Premier orders analysis of SSJ100 use by Armavia
MOSCOW August 14
Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev has ordered the Industry and
Trade Ministry and the Foreign Ministry jointly with the United
Aircraft Corporation (UAC) to analyze the use of Sukhoi Superjet 100
(SSJ100) commercial jetliner by the Armenian airline Armavia by
September 15, says a protocol of the Novosibirsk conference on
regional air passenger traffic published by the governmental press
office on Tuesday.
Earlier reports said that Armavia, the first user of SSJ100, planned
to stop flying that jetliner and to repeal the contract on buying the
second jet.
A market source said Armavia statements derived from its complex
financial position and aimed to get a discount price.
Armavia was supplied with the first SSJ100 in April 2011.
SSJ100 is a regional 100-seat plane designed and manufactured by
Sukhoi Civil Aircraft with the assistance of Alenia Aermacchi. The
jet's flight range varies from 3,048 kilometers in the basic
modification to 4,578 kilometers. There are more than 170 orders for
the aircraft now.
