china's domestically developed single-aisle passenger jet c919 netted 40 new orders from tibet airlines at the opening day of the singapore airshow on tuesday, while its debut at an overseas air show signals the model's official entry into the global civil aircraft market, said an industry expert.The domestic single-aisle passenger aircraft C919 received 40 new orders from ** Airlines on the opening day of the Singapore Air Show, and industry experts said that the debut of the C919 international air show marked the official entry of the model into the global civil aircraft market.
tibet airlines, a regional carrier based at gonggar airport in lhasa, xizang autonomous region, signed a deal with commercial aircraft corp of china for 40 c919 aircraft in the plateau variant. the variant meets transportation requirements in high-altitude areas by shortening the fuselage and featuring high-altitude modifications.**Aviation signed an agreement with COMAC to order 40 C919 high-prototype aircraft. This model meets the transportation requirements of plateau areas by shortening the fuselage and implementing plateau modifications.
the c919 aircraft participated in an overseas air show for the first time, promoting its global sales. we hope that the model will gain new orders from overseas carriers," said lin zhijie, a civil **iation industry analyst.Lin Zhijie, an analyst in the civil aviation industry, said: "The C919 aircraft participated in an overseas air show for the first time, driving its global sales. We hope that this aircraft will receive new orders from overseas airlines. ”
so far, the c919, comparable with the narrow-body airbus a320 and the boeing b737 series, has netted more than 1,100 orders from home and abroad. two c919 and three arj21 regional aircraft made their debut at the singapore airshow.To date, the C919, which is comparable to the narrow-body Airbus A320 and Boeing B737 families, has received more than 1,100 domestic and foreign orders. Two C919s and three ARJ21 regional jets made their debut at the Singapore Airshow.
as the global air tr**el market continues to recover from the covid-19 pandemic, the c919 is expected to meet growing tr**el demand and break the market duopoly of boeing and airbus.As the global air travel market continues to recover from the pandemic, the C919 is poised to meet the growing demand for travel and break the market duopoly of Boeing and Airbus.
tibet airlines also signed an agreement with comac, the aircraft's manufacturer, for an order of 10 arj21 jetliners in the plateau variant.** The airline has also signed an order with COMAC for 10 ARJ-21 aircraft.
the arj21 is china's first home-developed regional passenger jet, and the plateau variant has good crosswind resistance at high-altitude airports.The ARJ21 is China's first self-developed short- and medium-range regional aircraft, and the ARJ-21 high-altitude prototype aircraft has good crosswind resistance at high-altitude airports.
currently, more than 110 arj21 aircraft are in commercial operation, with most operating at regional airports.Currently, more than 110 ARJ21 aircraft are in commercial operation, most of which operate at regional airports.
meanwhile, henan civil **iation development and investment group signed an order with comac for six arj21 aircraft.In addition, Henan Aviation Investment and COMAC signed an order for six ARJ21 derivatives.
airports located at an altitude above 1,500 meters and below 2,438 meters are considered high-altitude, and those at 2,438 meters and above are ultra-high-altitude airports. such airports face significant difficulties due to the high altitude and sparse oxygen.Airports above 1,500 meters and below 2,438 meters above sea level are considered high-altitude airports, and airports above 2,438 meters above sea level are considered ultra-high-altitude airports. Due to the high altitude and the thin oxygen, these airports face huge challenges.
high-altitude airports are mainly in china, nepal, peru, bolivia and ecuador. among the top 10 airports with the highest altitudes worldwide, china has eight, according to industry reports.High-altitude airports are mainly located in China, Nepal, Peru, Bolivia and Ecuador. According to industry reports, China has 8 of the top 10 airports with the highest altitude in the world.
the c919's high-altitude variant has 140 to 160 seats, and its takeoff and landing performance meets the requirements of all ultra-high-altitude airports in china. the regular c919 passenger jet has 158 to 192 seats and a flying range of 4,075 to 5,555 kilometers, comac said.With 140 to 160 seats, the C919 prototype aircraft has a take-off and landing performance that meets the requirements of all ultra-plateau airports in China. COMAC said the C919 ordinary passenger aircraft has 158 to 192 seats and a range of 4,075 to 5,555 kilometers.
china boasts the world's biggest demand for high-altitude planes. the c919's plateau variant has a smaller passenger capacity, shorter fuselage and lighter weight. corresponding modifications h**e been made to the engine and the oxygen system," lin said. "the plateau variant is of great significance for meeting the tr**el demand of passengers in high-altitude regions of china," he added."China is the country with the largest demand for high-prototype aircraft in the world. The C919 has a smaller passenger capacity, a shorter fuselage and a lighter weight. Corresponding changes were made to the engine and oxygen system. The high-altitude prototype is of great significance to meet the travel needs of passengers in China's high-altitude areas. ”
china should further promote the development of the regional **iation market and launch more regional routes, and build a group of specialized and scaled regional carriers," said li guijin, a professor at the beijing-based civil **iation management institute of china.Li Guijin, a professor at the Civil Aviation Management College of China, believes that China should further promote the development of the regional aviation market, open more regional routes, and create a number of specialized and large-scale regional airlines.
the c919 aircraft made its first commercial flight in may 2023. so far, four c919 jets h**e been put into commercial operations by shanghai-based china eastern airlines and they h**e handled more than 110,000 passenger trips.The C919 aircraft made its first commercial flight in May 2023.
