Moscow : Tests performed at TsAGI (Central Aerohydrodynamics Institute in Zhukovksy, Moscow)at the end of October 2011 confirmed the static strength of the SSJ100 fuselage in accordance with aviation rules CS-25 (Certification Specifications \u2013 Large Airplanes) of EASA (European Aviation Safety Agency).
\nIn the frame of additional certification static tests, the cabin of the SSJ100 prototype MSN 95002 was loaded with extra internal pressure. The fuselage withstood the ultimate pressure load which nearly doubled the operational one. Tests confirmed the SSJ100 expected strenght performance. Namely, the aircraft proved to meet the additional requirements of EASA in terms of static strength.
\n\u201cThe results granted to timely prepare the final report on the EASA certification program. The European certification will allow not only to start the commercial operations of the SSJ100 by western airlines, but also to boost the SSJ100 sales worldwide\u201d, – said Sukhoi Civil Aircraft first Vice-president for design and certification Igor Vinogradov.
\n\u201cThese tests represent a great milestone, both in terms of the SSJ100 aircraft development, and new methods of static strength testing. For these specific tests a new dedicated experimental facility was established in TsAGI and the SSJ100 fuselage was equipped with special explosive protection system\u201d, – said TsAGI Deputy Director General Mikhail Zichenkov.
\nThe static tests on the SSJ100 fuselage accomplished at TsAGI Institute represent a major step ahead in the achievement of EASA Certification, expected by the end of 2011.
\nSukhoi Superjet 100 (SSJ100) is a 100 seat regional jet designed, developed and built by Sukhoi Civil Aircraft Company (SCAC), in partnership with Alenia Aeronautica, a Finmeccanica Company. On May 19th 2008 SSJ100 successfully accomplished its first flight. The Sukhoi Superjet 100 cruises at a Maximum Operating Speed of Mach 0.81 and 40,000 feet. It takes off from a 1,731 meters runway in the basic range and 2,052 meters in the long range. The operating range for the basic version is 3,048 km and 4,578 km for the long range version. In February 2011, the SSJ100 obtained the Type Certificate by the Russian Certification Authority IAC AR. The EASA certification is expected to follow in 2011. On April 19th 2011 first production SSJ100 was delivered to Armavia airlines (Armenia). There are currently three SSJ100s in service with Armavia and Aeroflot.

\nThe Company\u2019s shareholders are the Sukhoi Holding owing 75% – 1 share and the Italian Alenia Aeronautica, a Finmeccanica Company, holding 25% + 1 share since April 7, 2009. Sukhoi Civil Aircraft was founded in 2000 to develop new regional aircraft projects. Headquartered in Moscow, the Company enjoys several production branches seated in the cities of Komsomolsk-on-Amur, Novosibirsk and Voronezh. Today the company employs over 2,000 people.\u00a0Sukhoi Superjet 100 \u2013 a new family of regional jets \u2013 is the Company\u2019s major project.
\nTsAGI<\/span><\/em>
\nThe Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute named after prof. N.E. Zhukovsky was founded in 1918. Nowadays TsAGI is the major state research center of aerospace industry within the national economics of the Russian Federation. The key challenges of fundamental and applied character in aero- and hydro acoustics, aeroacoustics, flight dynamics structural strength and durability have been solved in TsAGI. The institute has at its disposal the unique experimental facilities that meet the strictest international requirements. TsAGI carries out the state expertise of all the aircrafts that are under development in Russian design bureaus and makes a final decision on the first flight possibility and safety. TsAGI contributes into generating the state programs of aeronautical engineering progress as well as into creation of airworthiness standards and state regulatory documentation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
