How do we list that? Is SPT considered as a "make"? |

In fact SPT is the russian acronym for 'self-propelled passenger stairs' (Самоходный Пассажирский Трап). I don't think that it has a 'make', but a factory designation. They were designed and built on Kharkov Aviation Plant (Харьковского авиационного завода) on USSR, more precisely in Ukraine. СПТ (SPT in cyrillic) was and is a model produced on this factory. Now it has the name Kharkov State Aircraft Manufacturing Company (KSAMC) and the models SPT-114 and SPT-154 are continuing to be produced but in a KSAMC subdivision, on TORA Plant. This one on the pictures is an old model. The SPT-104. I think it was introduced on mid-50's, very early 60's decade. The next model, '-114', appeared almost at the same time when also appeared the Tupolev Tu-114. This one was longer than the previous model to reach the high Tu-114 door. Than next appeared the '-154'. This one was introduced as a modernization of the '-104'. I think it was built on the same period, when the Tu-154 was introduced on 'Aeroflot' fleet (late 60's, early 70's). Well, today of course the '-114' and '-154' manufactured on TORA factory were modernized and have a slightly design differences. Here are the websites: http://www.ksamc.com/ http://www.tora.ksamc.com/ And link: http://www.tora.ksamc.com/trap.html We can also find many photos of SPT-104, 114, and 154 on airliners.net. |

I would rather consider the factory as a make then, like what is often done for Russian vehicle, no? (like GAZ etc.) |

If so we can list it as KhAZ. On KSAMC website they use KhAZ acronym to refer the old factory (where these old vehicles were built). KhAZ - Kharkovskogo Aviatsionnogo Zavoda (Kharkov Aviation Plant) |

Thanks! I've seen lots of times these passenger stairs in old pictures from Czechoslovakia airports, but unfortunately I don't know the manufacturer nor the model. I've been searching for it but I can not find informations about it.  |
