Recently, China has once again become the focus of attention of the outside world. The biggest reason is naturally because the domestic large passenger aircraft C919, which China has built for several years, has ushered in an important moment. According to previous media reports, China C919 has obtained the airworthiness certificate issued by the Civil Aviation Administration of China and will start a test flight.

This news is indeed worth celebrating for China, and it can even be regarded as "happiness is the best". Faced with the major progress of the C919, the Boeing and Airbus , which are competitors of the passenger plane, have also rarely sent blessings. In the eyes of the outside world, it is really quite patterned. So according to the current status of C919, the passenger aircraft already has 800 orders. When will it be delivered? Or is it still far from the official commercial use of C919?

First of all, after obtaining the evidence, the test flight work must be carried out. During this period, problems will be discovered continuously. After solving the problem, the corresponding subjects need to be tested again, and they will not be commercially available until all work is completed. In this regard, relevant experts said that after obtaining the airworthiness certificate, the delivery work will be further launched and it is expected to be delivered within a few months.

It is worth noting that C919 has received more than 800 orders in total. Although it includes many confirmed orders and intended orders, 800 should not be a problem. Among them, China Eastern Airlines and COMAC once signed a purchase contract. According to this situation, EMEA is expected to become the world's first airline to operate a C919 large passenger plane.

initially plans to introduce five aircraft, and will then conduct commercial flights based on Shanghai. At that time, we will have the opportunity to take our own domestic large passenger plane. Of course, my country spent several years developing the C919 not only for commercial use in China, but more importantly, it plans to compete with Boeing and Airbus in the international civil aviation passenger aircraft market.

Of course, the Chinese civil passenger aircraft market cannot be ignored. Data shows that in the next 20 years, China will soon receive 9,084 civil aviation aircraft of 50 or above, with a total value of up to US$1.4 trillion. Among them, there are 953 turbofan regional passenger aircraft, 120-seat-level receiving 6,295 aircraft, and 250-seat-level receiving 1,836 aircraft. At the same time, by 2040, the number of Chinese passenger aircraft will reach 9,957, accounting for 22% of the global passenger aircraft.

In other words, in the future, China's civil aviation passenger aircraft market will definitely be a hot spot in the eyes of Airbus and Boeing. Therefore, after obtaining the airworthiness certificate, C919 will "compete" with Boeing and Airbus to compete for the "big cake" of China's civil aviation passenger aircraft market. Therefore, once C919 is put into operation in the commercial field, the future market prospects will definitely be very broad.

This is not good news for Boeing and Airbus. In addition, Boeing has not yet recovered its "vigoration", which means it is very likely that it will not be able to obtain the future Chinese civil aviation passenger aircraft market. Therefore, the emergence of C919 is definitely more beneficial than disadvantages for China. It can even be considered that this is the strength that Chinese manufacturing has now, which can be compared with old airlines such as Boeing and Airbus. Who can say that Chinese manufacturing is just big but not strong?
