Six Interjet SSJ100s resume flights following inspections
Russia’s Sukhoi Civil Aircraft (SCA) has completed repairs on 6 Sukhoi Superjet 100s (SSJ100s) grounded by Mexican airline Interjet, the only SSJ100 operator in the Americas. The aircraft resumed operations in the first week in January, the manufacturer said. “The troubleshooting procedure was agreed with the [Rosaviatsia] and carried out under the control of the Mexican aviation authorities [DGAC],” SCA added. The manufacturer sent 22 technicians to Mexico for the warranty maintenance work at the end of last year. It is expected all grounded aircraft will be back in service by the middle of January. Interjet grounded half its 22 SSJ100 fleet at the end of Dec 2016, after SCA identified a minor fault in the tail stabiliser of one SSJ100 during inspections. <br/>
