OH PLEASE 
I flew LAX-SVO-LHR, and DEL-SVO-NRT on SU in 2009.
Excellent new A330s at the time. Food was superb, the FAs hot. The SVO-LHR flight was not classic $hitty european pseudo business but real business class. Fantastic service and AVOD all around
I connected to a Delta flight NRT-LAX, which after the SU flights was like riding in a broken down chevy
Only problem on SU was that when I asked for a vodka on ice, I got a cup full of vodka with two icecubes floating in it.

Having flown SU via LAX SVO DEL I can say their aircraft was perfectly fine, service was superb, meals were as nice as any other international carrier, and the aircraft (767) was no different. The business class seat was comparable to AF or LH. No complaints at all, and some of the female FA's were quite visually appealing.

5.3cpm with the 75% conversion. Too much time for so few miles.

You guys really ought to give Aeroflot a try before trashing it.
I have flown Aeroflot three times and had three tremendous flights.
Aeroflot is my favorite member of SkyTeam...

I flew Aeroflot a few days ago between SVO and LED and found the experience to be pleasant and the flight attendants more professional than you find on a typical short-haul flight within the US.
