ExelTech Aerospace has signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) to finalise membership of the newly formed SuperJet International (SJI) authorised service centre network.

SJI has worked with ExelTech to participate in its heavy maintenance and modifications MRO network programme for the Sukhoi Superjet 100 aircraft family. Giovanni Simonetti, SVP customer services of SuperJet International, commented that SSJ100 customers will enter service with a quality airframe maintenance services network in place, with well-recognised MRO providers strategically located according to market needs that have a strong understanding of the regional aircraft services market.
