This month a second Superjet, MSN 95003, is scheduled to join the flight-test programme.

November is over. Has the second Superjet flown?

As long as it doesnt crash you wont hear anything...

At 3 november they put SN 95006 on the stress test machine (which is the one on the photo)

Main problem is that they are planning to move the whole SSJ factory from Kosmonolsk-na-Amure (east siberia) to Voronezh, reducing the delivery costs. This of corse gives a big delay in the production (imagine packing the whole 737NG assembly line in containers and move it to NYC)

Russian planes: IL-76 (all standard length ones), Tu-154 and Il-62, Tu-134 and An-24RV&&&&AI flightplans and repaints can be found here

Interesting plane, i wonder if it will sell on the western market, after old soviet era planes were banned from certain airfields. I can imagine this plane being a competition for the EMB-190 and alike, which are replacing the fokkers.

Boeing had plans to use their network for marketing it... as they are still missing a regiojet in their lineup

Already, not still.

Relevant specifications:
Sukhoi Superjet 100-95 LR
wingspan 27,8 m
cabin width 323 cm, height 212 cm
single class seat count 98
MTOW 45,9 t
range 4480 km

Boeing 717-200 HGW
wingspan 28,5 m
cabin width 314 cm, height 205 cm
single class seat count 122
MTOW 54,9 t
range 3815 km

Embraer 190 AR
wingspan 28,7 m
cabin width 274 cm, height 200 cm
single class seat count 106
MTOW 51,8 t
range 4260 km

Fokker 100
wingspan 28,1 m
cabin width 310 cm, height 200 cm
single class seat count 122
MTOW 43,4 t
range 3110 km.

I am pretty sure I have errors there, some things are computed with different assumption. Does anyone have access to data to check the above and present the comparison under strictly comparable assumptions?

How different, in service, are Fokker 100 and Boeing 717 from each other?
