The flight at speeds up to 600 km/h lasted more than an hour. The stability and controllability of the aircraft in various configurations was checked, Rostec State Corporation reported.

The successful flight confirms the readiness of production chains for serial production: the first batch of 18 aircraft and new orders approved by the Russian Government are ahead. At the same time, the certification of the MS‑21‑310 continues: more than half of the certification flight program has already been completed. This will speed up the delivery of airliners to airlines.
