China Civil Aviation, AVIC (MA600) & COMAC (ARJ21/C919/C929)

For the time being, most of the core components of the C919 still use Western products and equipment. If you want to boycott the Chinese C919 trunk airliner, you are resisting mainstream aviation products in the West.


The C919 provides unconditional and comprehensive security alarms devices, and for the 737Max series, you will need to pay extra for expensive equipment.

As in the case of Indonesia and Ethiopia, you will need to pay extra Boeing for expensive security equipment.

Or prepare yoursleve to be dead.
I meant how good is it in terms of fuel efficiency and performance compared with 737. I think it should do well and get lots of orders.

For now, the fuel efficiency of the C919 is the same as that of Boeing and Airbus. It is good but not brillant. After all, due to the technical restrictions imposed by the United States and the European Union on China, it is impossible to export the most advanced engine technology to China, but as far as I know. It is already a very efficient aircraft.
 
CFM Leap engine family is used on Air Bus A320, Boeing 737 Max and COMAC C919. So fuel consumption rates will not differ much among three of them.

COMAC C919's engine is the latest.

Make the deliveries, fulfilling the current piling orders. Filling up the airspace within China, accumulating the immense effective flight hours in the first few years flawlessly.This will be the strongest answer to the many questions, from the substantial to trivial ones. First thing first. This will be the most important thing at the beginning! At the current stage, just fulfilling the piling orders will take many years.
 
From COMAC on 20 April:

This winter, the #ARJ21 showed strong performance in the frigid sub-zero temperatures of China's Heilongjiang Province. In the extreme cold environment, the Chengdu Airlines ARJ fleet demonstrated its reliability, flying an average of 6.3 hours/day and over 34,000 pax in the region.

China's Three Biggest Airlines to Begin Using Locally Made Jets

(Yicai Global) April 12 -- China Southern Airlines, China Eastern Airlines and Air China, the nation's three biggest Chinese carriers in order, are forging plans to start using the locally made ARJ21 regional jet.

China Eastern has set up a special team to prepare for operations using the aircraft, a source at the Shanghai-based airline told Yicai Global. Its subsidiary China Eastern Business Jet, which provides corporate chartered flights, will also use the plane, the insider added.

Commercial Aircraft Corp. of China (COMAC) developed two versions of the aircraft, one for passengers and one for freight, with ranges between 2,225 kilometers and 3,700 kilometers. The plane is intended for short-haul flights, typically from a central larger metropolis to surrounding smaller cities.

Regional carrier Chengdu Airlines already has 10 of the jets, and several other smaller airlines have some on order.

Air China and China Southern intend to set up new subsidiary airlines specifically to operate the ARJ21 planes. The nation's civil aviation regulator (CAAC) announced in 2016 that it would assume greater control over the formation of new airlines, and offer support to investors looking to set up regional carriers using domestic aircraft.
