COMAC jumbo jet and its global rivals

The C919 is mainly designed for the domestic and near-Asian markets and the primary objective is to achieve home market domination. This narrow body aircraft may perfectly meet such requirements.

It is a learning curve and, with home market domination and enough cash to burn on R&D, COMAC can already become a potential rival to international manufacturers. Keep in mind that China still keeps its domestic airspace closed because:

a. It prioritizes HSR development

b. It does not want a demand explosion by domestic airliners for foreign aircraft to meet the domestic passenger demand.

Once the C919 is ready, then, you will see domestic lines to expand and improve dramatically.

Alas, maybe not the best craft ever produced, but, better than just sitting idly and giving orders to foreign manufacturers.

This is the basic difference between China and the many others.

It's important to learn to develop commercial aircraft including all the parts to avoid this:
 
Well, if you want to say something, say it to my face will you? Say it out loud so others can understand. I just saw @FairAndUnbiased poked around mocking VN a few times today yet I never saw him/her act like that before so I am just asking, nicely and politely.

I'm not mocking Vietnam at all. I'm simply agreeing with NiceGuy, EastSea and all the other mature, rational Vietnamese posters of how amazingly rich, powerful and advanced Vietnam is.

Doesn't NiceGuy always say backwards, poor Chinese living in a polluted desert? I'm merely agreeing with him.

Dude, no one is dense enough to not realize your sacarsms.
 
no,no,no, I'm agreeing with NiceGuy though. If you don't think he's right, why don't you tell him that?
NiceGuy is an extreme nationalist. I don't wanna deal with him. I have exchanged words with him once and don't want to do that again. Let's just say we don't share ssame ideas on some matters.

I must remind you that our Korean counterparts in automobiles said that 100% Chinese made automobiles is not good quality, worse than 100% Korean made.
 
“I hate to disappoint Boeing but theCommunist Chinese will be manufacturing most of those planes. U.S. Fortune 500aerospace space companies now have manufacturing plants in China and with thatgoes the technology.
I retired from a division of a Fortune 500 aerospace company and two yearsbefore I retired corporate created a JV with a Communist Chinese company andbuilt a campus in China to manufacture nacelles, landing gear, struts andpretty much all of corporate's product lines. I asked my big boss why we aredoing it and his answer was " we never learn; we created a JV with aEuropean company and that company became our biggest competitor inEurope".
The same will happen in Communist China and too bad our policy decision makersin Washington, DC are oblivious.
U.S. Fortune 500 companies such as GE, HP, Apple, Caterpillar, UTC,Lockheed-Martin, Google, and others like Garmin, etc. now have manufacturingplants in China and with that goes the technology and manufacturing know-how.

Give credits to Chinese hard work. We learn the basics and we can take it to the next step tech transfer or not.
Give credit to CPC.
