Aircraft production in Irkutsk

History of IAPA on philatelic material

Almost sixty years ago, in 1934, an aircraft-building plant was constructed in the old town of Irkutsk. This town was chosen on the basis of many factors, among which are the good transport services allowing to supply the Plant with materials, pro-fabricated and vendor items obtained from co-operators in many regions of the country. The Trans-Siberian main line, powerful water transport artery of the Angara river, airfield already available at that time, and the wide network of automobile roads promoted rapid development of the Plant and its fitting out with technical equipment. Favourable climate with a large number of sunny days, peculiarity of the surroundings of the lake Baikal, romance of aviation - all this created conditions for continual replenishment of the Plant's personnel. Organized in Irkutsk an aircraft-building faculty at the Polytechnical Institute, an aircraft-building technical school, a Qualification Extending Institute, and a branch of the Scientific and Research Institute of Aeronautical Enginnering (NIAT) supply the Plant with skilled specialists and allow to maintain high technical level. The introduction of new technologies, automated systems for the design of constructions and technological processes, mathematical methods of planning and control - all this made : possible for the Plant to build modern aircraft and successfully deliver them to many countries all over the world. Nowadays the Plant is one of the enterprises meeting the world-level requirements for aircraft production. The Irkutsk Aircraft Production Association disposes of a large massif of dwelling houses with green squares, recreation zones. sport, culture and household institutions, shops, which adds to stability of production.
