Sukhoi Civil Aircraft Company (SCAC) and Adria Airways have signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) for 15 SSJ100 aircraft. Delivery will start at the beginning of 2019 under a long-term lease arrangement. In addition, both Parties signed a Memorandum of Understanding upon establishing an SSJ100 Maintenance and Repair Organization (MRO) at Ljubljana Airport (Slovenia).
The JSC “Sukhoi Civil Aircraft Company” President Alexander Rubtsov stated: “We realize that the SSJ100 after-sales support at the entry to the European market should be organized profoundly and professionally. Together with Adria Airways we will create a joint maintenance and repair organization for the SSJ100 at the Ljubljana Airport. That service platform will secure the operational reliability of SSJ100 aircraft in Europe.”
