ragimov. Another place of employment for Narovskaya is Binom (АО «Бином») — which turned out to be the formal owner of Putin’s palace in Gelendzhik.

Samosyuk is the CEO of Investment Solutions, as well as a part-time employee of LLC Akcept, run by Putin’s nephew Shelomov. A third front beneficiary of the airline, Godzelich, is also listed as an employee of Akcept.

“Russair” is not subject to sanctions, and it continues to receive spare parts for the Western-made Falcon luxury private jet — even as Western countries continue to delay the delivery of long-promised F-16 Fighting Falcon aircraft to Ukraine. In 2023 and 2024, according to customs information available to The Insider, Russair imported into Russia a transceiver, o-rings and gaskets, a tether jacket, Dzus fasteners, ground wire, backup power supplies, airplane tires, fire extinguishers, crossbeams, spring washers, nuts, gas stacker, helium cylinders, smoke hoods, brackets, propellers, an audio headset, oxygen masks for pilots, as well as multiple other goods for the Falcon private jet.

The manufacturers of these parts — Dassault, SAE, EADS, Honeywell, Military Standards, National Aerospace Standards, AmSafe, Michelin Air Tires, L’Hotellier, Essex, HellermannTyton, Pratt & Whitney, Telex Communications, Harvard industries, General Electric, Intertechnique, B/E Aerospace, Camcar LLC, ESSEX, Fastener Technology, Kell-Strom, Liebherr, NAV-AIDS, PL Porter, Saft — are all Western, hailing from the United States, France, Canada, and the UK.
