COMAC's C919 passenger aircraft and ARJ21-700 aircraft have attracted widespread attention at Van Tun International Airport in Quang Ninh Province in Vietnam in the past two days. It is reported that this is the first time that the C919 passenger aircraft has landed in Vietnam, and the ARJ21-700 aircraft is also the first time to appear with the C919 passenger aircraft. The success of this test flight marks a new milestone for COMAC.
On February 26, local time, C919 passenger aircraft and ARJ21-700 aircraft landed smoothly at Yuntun International Airport, and the whole process was stable and reliable. Immediately after the aircraft landed, the crew carried out relevant testing work to ensure the safety and reliability of the aircraft. The two aircraft will be on static display on the 27th, and it is planned to tour in several cities in Vietnam in the following days, so that more people have the opportunity to experience COMAC's aviation products up close.
As a large jet regional airliner independently developed by COMAC, the C919 passenger aircraft has attracted the attention of the global aviation industry. It can carry between 150 and 168 passengers and has a range of more than 4,000 km. The engine of the C919 passenger aircraft uses the PW1000G series turbofan engine, which has the advantages of low fuel consumption and low noise. The test flight in Vietnam was conducted to further verify the performance of the aircraft in different climatic and environmental conditions.
The ARJ21-700 aircraft is a new generation of regional airliner developed by COMAC, and it is also the first jet regional airliner in China to obtain a type certificate. It can carry 78 to 90 passengers and has a range of more than 3,700 km. The demonstration of the ARJ21-700 aircraft in Vietnam will demonstrate COMAC's R&D strength and technical level in the field of regional airliners to the international market.
The appearance of the C919 passenger aircraft and ARJ21-700 aircraft in Vietnam not only demonstrates the technical strength of COMAC, but also reflects the in-depth development of cooperation between China and Vietnam in the field of aviation. As a Southeast Asian country, Vietnam is an important market for COMAC, and it is also an important symbol of COMAC's strengthening cooperation with Southeast Asian countries.
At present, 283 orders have been received for the C919 airliner and 453 orders for the ARJ21-700 aircraft. With the continuous promotion and display of the two models, COMAC believes that more international airlines will express interest in their products, injecting new impetus into the development of China's aviation industry.
COMAC's achievements in the aviation field are not only a reflection of technical strength, but also an important milestone for China's aviation industry to integrate into the global market. It is believed that in the future, COMAC will further strengthen cooperation with other countries in the world, promote the development of China's aviation industry, and make greater contributions to the prosperity of the global aviation industry.
