Sino Swearingen has transferred the second of five SJ30-2 static test units to its structural test facility in San Antonio, Texas, in preparation for certification testing. The first SJ30-2 made its inaugural flight last November, and a further two flying aircraft and a ground test article will join the programme soon. Sino Swearingen has chalked up 175 orders for the seven-seat SJ30-2, which is lined up for certification and first deliveries next year.
