China's 1st Passenger Plane Takes Off For Maiden Flight by obailala(m): 2:24pm On May 05, 2017 |
China's First Big Passenger Plane Takes-off for Maiden Flight China's first large domestically made passenger aircraft has completed its maiden flight, mounting a major challenge to Boeing and Airbus. After about 90 minutes in the air the plane landed safely back at Pudong airport in Shanghai. The plane is a key symbol of Beijing's soaring ambitions to enter the global aviation market. Made by state-owned firm Comac, it has been in planning since 2008 but the flight was repeatedly pushed back.http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-china-39814146 Meanwhile citizens of the 'Giant of Africa' are still so occupied with tribalism, nepotism, corruption and backwardness; we're still so busy blaming other tribes and religions for our stagnation. cc: lalasticlala 5 Likes 3 Shares |

This is impressive. Orders have already been placed for more than 500 of the planes, with commitments from 23 customers, say officials, mainly Chinese airlines. The main customer is China Eastern Airlines.This is exactly why China's manufacturing industry keeps moving at a steady upward pace. Just the other day on CNN they were launching the first domestically built aircraft carrier, and now it's a domestically built airplane. This is just impressive. |

Seun: the specs differs.......and that is more important than the looks. Moreover this will help them develop local capacity (technology) while cornering a fair share of the global market (money). |
