“It is our pleasure to partner with JSC «Sukhoi Civil Aircraft Company». They will totally support ADRIA Airways´ development strategy. During the past two years we were analyzing the SSJ100 type and came to the conclusion that all the technical and operational characteristics of this aircraft would suit best for our strategic goals» – said Holger Kowarsch.
