"Международный авиационно-космический салон (МАКС) (International Aviation 
and Space Salon, MAKS) is an international aerospace exhibition held biennially 
on odd years. The objective of the MAKS air show is to demonstrate leading 
technologies and to open up the Russian aerospace industry to the international 
market. The exhibition organizers are the Federal Agency for Industry (until 
2009), the Moscow Government and Rostec and the 
overall organizer is "ОАО (Открытое акционерное общество) 'Авиасалон'" (English: 
OJSC (Open Joint Stock Company) "Aviasalon"), which was established on February 
14, 1992.
The first show was dubbed "МосАэроШоу' 92" (short for Москва 
АэроШоу) (English: Mosaeroshow-92, short for Moscow Aeroshow) was held in 1992 
and since 1993, the air show was renamed as MAKS.
It traces its origins 
to a series of diverse exhibitions such as "День Воздушного Флота Союза ССР 
(день авиации)" (English: USSR Air Fleet Day (Aviation Day)), later the "День 
Воздушного Флота России" (English: Russian Air Fleet Day) and the "День 
Вое́нно-возду́шных сил" (English: Air Force Day), currently officially labeled 
as "День Воздушно-космических сил Российской Федерации" (English: Day of the 
Aerospace Forces of the Russian Federation)
