China’s C919 jet noses closer to European certification as regulators plan visit

Quick Summary:

In a step towards international certification for China’s C919 passenger jet, European officials will make a visit next month to get a closer look at the aircraft and its assembly.

In 2016, the European regulator certified the aircraft’s engine, the LEAP-1C, simultaneously with the US’ Federal Aviation Administration.

In April, CAAC officials paid a visit to EASA headquarters in Cologne, Germany, and last month another meeting was held in the Chinese city of Xiamen.
