First delivery due into Dublin within the next couple of weeks. IAA well behind on publishing their registry updates so I don't know the reg as yet.
Teaser photo from Superjet:

Poor resolution but Superjet removed the Tweet soon after so I had to rely on a screenshot found on airliners.net!
Seems to be K, N, W or X as the middle-letter
By a process of elimination:
EI-FKA used to be on an Aer Lingus F50
EI-FNA is registered to the latest Stobart AT72
EI-FXA is on an ASL AT72
EI-FWA doesn't seem to have been issued
So the latter?

Possibly KA, from looking at it. Could the F50 have been re-issued?
-
A registration won't be reused so EI-FWA looks to be correct.
-
The Sukoi's will be in the EI-WXA range.

Oh is that what that is. Couldn't get any info on him other than a callsign.
Looks like he might come close enough for a snap.

Stood out squinting at the sky like an eejit but couldn't see anything in the haze
Same here. Not even a trail to follow.

Just read that Cityjet won't be running the Superjets on scheduled services until 2018! Will be pimping for charter business until then.

They are not certified for London City yet

Also note from the logs that Cityjet's first CRJ9, EI-EPH, arrived in Dublin on the 17th. For the SAS contract ( the airline, that is ) with eight firm and six on option.
Should have been Shorts FJX-90s in the alternative timeline...
-
Yes, but reg is EI-FPH. Think this is the first to route through Dublin. Did not stop long as it left the same day.

In and out of Dublin on Sunday on its first visit was CRJ9 EI-FPA, another addition to the Cityjet fleet flying for SAS.
It was actually delivered in March but went directly via Keflavik to Helsinki without touching Irish soil.

Pat likes his Superjets, and plans on converting more options to firm orders:
