MAKS' 93

From MAKS history

 

Another show was organized the following year, with this event assuming the MAKS name and identity. A total of 178 Russian and 82 Western companies took part inMAKS-93, which had two major venues — the Expocenter in downtown Moscow's Krasnaya Presnya, and at the Grornov flight test center in the city of Zhukovsky. The number of professional and public visitors increased to 430,000. After MAKS-93, it became clear the show needed to be centralized at a single location, rather than dividing the event between two widely separated venues. The matter was settled by agovernment decree that designated the Gromov Flight Research Institute as the shows permanent site. In addition. it was determined that MAKS exhibitions would be held biennially on odd-numbered years.
