Company Sukhoy Civil Aircrafts will present a large-scale model of Russia's new Superjet SSJ 100 in Russia's second industrial exhibition EXPO-RUSSIA 2009 Armenia.

YEREVAN, October 20. / ARKA /. Company Sukhoy Civil Aircrafts will present a large-scale model of Russia's new Superjet SSJ 100 in Russia's second industrial exhibition EXPO-RUSSIA 2009 Armenia.

"One of the most interesting sections will be devoted to Russian-Armenian cooperation in the field of transport. In particular, the world famous company Sukhoy will present a large-scale model of Russia's new Superjet SSJ 100,” director of Russia's second industrial exhibition EXPO-RUSSIA 2009 Armenia Svetlana Zabelina told ARKA NEWS AGENCY.

The appearance of this exhibit in Armenia is connected with the fact that its prototype has recently successfully completed a program of certification flight tests, test takeoffs, landing characteristics and evaluations within the geographical conditions of the Armenian highlands.

The tests took place in the area of the airport Shirak, which has a special feature which is that every part of the airport is virtually surrounded by mountains, so the takeoff and the landing approach is possible only on the south side.
These tests demonstrated the ability of the aircraft to make safe takeoffs and landings with the possibility of overshooting in difficult circumstances.

Two Sukhoi Civil Aircrafts, which have 95 seats, will be put up by the Armenian national carrier Armavia Company.
Russia's second industrial exhibition EXPO-RUSSIA ARMENIA will be held in Yerevan on October 29-31.

The aim of the exhibition is to promote the economic, scientific-technical and cultural cooperation between Russia and Armenia, strengthen the ties between the two countries, develop joint businesses, trade and investment relations. -0- --
