Sep 16, 2015 (newstodate): Russia is keeping a secret: before the end of this year, the first contract with a western company for Superjet 100 aircraft will be signed!
According to Russian press, an MoU was signed at the recent MAKS exhibition whereby the state corporation Vnesheconombank and Ilyushin Finance Co. will be financing the deliveries of Sukhoi SuperJet 100 aircraft to the European market.
The question is: which Western airline will become the first operator of the Superjet 100?
While the Russian media are still tight-lipped on this, readers of newstodate are better informed: the new carrier in Greenland, Greenland Express will take delivery of two Superjet 100 aircraft in 2016, and another batch of three aircraft in 2017-18, with the leasing contracts soon to be inked.
