Project in Focus:
MA700 Project |
China’s Xian Aircraft plans to add to the competition by launching its own 70-seat MA700 in 2019, with shrink and stretch versions being offered. Chris Seymour, head of market analysis with Flightglobal’s advisory service Ascend believes, however, that bigger turboprops are inevitable. “They have come to dominate the very short-haul markets and a move up to the larger size is seen as a foregone conclusion,” he says. |
Updates on C919 |
C919 Expected to Make Maiden Flight in 2015. The airworthiness of C919 shall be certified in compliance with the requirements of 150-seat large plane, which should accommodate such environmental factors as ditching. |
AVIC AC series civil helicopter |
Chinese rotorcraft maker Avicopter has slipped the development schedule of its proposed 3.1-metric-ton (6,800-lb.) helicopter, while revealing more data about the type and confirming its designation as AC332. |
CJ-1000 commercial engine programme |
Speaking recently on the medium- to long-term plans for China's aviation industry, Zhang Yanzhong said that the country has identified jet engine development as one of its priorities. |
