But the final sticker price is very attractive, fits with the money budgets of many emergent Asia/African/Latin america domestic operators. They seem to be almost exact performance numbers, but the C919 shortest range and passenger/pay load ratios show to be its weak point, but somehow could be equalized by the lowest final price. The most important fact, in the future in case this chinese aircraft get to be certified and operated is the reliabilty and post-sales parts and technical assistance, a must in this ultra competitive industry. Having said all that, the plane it self looks very good, sleek, elegant and clean shape. Good luck to Comac staff and manufacturing team.

The COMAC company leadership itself has many dislikes inside China by the Chinese because of its reluctance to use all of made in China parts but rather using a lot of european parts. The chinese gov has offered the military new engine which twice more powerful than the Leap but the COMAC chairman reject it, he also said rather than using the military engine COMAC is better developing its own engine which is CJ-1000A (an old generation engine and less powerful). In my guessing the reason for COMAC to use a lot of european or american parts is probably COMAC has a target toward european market sales.

They use large domestic aviation market to underwrite this learning process. The real competition will come in 2nd or 3rd generation products from China. This process has played out in automobile industry where now some domestic brands are competitive enough and start driving out foreign ones.

The airbus A320 is a relatively ‘old’ aircraft and now it is a good time to introduce the comac 919 as Boeing 737max is still having an image problem. Most important is the direct operating costs of A320 vs C919. The size and the performance are quite comparable between the C919 and the Airbus A320. The C919 is the only ‘new’ midrange aircraft in the market apart from the B737max. Many airlines will have to replace their Airbus fleet and the C919 has a big chance to enter the market. China’s domestic market is big and growing fast which certainly can accommodate the C919 for many years to come. The C919 is an excellent candidate in south East Asia, Africa and Latin America.

The deciding factor will be the operational profitability of each aircraft type. In terms of capital investment C919 is cheaper by 30% and although no comparison are made, relative operational cost particularly on fuel efficiency and requisite maintenance cost is presumed to be more cost effective for C919. Airline operation is a very challenging business and many owe their presence to flag carrying of the country than on strict commercial appraisal. With very few exception, airlines stocks offers few attraction for investment returns, if any. Introduction of much cheaper C919 with comparable capacity will be a compelling option, particularly for developing airliners.

They are only suitable for use within their respective continental routes. In other words, they are meant for short-haul flights of up to 6500 km flying ranges, ie. not adequate for Europe-Asia or Asia - Africa flights.

Although it is a cheaper aircraft, no European or American Airline will buy this aircraft. The same goes for the Russian MC-21. It might be sold to certain African or Latin Americans countries due to a lower purchase price. But if you compare this to the lower passenger capacity and range, the C919 will be more expensive after a certain number of years. The other problem might be spare parts.
