In 1991 young test-pilot Azat Khakim, working for flight test unit of “Sokol” experimental design bureau, starts up a small enterprise “Polyot”. Crew and maintenance staff of this entity later becomes key personnel of the air-company. In the beginning the first and the only aircraft in operation was Yakovlev Yak-40.


From 1994 till 2000 the air-company comprising engineering & maintenance base (later – Tulpar Technic Ltd.) and cabin interior division (later – Tulpar Interior Group Ltd.) operated Yakovlev Yak-42 in CIS, Middle East, Singapore, Papua New Guinea and Australia. The average flying time of an aircraft was up to 300FH per month.


Between 1994 and 2013 the air-company intensively operates Mi-8 helicopters for gas pipeline patrolling and crop dusting. In 2012-2013 the air-company operates regular services from Moscow Vnukovo (VKO) to Russian northern regions (employing Yakovlev Yak-42 in cooperation with Utair).

In addition to flight operation, air-company maintenance base comes into being and gains experience in different climatic and material conditions. This background has helped to formulate the most important approach: all the obligations shall be performed in time under any conditions at highest standards. In 2010 air-company maintenance facility was transformed to MRO “Tulpar Technic”. In 2012 Tulpar Technic became the first in Russia & CIS Bombardier Aircraft/Authorized Service Facility for commercial and business jets. Today Tulpar Technic is an independent aircraft and component maintenance provider; Service Facility for Bombardier and Sukhoi Civil Aircraft as well as Rockwell Collins official dealer.
