Comac C929

Air China will be the launch customer for the Comac C929 widebody aircraft.

Chinese OEM Comac has hinted that it is in the process of selecting the launch customer for the C929 widebody airliner.

Comac is reportedly working on preliminary designs of a new twin-aisle airliner dubbed the C939.

China has wrapped up its first joint research meeting for the Comac C929 widebody aircraft project, following Russia's withdrawal from the project in 2023.

The update is the most significant Comac has provided on the C929 since Russia dropped out of what was previously a bilateral program.

As Russia pulls out of the CR929 and Airbus and Boeing sit on their hands, JetZero is showing that its radical new concept just might be for real.

Western sanctions have impeded Russia’s participation in the widebody program, but China plans to pursue it alone.

Designers of the Russo-Chinese CR929 widebody passenger airliner continue to fine-tune the aircraft configuration.

Russia’s United Engine Corporation (UEC) has made a vital step in the development of the PD-35, its largest turbofan engine.

The CRAIC CR929 widebody-airliner program has slipped two years, with first delivery now due as late as 2029 following difficulties in cooperation between the Russian and Chinese partners.

The Russian government plans to save United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) after the country’s only aircraft manufacturer almost doubled its net loss in 2019.
