According to sources close to the airfield service of Rossiya, on March 6, when landing TU 214 at Vnukovo, the brake pads of one of the side landing gear broke, which almost led to the plane rolling out of the airfield. There were passengers on board the government plane at the time. According to the interlocutor, most likely they were FSO and presidential protocol officers flying from a business trip.
Before this, problems with the mechanization of the wing arose on another side of the SLO, which was transporting persons from the escort of the President of the Russian Federation to Krasnodar. 
Such aircraft accidents, according to our sources, have become not at all uncommon. In August 2023, a Tu 214 plane made an emergency landing in Chita due to a landing gear failure. Then they disguised everything as a bird hitting an airliner engine. Despite the fact that the executive office of the President of Russia has a huge amount of money to buy spare parts, and the number of hours of government Tu and Ilov is not so large.
The planes of high-ranking Russian officials, as it turns out, are not insured against accidents with the planes they are currently flying. After one such incident, a chassis failure in 2011, then-President Medvedev purchased French Falcons for his needs and to this day uses mainly “foreign cars.”
