    Superjet 100 Performed Its First Commercial Flight in Armavia Fleet


    Moscow. OREANDA-NEWS . May 25, 2011. Sukhoi Superjet 100 performed its
    first commercial flight in Armavia fleet. The aircraft was put into
    operation in an extremely short period of time in two days after the
    official delivery to the launch customer on April, 19 2011. The route
    of the first passenger flight with 96 passengers aboard was
    Yerevan-Moscow(Sheremetyevo)- Yerevan .

    During the past month the aircraft has made 66 flights in total. All
    flights were performed at 35000 39000ft altitude, at the speed of
    0.78- 0.8 M . Smooth and regular aircraft operation is the result of
    the perfect job done by highly professional Armavia team supported by
    the manufacturer of the aircraft.

    SSJ100 performs flights to Sheremetyevo, Domodedovo, Vnukovo, Odessa,
    Donetsk, Simferopol, Larnaka (Greece), Aleppo (Syria), Venice (Italy),
    Teheran (Iran), Rome (Italy), Tel-Aviv (Israel), Beirut (Lebanon),
    Lion (France).

    The aircraft spent more than 168 hours in flight, took more than 2885
    passengers to total distance of 85800 km . No failure having impact on
    the airworthiness was registered during the whole period of operation.

    SSJ100 perfectly fits Armavia fleet, containing mostly CRJ200, A319
    and A320 aircraft. Owing to high economic efficiency and good
    operational capabilities we can schedule the aircraft both to regional
    and to short-haul routes - basing on current passenger load per each
    flight. stressed the owner of Armavia Mikhail Bagdasarov.

    It is a great aircraft and it allows intensive operation already at
    entry into service. Both crew and passengers receive only positive
    impressions.

    The aircraft is easy and comfortable to control, the cockpit is quiet
    and allows effortless communication between pilots. The cabin is
    spacious and comfortable too, the passengers do not have any
    difficulties while boarding or placing their baggage. Wide aisles
    provide the opportunity to serve food and beverages with maximum
    comfort even during short flights. The passengers can easily pass the
    flight attendant by while he is serving. adds SSJ100 Crew Chief Sergey
    Kharatyan.
