That is why aviation week is an anti-China western website that sprut rubbish about C919. It know nothing about Chinese aviation development. The most it create nonsense or recycle known news from other website about Chinese.
 
No more buying Boeing that is good news, rather seeing people death flying those Boeing parts manufacture in India. You fly any parts that put made in India, only one way to hell.

C919大型客机全机静力试验正式启动

2016-04-12 09:37 中国航空新闻网

中国航空新闻网讯：4月11日，C919大型客机静力试验机交付暨试验启动会在中航工业强度所上海分部成功举行，标志着C919大型客机静力试验正式启动。

中国商飞董事长金壮龙、总经理贺东风、副总经理吴光辉，中航工业副总经理李本正，以及中国商飞、中航工业、民航上海航空器适航审定中心有关部门、所属单位及强度所干部职工共计200余人参加了会议。

会上，中国商飞上飞院、上飞公司，强度所分别介绍了试验机的静力试验总体安排、试验机制造及全机静力试验的准备情况。上飞院、上飞公司，强度所现场签署了全机静力试验机交接书。

中国商飞董事长金壮龙、中航工业副总经理李本正、民航上海航空器适航审定中心主任顾新、中航工业基础院董事长孙侠生等共同为试验机交付揭幕。接着，中国商飞副总经理吴光辉宣读了全机强度试验现场联合指挥部成立文件。

随后，现场联合指挥部总指挥、强度所所长王彬文做了表态发言，他表示：全机静力试验现场联合指挥部将在项目行政指挥系统的统一部署和领导下，率领全体参试人员围绕一个中心，紧抓两条主线，贯彻三个一切，弘扬四种精神，凝心聚力、攻坚克难、确保完成各项试验任务，并着重做好三方面工作：一要深刻认识，高度重视，誓保首飞，为国争光；二要主动靠前、多线并行，确保试验准备工作高效推进；三要薪火传承、继往开来，确保首飞前试验按期完成。

会上，还向C919大型客机全机静力试验突击队和联合党支部党员攻关队进行了授旗。

中航工业副总经理李本正在讲话中对全机静力试验团队提出了三点要求，一是希望强度所干部职工要提高认识，进一步增强使命感和责任感；二要直面挑战，精心组织，狠抓落实，协同作战，及时解决试验中出现的问题，确保试验进度；三要牢固树立质量安全意识，严格执行各项质量标准，确保万无一失。

中国商飞公司总经理贺东风代表中国商飞讲话。他希望强度所与中国商飞要形成合力，相互支持，密切配合；所有参研单位要共同面对挑战，通力合作，在确保质量安全的前提下顺利完成试验任务，共同为确保C919飞机的按期首飞而努力。

Are there any news concerning the C919 ???

Following the last report I know - the one from Flight International - nothing happened ?

More than one month later ... now any latest news on the C919 ??
 
Does anyone know what's the reason ???

Comac Will Not Meet 2016 Target For C919 First Flight
Sep 14, 2016 Bradley Perrett | Aviation Daily

BEIJING—Comac will not meet its stated target of flying the first flight-test aircraft of its C919 program this year, industry sources say, as the company concedes that a 2017 first flight is possible. The aircraft is most likely to fly around April 2017—perhaps later—the sources said. The slippage implies a delay in the undisclosed target for first delivery, which in the first half of this year was 2019. Late delivery of C919s, with standard seating for 158, is unlikely ...

C919 pushes on with static tests in prep for first flight
09 September, 2016, BY: Mavis Toh, Shanghai

Comac says static strength tests for its C919 programme are slightly behind schedule, but that the team is still on track to complete the required tests by the end of the year, which will give an indication of whether the first flight can go ahead.

Shanghai Aircraft Design and Research Institute C919 deputy designer Zhao Junfeng says his team is focused on completing load tests, in support of the programme’s planned first flight for the end of the year.

“I’ve split things into three stages, first is the tests we need to do before first flight, after that the limit loads, followed by exploratory experiments,” Zhao tells FlightGlobal at AVIC’s newly-built static strength test facility in Shanghai, just a stone’s throw from Comac’s final assembly centre in Pudong.

Asked if he is satisfied with the test outcome thus far, Zhao says the results “are acceptable”, and that he is focused on using these tests to verify the static strength of the aircraft structure and components.

“Once we are able to do that, we will report it to the headquarters and tell them that the aircraft is ready to fly.”

When FlightGlobal visited the test facility in the first week of September, the aircraft was undergoing tests related to its landing gear. The unpainted fuselage had wings and its vertical stabilizer attached.

Zhao says that to hasten progress, while the main airframe is undergoing tests in Shanghai, tests on movable aircraft parts are being done in Xian.

He explains that while the ground test aircraft was handed over to the facility in April, there were still “bits of unfinished work” that had to be completed. The team thus had to “tie up loose ends” in manufacturing, while conducting tests concurrently.

An example is how modifications needed to be made to the aircraft to enable the installations of loading devices.

This has since pushed static strength test progress back from the previously targeted October completion.

“Our latest plan is to finish the tests by the end of the year. We need to complete the tests a month before first flight, conclude our experiments and make a report to the chief designer,” says Zhao.

Asked what is the biggest challenge now for static strength test works, Zhao says: “The main issue is schedule and the need for time. Static strength tests take time and if a certain part is delivered to me late, I will require more time.”

Comac is officially working toward a year-end first flight for the C919, but FlightGlobal understands that this is likely to be pushed back to early 2017.
