Projet d’avion de ligne d’une capacité de 168-190 sièges
It will be the largest commercial airliner ever designed and built in China. Its first flight is expected to take place in 2014, with deliveries scheduled for 2016.[4] The C919 forms part of China's long-term goal to break Boeing and Airbus's duopoly, and will compete against the Boeing 737 Next Generation and Airbus A320 family.[5]
On September 8, 2009, during the Asian Aerospace 2009, Comac unveiled a scale-model of the C919, stating that the engine supplier will be selected by the end of 2009. [7] Construction of the nose section of the aircraft commenced on 2 September, 2009.[8]
Le Comac C919 est un projet d'avion de ligne du constructeur chinois Comac d'une capacité de 168-190 sièges.
Ce sera le plus gros avion commercial jamais conçu et construit par la Chine. Son premier vol devrait avoir lieu en 2014, avec des livraisons prévues pour 2016. Il sera alors en concurrence avec Boeing pour le 737 et Airbus pour l'A320. Il pourra emporter entre 168 et 190 personnes selon les versions. La conception et l'assemblage de l'avion se feront à Shanghai. Les moteurs vont d'abord provenir de l'industrie étrangère, mais la Chine envisage de produire ses propres réacteurs. Le 8 septembre 2009, au cours de l'Asian Aerospace 2009, Comac a dévoilé un modèle réduit du C919, indiquant que les fournisseurs des moteurs seront sélectionnés d'ici la fin de l'année 2009; CFM International, une coentreprise de Safran et General Electric est finalement retenu le 16 décembre 2009.

As of October 2006, XAC has received over 90 MA60 orders. The factory had delivered 23 MA60s by the end of 2006, and expects to deliver an additional 165 units by the end of 2016.[4]
