Sukhoi Civil Aircraft Company (SCAC) and Indonesian air carrier Sky Aviation signed in Ulianovsk (Russia) Act of Delivery & Acceptance for the first Sukhoi Superjet 100 on completion of technical acceptance procedure.

Flight of the aircraft with MSN 95022 from Ulianovsk Delivery Centre to its base airport in Indonesia is planned for January 2013. The same month the airline is going to put SSJ100 into commercial operation.

The document, signed by the parties, states that the aircraft is technically sound and fully meets the performance criteria. The Act of Delivery & Acceptance also confirms that the SSJ100 is transferred to the carrier with a full set of required operational and maintenance documentation and flight kit. The aircraft is ready to start commercial operation on Sky Aviation route network.

Earlier Indonesian aviation authorities validated the Type Certificate for the Sukhoi Superjet 100 aircraft. This validation confirms compliance of the SSJ100 to the certification requirements of the Indonesian Aviation Authority, allowing its export to Indonesia and operation by Indonesian airlines without restrictions.

Sky Aviation was established in 2010. It is based in Halim Perdanakusuma International Airport (Jakarta, Indonesia). The airline operates scheduled and charter flights in Indonesia.
