Let me tell you a story - aviation technology is fairly close to space technology, right?

Um, no. In space[...]

LOL, thank you, you've proven yourself to be just another forum "troll" with little to none knowledge on the subject - and because of this I'll save time I'd otherwise waste e.g. translating a 10 page article to back up my words.

If you still can't get it: I gave you examples of how Soviets neglected safety rules in the aviation branch. You said that space technology requires even tighter safety policies because of hostile environment. So if those guys failed at the "easy skill level" (aviation), then how more dangerous are their spacecraft? ("the harder skill level")
And do try to understand that you won't be hiring solely Russian technology, which in your eyes is almost flawless. You will get the whole system that comes with it (the remains of their space program: infrastructure, policies, equipment & tech etc.) - and that includes people, too. Re-read your own words about the human error...

Alright, enough time wasted...
