The SpaceJet family of aircraft is designed to meet regional market demand for jet aircraft. Hisakazu Mizutani, president of Mitsubishi Aircraft Corporation, said the Mitsubishi SpaceJet family of aircraft will redefine regional air transport.
SpaceJet M90 is expected to enter commercial service alongside All Nippon Airways, somewhere in the middle of the year 2020. The SpaceJet M100 has just been launched and will take some time to be certified.
SpaceJet aircraft will be certified by the Japan Civil Aviation Office (JCAB), but also by the United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Certainly, the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) will also have a say in the new Mitsubishi aircraft.
