/TASS/. Sukhoi Civil Aircraft, producer of Sukhoi Superjet-100 planes, has not
confirmed media reports that the Irish airline CityJet has sent all aircraft
back.
"The report that
the CityJet airline has returned SSJ-100 planes to their owner is inconsistent
with the reality. Currently, the CityJet airline is revising its business
model, in this context Sukhoi Civil Aircraft and CityJet are actively
cooperating to solve this issue regarding the SSJ-100," the company’s
