ArmInfo. Certification testing of the two Superjet-100 acquired by
Armavia will be over in December 2009, Yuri Mozgovoy, Sales Director,
Sukhoi Civil Aircrafts in Russia and CIS, told ArmInfo. He said these
aircrafts are serial.
Y. Mozgovoy said the jets will be supplied to Armavia only after
completion of certification testing. He said Armavia has a right to
acquire optional three aircrafts on the same terms as the first two
ones in compliance with the contract. He said the prices of Sukhoi
Superjets are comparatively more reasonable than those of similar
aircrafts of other companies. These aircrafts have low-consumption
engines and air mechanics. The two Superjet-100 acquired by Armavia
have 95 seats.
Earlier Mikhail Baghdasarov, President of Mika LimitedHolding, the
owner of Armavia air company, said one of the Superjets-100 will be
delivered to Armenia in December 2009, the other in January 2010. He
said one model of the aircraft successfully passed air training
in mountains in the town of Gyumri in September. Armavia signed an
agreement with VTB Bank in 2007 for financing of acquisition of two
SSJ- 100 in the amount of $55-60 million.
