Delivery of China-made plane C919 delayed repeatedly; The lifeblood of aviation is in the hands of the USA
(21 Sep) In the past few years, China has invested fully in the manufacture of the domestically-made large passenger aircraft C919. At present, there are 28 domestic and overseas users, and the total number of global orders has reached 815. Some Chinese experts claimed that they could fight against the US and European aircraft manufacturers. However, as the delivery date of passenger aircraft has been delayed again and again, the outside world has begun to doubt whether China's aircraft dream will follow Huawei's footsteps under the general trend of US sanctions.
//he estimated that it might not be delivered successfully until 2022.
//The key technologies of the C919 airliner completely rely on American technology
//China is mainly responsible for the design of the fuselage, wings, tail and interior.
//"it does not make much sense to build an aluminum tube with a flag painted on the tail."
//China's dependence on the West for aircraft components and assembly is even stronger than Huawei's dependence on the West. With China's strategic development route in recent years and tensions between the United States and China, the United States is likely to impose sanctions on China's aviation industry in the future.
//it will take at least 10 to 20 years for China to join the rank of major aviation powers.

After Covid, Plane Makers Are Even More Dependent on China
Airlines in the West expect to take years to recover from Covid-19 and aircraft manufacturers depend on the resilience and growth potential of the Chinese market. But China’s own aerospace ambitions and the geopolitical tensions that surround them could make it a turbulent ride.
With another 500 million Chinese expected to join the middle classes over the next few years, the country is also the industry’s big growth opportunity. China is especially important for the Boeing 737 and Airbus A320 families
The alternative, which Western companies fear, is that the narrow-body gap will be filled by the C919, made by Chinese State-owned manufacturer Comac. C919 is delayed and unlikely to enter service before late 2021, with limited initial production capacity. It is key for Beijing’s “Made in China 2025” industrial plan. This shouldn’t be underestimated, especially in the later half of the decade. The Chinese government can sell the plane at very discounted prices, and it owns a big chunk of the customers.
