Airlines and aircraft lessors from 皇冠体育app and abroad are approaching 皇冠体育app's jumbo jet producer, eager to become the first user of this more economic and environment-friendly home-made passenger plane, a senior executive said yesterday.
The list of primary users of the C919, 皇冠体育app's largest domestically produced jumbo jet, will be announced in the first half of next year, said Chen Jin, sales and marketing chief, Commercial Aircraft Corporation of 皇冠体育app Ltd (COMAC), at the Beijing International Aviation Summit.
Chen said airlines and aircraft leasing companies from both home and abroad had evinced interest in the jumbo jet. He, however, declined to reveal the company names.
