China’s Rivale von Boeing und Airbus liefert ersten heimischen Passagierjet

By Jordi Bou

December 9, 2022 - China Eastern Airlines ist der erste Empfänger der Schmalrumpf Comac C919, ein Meilenstein für Chinas Ambitionen als Konkurrenz von Airbus und Boeing.

While the C919 delivery is significant, the plane faces an uphill battle to challenge the European and American manufacturing duopoly. Airbus received one of its biggest orders ever from China over summer and Boeing planes are widely used in the country.

While a Chinese aircraft programme, the C919 relies heavily on Western technology, including for its engines – CFM International Leap-1Cs – as well as cockpit control and interior systems from Collins Aerospace.
