China confirmed that it is ready to certify Russian-produced Sukhoi SuperJet 100 liner, ITAR-TASS reports with reference to president of United Aircraft Corporation (UAC), Mikhail Pogosyan.

“In late October Civil Aviation Administration of China confirmed that it is ready to validate the type certificate of SuperJet 100 in PRC,” Pogosyan said at Airshow China-2014.
