The Supernova Airlines will be ready for flights in April 2022
Supernova Airlines, owned by Nova Poshta expects to receive an operator certificate in April 2022 reported by Avianews.
The presence of this document will allow the new air carrier to start flying.
At the start, the Supernova Airlines fleet will have two aircraft, and this is the minimum required for certification by Ukrainian rules. A preliminary agreement for the first aircraft delivery has already been reached, and the company is continuing negotiations for a second airliner.
The postal operator does not name the type of aircraft that Supernova Airlines will use. However, the Swiss edition for aviation specialists ch-aviation.com, citing its sources, indicates that this is a cargo version of a narrow-body Boeing 757-200 aircraft. This airliner can fly long distances without stopovers for refueling.
The initial route network will include destinations in the Middle East, including cities in Europe.
Nova Poshta registered a subsidiary airline on October 1, 2021, and contributed UAH 70 million to the authorized capital. It will report to Nova Poshta Global, responsible for international shipping.
Yaroslav Krasnozhon became the CEO of Supernova Airlines. Prior to that, he headed the airline with Turkish investments Atlasjet Ukraine.
The new air carrier will serve only international flights and will not operate flights in Ukraine
Boryspil and Lviv will become the base airports of Supernova Airlines. They were chosen because the central marshaling yards of the Nova Poshta Global division are located there.
With the help of its airline, the postal operator wants to maintain the speed of delivery while the number of parcels grows. Now the postal operator uses the services of third-party airlines.
On December 21, Novaya Pochta Global chartered an An-124 Ruslan plane from Antonov Airlines to deliver 135,000 parcels from Chinese stores to Kyiv, which was delayed in December for various reasons.

KRAЇNA is a new electric luxury shooting break coupe
Kraїna 225 inspired by AN-225 aka MRIYA, that means “DREAM” in Ukrainian, Kyiv architecture, Ukrainian space industry. The concept model created by Max Shkinder, Senior Designer at McLaren Automotive.
Max Shkinder is a Ukrainian artist who in 15 years has travelled from his native Energodar to London. Shkinder is a graduate of the Kyiv Boychuk Academy of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design, and graduated in industrial design. After studying, he went to Italy, where he received a grant to study at the IED Institute of Design in Turin and became a master in automotive design.
Max the designer has a successful career under his belt: he spent several years in automotive design at Volkswagen AG in the Czech Republic before moving to London in 2014, where he became a senior car exterior designer at McLaren.
The artist within me is a consequence of my work as an automotive designer, as confusing as that sounds. I paint cars during the day and paint in oils at night. The car design profession requires discipline; I have to consider the opinions of dozens of other people. To balance and balance it all, I have a natural need to create – without being bound by deadlines, budgets, or the opinions of marketers. Art gives me the opportunity to be alone with my ideas.

The ideology behind KRAINA 225 was to get together as a group of like-minded people in attempt of creating Ukrainian EV vehicle with a competitive design seeking inspiration from local industrial legacies such as Antonov aircrafts and State Space Agency of Ukraine in Dnipro.
It’s a non-commercial, purely conceptual project aiming to explore and experiment.
Just like the source of our inspiration the mighty AN-225 aka Mriya that means “Dream” an object of admiration over last few decades for aspiring kids and adults around the World we were aiming to create something close to its significance and uniqueness firstly in its visual impact.

“House. Memories” to appear at Antarctica
Art installation “House. Memories” will appear at the Vernadsky Reserch Base in 2022. It is designed by the architects of the Balbek Bureau, and executed by the research and design bureau “Workshop of Miracles” and “Silpo”.
An old decommissioned fuel tank is located on the territory of the station, and it is almost the first thing that visitors see and falls on most tourist photos. For several years now, the National Antarctic Research Center (NACC) has wanted to rethink the aesthetics of this industrial building: to make the harsh landscape more pleasant for polar explorers and present Ukraine to the international community.
The Silpo chain has offered the scientists joy to the guests when they miss their home the most. The balbek bureau and the Workshop of Miracles were involved in the project.
“House. Memories” is a sketch made of metal, which seems to draw the outlines of a Ukrainian house around a fuel tank. For our researchers, it is a living memory of home. For tourists – an opportunity to get acquainted with Ukraine through our native, but not banal, visual image. You can walk around the house and see exciting things about Ukraine – because most Antarctic tourists will learn about our country during a visit to the Vernadksy Research Base. Therefore, boards with facts about Ukraine and the station, as well as symbolic objects such as a lump of black soil or a fragment of an embroidered shirt will be placed on the walls of the tank.
“We proposed to create an installation inspired by a typical Ukrainian house – one that is associated with warmth, comfort, and vacation in my grandmother. We analysed buildings in different areas and compiled a composite image of a Ukrainian house – with a slate roof, chimney, and distinctive windows. It was decided to recreate this image with the help of a thin, detailed frame around the tank. According to our plan, the installation should resemble a pencil sketch: someone remembers his house and sketches from memory.” – Slava Balbek
“When we first saw the idea, we were thrilled. This is the augmented reality of the house they long for so much, and at the same time rejoice in the memories of it, – shares Eugene Dyky, director of the National Academy of Sciences. – We are grateful to the team for taking into account all our wishes. After all, the art installation should be beautiful in the most unfavorable conditions: frosts down to -30 C, strong winds, meters of snowdrifts, and thousands of highly inquisitive representatives of the Antarctic fauna. In addition, it should be pretty easy to install with minimal equipment and personnel and be easy to maintain.
Architects and engineers are designing the installation “House. Memories” given the harsh weather, limited resources at the station, and the long icebreaker road to Antarctica.
“We are working to make the construction easy to transport and install,” said Mitya Zinoviev, head of the Miracle Workshop. – Details will be marked and arranged in sections, so the house will be easy to reproduce according to instructions. Metal pipes made of stainless steel will be folded into a light but strong frame. We will provide additional resistance to bad weather by cables with which we will strengthen a design. To make sure that the art is stable, we are protesting it in Ukraine together with the polar explorers.”
To date, design work has been completed, and assembly has begun. After a test installation with the participation of polar explorers in Ukraine, the installation will be dismantled again. All materials will be uploaded to the Noosphere icebreaker to Antarctica in January 2022. Participants of the 27th Ukrainian Antarctic Expedition at the station will build it independently.
