They used American tooling for this plane, this is not a Chinese design. It is a MD/Boeing 717 with GE engines. Why this would make China a future competitor in aviation I have no idea???
The rear emergency exit is so close to the engines it just makes me nervous. Evacuating passengers could potentially get harmed by the possibly-spinning engines.
Boeing jets are so much better cause they have their engines on the wings where God intended them, unlike a certain Panda infested country has them. Which proves that the problems with the 787 ar cause some backward nation messed up the design and poor Boeing Painters are doing the real work to make the planes look good.
@segregator236 The C-series engines will be supplied by P&W, which supplies engines to Boeing 777-series, the PW4000. Previously, they offfered engine on the 767 and 757, as well as the 747, 737, and McDonnell-Douglas airframes. Incidentally, those are "Boeing engines".
Good luck. They will need help with wing and airfoil design to get the same efficiency as Airbus and Boeing. Even the Russians buy Boeing and Airbus, can you tell me why that is and how China will have the world's top aviation industry in about 9 years?
While the first few planes they make will probably have huge safety issues and performance issues they, with their billions of dollars sitting around, will fix it right away. You're probably right, by 2018 China will be a powerful force in aviation.
@segregator236 As the flight of our J-20 stealth fighter, China is already in top 3 in the world regarding the military aviation industry. Jumbo plane is our next goal. Go, China!
ARJ21's maker and its partners can survive just by taking the orders from China, which is projected to be the largest airliner market in the world. So market wise, ARJ has an advantage over embraer and bombardia.
not taking anything away but this market is headed for a bloodbath from a duopoly embraer and bombardier we will now have sukhoi rrj,mitsubishi rrj, chinese arj 21 is the market big enough to sustain 5 players ?
These days thanks to high fuel prices it is actually about to shrink as airliners shift to more fuel efficient turboprops to cut costs.CHINA already did produce a civil jet it was called Y 10 but bombed on the market hope this doesn't.Greetings from India.
Not really, its performance twice better than Boeing 717 and using more composite material to make sure its safer, economical and more ranger than ordinary Boeing 717. By the way, airlines waiting for ages to roll out Boeing 787.

China do not know how to make planes.
They know how to steal technologies - that YES !

BESIDES the ARJ21, China will also be building larger and more advanced jumbo jets (these jets are the most advanced in the world):
- C919
- C929
- C939
- CS2010
- CS2000
These jets will incorporate the world's most advanced technology.
China's aviation industry is expected to become the world's top and most advanced industry by 2018.
Big dreams. Big planes.

The engines on the C series will be superior and more powerful than Boeing engines, that's what I read.

@segregator236 Boeing engines? Boeing doesn't make engines. They put engines from P&W (American), GE, and Rolls-Royce (British) on their aircraft.

The C and CS will be the two main lines of jumbo jet aircraft
There will be C919, C929, C939, CS2000, and CS2010

Correct! The plane is ideal for short intercity flights on the mainland.
Looking forward to our jumbo jets in 5-10 years time!

it's like a honda or toyota in automobiles. this plane will probably be cheaper and way more efficient than older planes.
