The CIS Interstate Aviation Committee issued the type certificate on 27 December for the Pratt & Whitney Canada PW127H-powered version of the Ilyushin Il-114 twin turboprop. The 64-seater variant, dubbed the Il-114-100, started flight tests in January last year. It is produced by the Tashkent-based TAPO Chkalov plant in Uzbekistan, and so far only the country's flag carrier, Khavo Yullari, plans to acquire the aircraft. APO is pitching the aircraft at CIS and foreign operators.
