Avionul cu care China vrea să concureze Boeing și Airbus a efectuat prima sa cursă internațională
China's C919 passenger aircraft has completed its first international commercial flight, marking a significant step in its competition with Boeing and Airbus. Operated by Air China, the flight from Beijing to Ulaanbaatar is set to run daily. Despite this milestone, the C919 relies on foreign components and lacks certification from major aviation authorities, limiting its appeal in global markets. COMAC aims to strengthen its position in the aviation industry, but production challenges and dependency on foreign aircraft persist. Analysts suggest that COMAC's slow development pace may hinder its competitiveness against established manufacturers.
