Recently, China's domestically produced comac C919 passenger jet model has carried its 500 000th passenger. The first model was inducted last year, 9 models are now in service. This marks a significant milestone in China's commercial aviation industry.did you know japan tried to build their own too but failed?why china can build commercial jet but japanese can't?look up mitsubishi spacejet>development suspended>As flight testing took longer than expected, the scheduled entry into service was further pushed back until development was first paused amid the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on aviation[2] and subsequently suspended indefinitely.[3]oh no no no
>embark on expensive, risky venture in the aerospace industry>global pandemic tanks travel>get out of the expensive, risky venture
When you steal the plans for your plane your R&D costs can be non-existent.
>>2017641Who'd they steal the plan from, Boeing? LMFAO
>>2017648Them and airbus. They then whip children until they climb into the hole and tighten the bolt.
>>2017649You are the frog at the bottom of the well who thinks the sky is the size of a coinChina has more industrial robots installed than the rest of the world
>>2017650Lol, ok, keep watch for the liveleak watermark.
>>2017630The US airline industry moves 2.6million people a day. Lmao, congrats China I guess…how many years is it going to take you to match what we can do in an afternoon?
>>2017648Yes retard, every part of the c919 is stolen
>>2017717Japanese commercial jets have moved a grand total of 0 people. kWAB
>>2017739Proof?
>>2017831This is a Mitsubishi, checkmate shill. Japanese aviation companies supply both Boeing and Airbus.
>>2017648IIRC the thing is basically Dornier 728, if its development hadn't been rudely interrupted by Fairchild-Dornier going bust. And if it had most of its innards replaced by chinkshit.
>>2017717I mean.. the Chinese have the biggest highspeed rail network in the world. Obviously they fly less. Any case OP is a retard who obviously hates Japs for a reason. I couldn't care less about some Chinese plane.
>>2017630All of the avionics on the comac are american ironically enough
>>2017650Yeah I remember reading the stat they have more per capita than places like Germany
>>2018674>YeahYeah?
>>2017834like 30-40% of any plane is Japanese even though japan barely produces any actual commercial airframes.
>>2017717tbf a solid chunk of planes operating in the US are European/Canadian/Brazilian designed or built
>>2018956And a solid chunk of european/canadian/brazilian airplanes are US designed/built
no one here is old enough to remember flyover subhumans seething about japanese cars existing, or laughing at the idea that anyone would want something made in taiwan or korea
>>2018962The Japanese always could engineer though and had a certain element of craftsmanship since the samurai era. They invented 7075 aluminum in 1935 ffs. Honda motorized all of Asia by the late 60s with the Super Cub (1958).I don't have faith in the Chinese escaping their "cha bu duo" philosophy. As a race they're capable of it (Taiwan and Singapore are proof) but it's still present in PRC and hard to escape.>>2018957They all rely on GE/Pratt (US), RR (British), or Safran (France) Turbofans.
>>2018986>Pratt>UScome on now
>>2019000Are you a Canadian retard that wants to pretend Pratt & Whitney are somehow ACTUALLY a Canadian company more than a US one?If so, you're retarded, if not, explain what kind of retardation you think is true so I can prove you wrong.
