The Russian aviation authority Rosaviazija has extended the approved operating life of Yakovlev Superjet 100 variants RRJ‑95B‑100 and RRJ‑95LR‑100 from 15 to 20 years, raising the approved flight hours from 25,000 to 40,000 and the approved flight cycles from 15,000 to 20,000.
Yakovlev says the new limits represent about 40 percent of the originally intended design life, and there are currently 154 Superjet 100 aircraft in service in Russia.
