China's first passenger passenger narrow-body aircraft, the 919, will be delivered to the customer by 2021, reports TASS Statement by the Deputy General Director and Chief Designer of China Commercial Corporation aviation (COMAC) Guanghui.



The design and testing of the aircraft to obtain a license will last about another three to four years. The first finished aircraft will be transferred to China Eastern Airlines by 2021,
said guanghui.

In February, the company announced that "the total order book for С919 increased to 815 aircraft, among the customers - 28 of Chinese and foreign companies."

The development of the C919 airliner corporation has been dealing with 2008 of the year. The first prototype was released in the 2015 year. In May, the 2017-th aircraft first flew into the Shanghai Pudong International Airport.

Currently, two samples are already undergoing flight tests for obtaining a license for commercial operation.

“The C919 can be produced in several versions with different numbers of seats (from 158 to 190). The average flight distance will be about 4075 km, the maximum - 5000 km. He can fly at altitudes up to 12,1 thousand meters, ”said the manufacturers.

According to them, at this stage, the aircraft is equipped with the “LEAP-1C propulsion system of CFM International, a joint venture of the American General Electric and the French Safran”. The same engines are on some aircraft Boeing and Airbus.

Earlier, COMAC announced plans in the future to equip C919 engines of its own production. According to experts, the liner will be on a par with Boeing 737 and A320.

The Chinese leadership hopes that C919 will help reduce the country's dependence on foreign manufacturers.

    This is all great, but what is there about Chinese except the fuselage? We, under MS, have at least done our own engine. Yes, and its own avionics. Just don’t tell me about plans. They are not able to create a modern competitive engine. Well, no way.

        And because they are blinding, the huge domestic market and the lack of complexes in terms of state protectionism will do their job. And about their engines, there will be no doubt that time will pass and the floor of the world will still buy them.

        And what to look at them? Terms are about the same as our MS-21. Also a series from 2019, the first flight last year. But again, the MS-21 will be very Russian. Not all of course, for foreign customers it will be with Amer’s engines, but for themselves there will be a high degree of localization. And this month a second plane is supposed to take off.

          there was such a writer Hemingway, he said the phrase: For many years, many Americans have touted Mussolini for making Italian trains go on schedule. It never occurred to them that a regular rail service in America was established without fascism.
          I led his statement to the fact that you do not think that there are methods that can reduce corruption even without executions. Of course it is longer, but more effective!

          p / [b] How often are they shot?
          And here the fun begins. According to Chinese law, the death penalty can be carried out immediately, and can be delayed for up to two years. As a rule, a delay is given for economic items. Moreover, if the offender did not commit any “intentional crimes” during this time and generally behaved approximately, the death penalty can be replaced by life imprisonment.
          So, not one of the high-ranking “tigers” convicted under the anti-corruption campaign of Xi Jinping was put up against the wall. Moreover, the most resonant “victims of the campaign”, members of the so-called “New Gang of Four,” Zhou Yongkang and Bo Xilai, received only life sentences without any hint of execution.
          On average, corrupt officials are imprisoned for 12-16 years. In other words, the idea that officials are being shot in batches in China is just a myth.

      We perfectly see what trend the relations between the USA and China are gaining. It will only get worse, the United States will be forced to drag back to its territory of production and technology. And if they only feel the competition from the Chinese, Boeing will immediately stop supplying their components and will force the French. On this, I'm afraid the Chinese plane will end.
      I am interested in something else, almost all chassis racks and other titanium products from the same USA are supplied by us. Do the Chinese buy the same from us?

Now, many major global automakers have a full production cycle of their branded cars in China. Ours, with all their wishes, will not be able to raise industry this way, because in the government there are only suckers, which only know how to suck oil and gas and sell.

      Well, I’m grieving you a little, the MS-21 has only one Honeywell HGT750 APU so far - exactly the same as the C919 by the way laughing . Aerosila is still asking for money, and then certification again (that is, not the fact that it will be planned for certification in Russia by 20 year).

      IntuVue RDR4000 3D radar - it’s not possible to replace the import at all, or rather, although it’s not possible to build it, but EASA will send 5-10 for years to certify. The lobbyists there hold the market tight.

      There is still a rampart of foreign komplektuhi. Thales calculators (same as on 320 Neo), an innovative control system is also American.

      If anything - even the most important feature of the project is Austrian:
      FACC AG (a composite giant that glues watermelons too) made a black wing for the MS-21. But with technology transfer. The series may already have its own material and its 100% production.

        According to PD-14, there is no information about problems, but certification is definitely ahead, and this is not a quick process. EASA planned to serve in 19, but most likely they will move to 20. This means that real deliveries of PD-14 will be impossible until 22-23 in the EASA jurisdiction (roughly speaking, any export, except perhaps Cuba, North Korea, Syria and Iran, but the latter has already bought up all the money with the Watermelons, and the remainder has been poured into 80 Boeings, which quite real freeze).

    We also need to understand that if our planes are even slightly better and cheaper than Boeings, Airbases and the Chinese adjacent to them, they simply will not be allowed to sell them on a global market on a global scale.
    What to do, what to do ?! Yes, first of all, do not rely on export, but focus on the domestic market, make air transportation more accessible (at least due to cheaper kerosene in the oil producing country).

      If the size of our domestic market would be large, look at the GDP figures, which are smaller than Germany. And besides, in order to sell planes abroad (preferably to rich countries because there is more demand), you need to have good relations with them. And under today's conditions, this is very problematic.
