HOP! for AirFrance Sukhoi Superjet


HOP! for AirFrance Sukhoi Superjet

Since this might be a thing soon, decided to throw one together.



    If that's what the thing will look like let's hope they don't bother :P

    are they allowed to use superjets i mean its russian

    The Superjet is certified in Europe so I don't see why not. The only reason why Russian jets are vastly unpopular outside Russia is because of low efficiency and poor after-sales service.

    But the Superjet fixes that! ^_^

     

    also, nicely done Agre, as usual.

    Yeah, I think one of the reason AF decided to lease a couple was that one of the major partners in its design was Snecma, a French company :P

     

    Also important to note, they are wet leasing them from Cityjet, so AF crew won't even be flying them.

    so can a american airline use them too

    Well Interjet flies SSJs to the US, so I don't see why not

    ok

    When it comes to the US and Russian planes, it all boils down to political pressure. Although the SSJ has western parts, US still sees it as a Russian plane.

    True. you can't deny the efficiency of the SSJ. And sales prove that. It had more sales than the CSeries, MRJ, E2 and ARJ. The only thing ahead of it now is the CRJ and the classic E-jets.
