SUPERJET PASSES NOISE TEST

The Sukhoi Superjet 100 has successfully passed a noise testing programme. Under supervision of AR IAC and EASA, the SSJ 100 has successfully passed noise testing program performed as a part of the overall certification campaign. At the Cuneo-Levaldigi airport in Italy the aircraft made 8 certification flights. The preliminary results show that the aircraft noise levels show full compliance with ICAO CAEPIV requirements.

The same aircraft is now undergoing HIRF testing. HIRF certification is required to demonstrate that the aircraft electric and electronic equipments are not influenced by external electromagnetic fields like those produced by a TV or radio station or by a radar.

“Sukhoi Superjet 100 is the first aircraft in Russia that has compliance with international noise standards proven in flight under supervision of Russian and European certification authorities. It’s a real milestone of the SSJ 100 Program which confirms good perspective for the aircraft worldwide sales”, said Igor Vinogradov, SCAC’s SVP on Certification, commenting the finalization of the noise testing program.
