COMAC C919 - claim for the future
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 июн 2024
- COMAC C919 is a medium-haul narrow-body airliner created by the Chinese Comac corporation in the mid-2010s. The C919 is one of the largest aviation programs in China's history and their largest serial production civil aircraft.
Despite the fact that, at first glance, the C919 seems to be quite a classic modern medium-haul airliner, the project is initially being implemented with an eye on the Chinese and developing countries markets and is being implemented withing an unusual concept, which, according to plans, should allow it to compete with the Boeing 737 and Airbus A320 airliners.
The task of creating an aircraft capable of operating successfully in the most competitive market is very ambitious and difficult. The implementation was also not simple and stretched considerably in time. But, despite all the difficulties, it looks like the C919 is ready.
In 2022, the aircraft is about to complete the certification program and start operation. At the first stage, it is planned that the C919 will occupy a significant niche in the regional and medium-haul transportation market in China. So, most of its customers are Chinese airlines and lessors. In the future, according to COMAC's plans, their offspring should enter the world market and win its niche, competing Boeing and Airbus.

The 919 is China's A300. It won't change the world, but will lay the ground work for more competitive designs in the future.
I thought the same. 😃
Disruption always starts from below…
Geo political issues come into existence. A neo colony of the United States will tend to buy from the US and not China or other non western powers.
no need to change the world, just change china is enough, after that, as long as its market is protected, thanks to western sanctions, its descendants can grow and conquer the world later
HDaviator
Did or has A300 changed the world?
This surely is a mammoth achievement considering not much aviation history as a country and the many competition killing sanctions and tactics from the industry bullies. Congratulations!
As an old student of aerodynamics ( 1966 ) in Canada and involved in man power flight I take off my hat to the team in developing the plane from scratch
It is a wonderful effort
Congratulations

😅, it wasn't developed from scratch, it is stolen tech from Boeing and others, there are ongoing litigations.
Wow a real veteran!

Congratulations to Chinese efforts for this world aircraft Industry
I wish that Chinese aircraft scientists and Technologists get fully success

people have money should buy comac shares, it is just going up and up. C919 is a game changer in china. It is the second break through after the troublesome of AR21 region jet. So the chinese are very proud.
It's a game changer only if it is at least 15-20% cheaper than A320. The fuel saving doesn't stand out despite LEAP powered. Unless Comac make the plane much lighter, the aircraft in its current state is only interesting for poor airlines that only want to maintain routes and flights. Also, unless we have another Covid-like disaster, or a war on a larger scale than Ukraine, I don't think western countries will struggle enough to think of buying cheaper aircraft than Airbus/Boeing.
Wumao spotted
I want to clarify something. Hongdu is NOT a place, it's a factory. The video sounds like it's a city like Shanghai, but the actual name for the city is Nanchang. I know it because I'm from that city and typing this comment literally kilometres from the proposed manufacturing plant. Hongdu is kind of a nickname given to the city because of its long history of flooding. (The word 'Hongdu' literally translates to 'flood city' or 'flood capital') It's a strange thing to be proud of constant flooding, but we do name factories here 'Hongdu' something factory, like the plane factory in this video. This is the factory that produced the first jet fighter for the PLA Air Force. But it got overtaken in the defense sector by factories in Chengdu and Shenyang. Now it's pivoting towards commercial jets by taking up the C919.
Xiexie, thanks friend for helping us learn. Im always happy to learn. 👍 Aviation is always ongoing learning, safety improvements, innovations and modernization and I'm sure that your awareness is helping everyone learn.
Sharing experiences & abilities saves time and safer practices for others. Many thanks. My renewed passport is ready to go to China 🇨🇳 and share business with others 👍
In short words, many of us recent years, can't believe our eyes, and learning how our greedy Western corporations are treating people as "Sheeple", forcing people into less quality habits. We really need to improve. Learning a few more languages is only only normal for some countries nearby borders, and part of our promoting better understanding qualities to help others whenever possible.
Good Luck To Everyone 👍
Thanks for the clarification.
Additiona info Hongdu specializes in Trainer aircraft like the JL-15.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR RETURNING to do these videos. You really "are" Skyships. So glad you're back. Happy holidays
Thank for full documentation of C919 , hope I could try sitting aboard a new C919
Very well done Documentary, very informative and great presentation ... thanks for your efforts to sharing this to the community!
Thank you! As a Shanghainese, we see the plane growing up day after days. Admittedly, there are delays in this project and meet a lot of delays. Financially, as you introduced in the video, the listing price is really quiet higher than stated. Arliners now can get discounts from both A and B quiet alot these days so the price for A, B and C now are roughly the same. But we still hope for the best for the C919 project and it really is much more sophiscated and well-thought than other chinese designed products
Western engine is the main problem hence the west could easily stop selling the engine to China whenever they wanted.
@@oneviwatara9384 yes that's right. It will face the similar situation as the Russians nowadays if the gov ditch the current balance

Yup China catching up with Airbus and Boeing with Comac C919's and later CR929's in the upcoming years too So alot is going too happen in the upcoming years Awesome Video!!!!
It will fly in China and Africa, big deal. Boeing and Airbus barely keep up with orders that have now.
Not EVEN CLOSE 🇨🇳😂🤣
Lovely presentation. Very good introduction of C919, keep it up
Chinese can build planes, no doubt about it. But can it be a competitive one? Yet to see.
Many in the comment says “oh I won’t step on one” I would have the same mindset, but then 737 MAX reminded us, a good reputation doesn’t mean their planes is fool proof.
Any competition is good competition. Boeing…fallen from grace just because they don’t have competition. While Airbus they are bossy enough to cancel Qatar’s order because defects they deemed not “an safety issue”. A 3rd option can force and remind the other two to watch out.
I don't know, after hearing about the range issue, I'm worried this might just end up being another Dassault Mercure, essentially a French 737-200 with less range.
@@randomscb-40charger78 china is not france
@@EmmaNguyen-mg5xq I said the Dassault Mercure *was* essentially a French 737-200.
@@randomscb-40charger78 they already have 600 orders. Iran is also a very big market for aviation. Due to sanctions they are unable to get any aircraft whatsoever. They are desparate for any new aeroplanes so they will buy it for sure. Africa is also a large potential market. No way this project can fail.
I do agree, a third option to Airbus and Boeing would give some competition would be better internationally.
so happy to hear his voice again!
Funny to see people complaining it's made in China that it is bad when you have Airbus aircraft production also made in China
That is most likely where Comac ‘acquired’ much of their design material, it looks very much like a knock-off A320.
@@sydyidanton5873 Because its having and wheel so its knock off airbus, so you expect China built airplane without wing then and how can it take off and fly.

Thank you Skyships - another very good one. Betcha neither of the THE OTHER [Big] TWO (manufacturers) are feeling 100% comfortable right now (never mind the ongoing "issues" each has). I'm disregarding Sukoi for the moment - just for now - what with (their) separate 'issues'....
I doubt they're that worried anywhere besides the third world market. Westerners don't even trust Chinese cars, no major airline is inking a deal for one of these.
At least, China developed a very nice looking aircraft! Good luck for that!

It's a good 👍 looking aircraft
Good looking doesn't equal safe...few westerners would set foot on one
@@JDAbelRN nah, there's probably at least 80% of "western" parts and technologies in it so it's at least 80% safe... 😼👌
Excellent, comprehensive video. One correction. I was an officer at International Aero Engines AG in the late 1980’s to mid-1990’s. We were developing the MD90 with McDonnell Douglas. “China Trunkliner” was in its early stages. This was a Shanghai Aircraft produced MD$82 for the domestic market. As the MD90 took shape, China wanted to also produce the MD90. Catic insisted on coproduction of the IAE V2500-D5 in China. In other words they wanted to steal the engine design secrets. IAE and our five nation partner governments wisely refused. The MD90 co-production aircraft never happened.
Actually 2 MD90 were produced in China. The program was then cancelled by Boeing after it took over MD.
Good luck C919.
Excellent, as usual!
Love the C919, hope you can cover the CR929 someday
That will be interesting

In thirty years....😂😉🤣🇨🇳☢️
@@JDAbelRN ，Correct, Boeing will be out of the commercial plane business in the next 30 years.
@@YouCCP2 yep, all Boeing tech will be stolen by then.
Besides the C919, this video itself is an achievement! Good job!
The C919 is a good start. It's somewhat sub-par in terms of aerodynamics, materials and weight saving, but all that will come in time. The rest of the plane is like Boeing and Airbus 31:43 pick a supplier.
Thank you for another great video,

What are the multi-year operating costs? If the acquisition and operating costs are low enough, you could base an entire airline in Denver and reach the entire lower 48 with it.
Excellent presentation.
It is time for some competition in the commercial aviation field in the world. This is wonderful specially after the 737 max fiasco.
Welcome back Sky.
Does anyone know how does the price compare with boeing 737 for a large order like from Ryanair for over 100 planes ? Wiki sayes list price $112 million, so Ryanair would expect them for half price $56 million with a large order. Will the COMAC be able to compete with a discounted $56m 737 max 900 ER.
May be, COMAC renders half price with the half safety. This country is keen on budget goods. ............
@@bunyavissuthisorn5909the price is actually quite similar and the safety is the same
上年底交付的919飞了一次后就反推故障，然后没有消息了，直到今天准备交付东航的第二架919开始试飞，但第一架去哪了还是不知道
I like loons! Cool birds.
I am not an aviation expert, but the fundamentals of the new Chinese airliner seem noticeably better than the Boeing 737. Which was developed way back in the 1960s.
The COMAC C919 does not come across like a copy, but an improved version of the 737. Maybe it's more like the Airbus A320?
I really took notice of the added ground clearance, higher wings and better placement of the engines!.. Time will tell, but I like the starting point.
But thg e A320 SUCKS.
Well, it has two wings, a T-tail, 2 engine so obviously according to westerners, it is a copy stolen from Boeing.
@@JB-nt5lu Both the A320 and the C919 have better fundamentals than the ancient 737 airframe with its shoehorned new engines screwing up the plane's balance and aerodynamics.
Then there is the disturbing amount of wing flex, and fuel leaking out during takeoff???
Watch... "Fiji Airways 737 MAX 8 Takeoff from Wellington with Lots of Wing Flex and Wingtip Vortices"
It's better for the Chinese to go their own way as much as they can. Keeping it classy.
Beware the Boeing apologists making excuses for everything. Even trying to make all the disturbing things sound good or normal.
@@gelinrefira That's a good point. What were the Chinese supposed to do, put the engines on top of the wings? That would have been great fun for the passengers.
I see substantive improvements, not copying. I'm old enough to remember the Japanese being accused of copying in the 1980s and 90s, but they were more innovative than that. There was also better quality and refinement.
That competition inspired my fellow Americans to do better, but there was a lot of anti-Japanese/anti-Asian bitterness being expressed. Now I see the same ugly reactionism toward the Chinese.
My fellow Americans should focus more on what we are doing, or what we are not doing, but should. If we started copying some of the things that the Chinese are doing, that would be progress.
@@harleyearl3289 fuel comes out the end of the wings as its designed too. when fueled, cold fuel expands and needs to vent. during taxing, it can happen if the fuel temp rises a lot. wings also flex as they are designed too. they even change during flight as supercritical wings are more efficient.
the b737 looks old because the fuselage is a chopped down from the b707 - the 1st boeing jet offering. so the design is 70 years old.
Finally, a great cover for a medium haul competitor!
It’s rather surprising that COMAC didn’t even consider making a B767/A300 type widebody for mainland flights. It would definitely sell like hotcakes to Asian markets which currently utilize big widebodies at about half capacity for domestic routes. Low cost carriers in SEA region like Cebu Air, Vietjet, and Air Asia wouldn’t say no for a cheap brand new widebody that would save them more money in the long run.
That's what CR929 is, no?
@@ex0duzz The CR929 is slated to be a competitor to the B787/A330, which currently is too big for the medium haul routes predicted to take off (no pun intended) in the coming years as point-to-point travel becomes more commonplace.
Well it took them 10 years to build this aircraft. You are asking too much.
@@DontUputThatEvilOnMe Maybe I do, but so does Chinese carriers. China pulled out from the CRAIC joint venture for obvious reasons, which severely crippled their future plans. Boeing also publicly said that they’ll be cancelling any plans for B797/NMA project as the tech to do it sustainably wasn’t there yet, while Airbus seemed to push their luck with the A321XLR. If anything, it’d be a miracle if the C929 even be materialized within this decade.
@@Nafeels didn’t know China pulled out of CRAIC. But I have seen talk about Boeing cancelling their NMA is a strategic lie. This is because their new CEO has done things like this in the past and it would be to Boeing’s advantage if Airbus is unaware of the new program. But only time will tell.
Good to hear your voice.
Just like an early 90s A320.
Since you’ve already made a video on the MiG-35 you should make a video on the MiG-29 sometime soon since the MiG-35 video was a while ago.
Good morning from Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦
Good evening from Dubai, UAE 🇦🇪
I think this plane looks great, but no airline where I am from will ever have them, I doubt the c919 or the Irkut mc-21 will ever land in north america which is too bad because both planes look fantastic.
So much stolen IP;(
@@openphoto that's political excuse to say, we don't want competition.. LOL
@@openphoto if you believe that, you better believe half of the US technological and other industries are based on stolen IP from the Soviets and Europe. Did Boeing and Airbus steal IP from each other? This BS about “IP theft” is pathetic, and holds no water. Every country, company, designer ever has taken influence and ideas and whole designs from others. Stop whining about China’s development, it only shows you can’t handle that the United States’ industry is built upon the labour and design and talent of foreigners and other countries. Everything you own, top quality and worst quality, is built overseas, designed by other people, etc. The US is a dying empire.
amazing
It should have mentioned that the aircraft has a range of 2,200 nautical miles, enough for most domestic Chinese and regional routes. The C919 can seat 158 to 168 passengers.
737-8/900 can pack 185+. .......
@@bunyavissuthisorn5909 the 737 is a proven design from the 60s. The COMAC is nothing short of amazing! I hope China’s future is bright

Do u think chinese will now claim boieng
@@didyoumissedmegobareatersk2204 only the history lesson here reminds us Chinese have been often not credited in our history books, for growing our US economy in various ways.
Also Chinese largely helped with hard work building our original railways, yet not much references in our history books. Many were promised pay and fair treatment yet many unfortunately were abused or often killed off with owners going unpunished and paid much less respect as slaves, similarly as Natural Native Indians were mistreated.
And European "popularized Italian foods" taking credit for "noodles, pasta & pizza" originally long ago was brought by famous "Marco Polo" traveling back from China, introduced various original foods & recipes to Europe,
Plus various things including the original technology of the first Boeing passenger aircraft too. Mr Boeing's efforts promoted Boeing same as Elon Musk promoted Tesla when no other "investors" were interested.
@@SafepathUS I trust Elon Muskrat as much as I trust MSNBC...
Very well said.
It has been speculated (and refuted, of course) that the bodies of hundreds of unpaid Chinese railroad workers would be found at the bottom of Lake Tahoe today...preserved by the ultra cold temperatures down there. I wouldn't be surprised if this was true...even after all the 'fact-checking'...🤔🤨🧐
great presentation
Made in China about to become a flex
During turbulence that flex isn't comforting
I could feel this is a humble video, the way it presents the C919 to the world is more humble and comfortable rather than usual chinese TV program style (I.e. 《厲害了，我的國》（英語：Amazing China).
By the way,
Russian has MD21 > they already installed their homemake engine against international sanction.
Chinese has C919 > they have no homemake commercial grade engine (YET).
Just wonder what are Chinese's contingency plan against international sanction on engines and critical aviatronic equipment?
Anyway it is a good starts > just like Toyota rollout her first model in 1920s > now it becomes an automobile industrial gaint.
So Boeing and Airbus really see COMAC as a threat and serious competition in the future (not like the scale of Embraer, Bombardier nor De Havilland!!!)
It looks awesome
The first step is the hardest.
We will see if it ever gets FAA or EASA certification if not it will be restricted to Chinese’s airspace
With the Chinese takeover of Africa I'd imagine that's where these are destined.
Even then it would be hugely successful, because China's internal airplane market is absolutely massive. State owned airlines and even done private ones will favor the national alternative, resulting in automatic guaranteed orders in the thousands.
It will most likely be restricted due to the Western governments policy to contain China.
China is well-aware of this factoid, but they are patient, strategic, and relentless in their "journey of a thousand miles".
They have their space-station now after being excluded from the ISS. Their EV technology is arguably the best in commercial buses and passenger cars.
May God bless their humility and patience.
We still got asian, russia, south america, africa except you two not forgiving continents.😏
Then boeing and airbus will lose China's martket😂
The Asian market will accept the chinese plane. Boeing having issues with their 747 and lost of confidence worldwide, is a good time for Comac to take the market.
Would be nice to see Chinese people get a good wage for there work 😊
Some of them are probably making more money than you!
I read that the prototype of the bigger CR929 200+seater is either completed or near completion. The CR929 is jointly produced by Russia and China. I suppose the R stands for Russia. I am sure there will be a CR939.....and others.
its interesting then why the chinese just put in a bumper order for the airbus a320 series of aircraft. the c919 will need composite wings to get the weight down, but im sure thats possible in future as china seems to be able to scale and adapt quickly. just look at their car industry.
The world needs safe planes, may through healthy competition the best manufacturer win.
Skyship could you do a Video about the Shanghai Y-10
You are back, huurrah!!!
This video is the best, well informed info about C919.
Every person, every country, every nation or every individual will be given by Allah for their progress.
Its inauguration flight is 2012, refered to 2018 Wikipedia. Number built is 10 as of Dec 21, 2022. FAA just endorsed 919 in the last minute, most airlines in China hardly buy it. Such a promising jetliners. ......
What is the current state of russian aviation? Do they have anything domestic to replace the airplanes that is going to run out of flying hours soon? Will Comac be crucial to replace other brands (with russian engines?) ?
Yep, TU-214, will be upgraded to modernised CM spec, so two pilot cockpit (was already done some time ago but never really produced), SJ100 new is already flying with PD8 engines, Irkut MC-21 is flying with PD14 engines, so soon to be delivered, Avionics now run on JetOS, there are other beauties, like il-114-300, close to certification and of course the super mega awesome IL-96-400, but that one will most likely be only used for government services and not commercially (shame). Some smaller projects like Ladoga are also running but that is a small plane. Russians finally stuck their heads out of their asses and will rebuild domestic aircaraft manufacturing to the max potential. Oh an if someone thinks they cannot produce semiconductors for their Aviation sector, please just Google Russian semiconductor industry and grow up.
New flight superpower
😍 oh chinese are making domestic airline and improving greatly
Thought that was an airbus A320 in the thumbnail.
Haha, the A320 from the AliExpress
A320 is a copie of B737, the first take off, crash in Habsheim, following with 46 crashs, over 8000 passagers dead, hihihihihihi
@@kicker3595 Utter bullshit. Why do trolls make up lies out of thin air? According to Boeing's own stats, the A320ceo is 80 times safer than the 737MAX, 3 times safer than the 737 Classic, and slightly better (not statistically significant different) than the 737NG. You are about one order of magnitude off on the death numbers, and Habsheim (which was NOT the 1st flight) was caused by the pilots literally flying into the forest due to lack of airshow planning (the FBW saved most onboard by not allowing a stall). Since then the A320 has an accident rate of 0.08 per million (the neo is at 0.00), compared to 7.12 with the 737MAX. Source: skybrary.aero/sites/default/files/bookshelf/32664.pdf
@@kicker3595737 literally has the highest kill count
This writing gets the thumbs up.
To say all this is not just McDonnell Douglas making the DC-9 and 10 in China, but Airbus was the first aircraft manufacture to build a facility in Tianjin to assemble A320s, this could also lead toward Airbus and it’s new market of strategy.
Companies like Mitsubishi, and Honda from Japan are also in the works but most likely it is more possible to see Qantas using a passenger aircraft build by a company from Japan than in a COMAC- C919.
Markets ready not to count Airbus out as Airbus acquired Bombardier from Canada and yet soon Airbus will have a Korean manufacture under their belt; that projects on the next A320 will be the most fuel efficient passenger aircraft in the world not to say what Airbus will do next after the failure of the Boeing 737 MAX 9 yet a newer more state of the art Airbus A320 plane; could be on the works of a Boeing failure in South Korea.
But in that case COMAC-C919 could have a tough time competing with Boeing and Airbus while Boeing where to fail in South Korea, then Airbus acquired Korea Aerospace Industries and gets involved with the F-21 Hawk project known as Boramae as government contracts switched to be in favor of Airbus and Airbus will probably end up working with NASA and probably be involving with South Korea’s space projects; to say potential for Airbus will be the Airbus Korea division will be more successful and South Korea becomes Airbus country that all South Korean Airliners will only use Airbus and nothing else.
Philosophy: Aeronautical engineers make a beautiful aircraft, and believe that pilots will destroy his creation.
Pilots believe that the aero engineers are just trying to kill us.
Ask me how we know.
I can't see this being successful outside of Chinese domestic market. Like you mentioned in the video the maintenance infrastructure isn't in place like boeing, airbus or even embraer. Furthermore, aircrafts such as the a320 neo, max 8, a220 and the new E2 are proven to be very popular. Which it's going to be hard for the c919 to compete against, it uses A LOT of foreign components. Which it turn it could be problematic with the raising tensions with China and the west.
I too only see this in domestic China, 3rd world countries with strong China ties, or some upstart ultra low cost that can't find any inventory to lease. The shorter range, lower capacity, and lower efficiency makes it not worthwhile for any major airline to invest resource and further segregate their already thinned out (post COVID) pilot roster. That said, it is a decent start and having a new manufacturing pipeline is always good in this sub category. COMAC will need another generation to catch up.
How does this aircraft compare with the Sukhoi SU-100 Superjet?
I'm glad that the C919 and MC21 exist, but wish they could be the same project.
the mc21 is more advanced. it has composite wings for a start. Its comparable to an A320 Neo. its also a lot cheaper than the c919.
The best C919 documentary
I'm not sure how this is going to compete in markets that are very sensitive to Chinese infiltration.
should be good. heck, even f35 used chinese made parts
Isn't that COMAC produced together with MS (Russia)?
Can the c919 beat the competition on fuel saving if 90% of the plane is aluminium alloy ?
Does this mean that North Korea's Air Koryo will finally get new airplanes?
More vids on jet fighters?
Soon
Thanks for the thorough explanation!!! Wishing COMAC success with the C919 & Beyond!!! 🛫🛫🛫🛫🛫🛫🛫🛫
Ni hao aviators. This is so interesting 😃
i'm surprised it isn't entirely chinese or chinese aligned parts, though if it was i would expect it to release in a decade or more from now
Not enough technology and know-how to construct 100% Chinese jetliners. ........
They’ll undercut price (with government support) to the point one of the low cost carriers will buy some. Hopefully the main stream carriers don’t bite.
why? competition is what drives down prices for us customers.
@@randomname931 it’s not competition when the Chinese government sells a product below cost until there isn’t any competition.
They're not targeting at the US market. Mostly like domestic (China), Africa, and LCCs in developing regions like SE Asia. That's enough to keep them fed for awhile.
@@ryanshih9805 to start. Look at steel, etc.
@@josefernandez6226 sounds like capitalism to me.
When will it be available at Walmart?
C919 looks like a220
We need competitor in the aero space industry. China is a great candidate. She can produce some great products for lower price and then it will benefit us as consumers. I am shocked to hear that whether the plane is suitable for flight is up to the manufacturer itself, not the federal government. After the down of B737max, I heard some analysist in Wall Street says that the price of Boeing will go back up because airbus is at the maximum capacity and the market needs more planes. Customers have no choice but to buy from Boeing. This kind of mentality is terrible. Life does matter in those people’s eye. Financial interest comes first. As a consumer, that is why I want more competitors in the aero market. Don’t let Air Bus and Boeing be the only two players in the world. We need a safe air travel.
Awesome video!!!!
