Russian flag carrier Aeroflot has just completed its first year of operations with the type. It is taking its ninth Superjet, serial number 95017, in June and will receive another five this year. In the first year its Superjet fleet achieved 3,710 flights and logged 6,865h, serving 27 airports. Sukhoi says two of the aircraft logged 249h and 240h respectively in May, while two others achieved 157 and 151 flights during August-September last year. Aeroflot has been able to utilise the type for 16h in one day, it adds.
Aeroflot Superjet fleet chief Yevgeny Voronin says an improvement in the efficiency of post-sales technical support for the type will increase utilisation of the fleet. By the end of May, the carrier had 45 trained Superjet crews, among them 48 pilots without any previous “glass-cockpit” experience. “On the whole we are satisfied with the results of the first year of commercial operations of our aircraft withAeroflot,” says Sukhoi Civil Aircraft chief Vladimir Prisyazhnyuk
