The C919, China's domestically developed narrowbody passenger jet, will begin its first scheduled international commercial service next month, a step industry experts said will test the aircraft's ability to operate beyond domestic markets and help build confidence for wider overseas expansion.中国自主研发的窄体客机C919将于下月开启首条国际定期商业航线。业内专家表示，此举将检验该机境外运营能力，也有助于为后续更大规模海外拓展积累信心。The daily round-trip service, operated by Air China, will connect Beijing Capital International Airport and Ulaanbaatar's Chinggis Khaan International Airport in Mongolia from Aug 12, the airline said.国航方面透露，这条每日往返航线将于8月12日起通航，往返北京首都国际机场与蒙古国乌兰巴托成吉思汗国际机场。According to the schedule, outbound flight CA723 will depart Beijing at 3 pm Beijing time and arrive in Ulaanbaatar at 5:15 pm local time. The return flight, CA724, will leave Ulaanbaatar at 6:30 pm local time and arrive in Beijing at 8:35 pm Beijing time.根据航班计划，出境航班CA723北京时间15时从北京起飞，当地时间17时15分抵达乌兰巴托；返程航班CA724当地时间18时30分从乌兰巴托起飞，北京时间20时35分落地北京。The route marks the first time the C919, manufactured by Commercial Aircraft Corp of China, will enter a regular international commercial passenger aviation market.该航线是中国商飞制造的C919客机首次投入常态化国际客运商业运营。Previously, the aircraft has operated mainly on Chinese mainland routes, as well as services connecting the mainland with the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. China Eastern Airlines launched the aircraft on scheduled flights between Shanghai and Hong Kong in January 2025, while Air China began regular C919 services between Beijing and Hong Kong in November.在此之前，C919主要执飞中国大陆境内航线，以及内地往来香港特别行政区的航班。东方航空已于2025年1月用该机开通沪港定期航线，国航则在同年11月开通京港C919常态化航班。"Choosing Ulaanbaatar as the first regular international destination is not a move to lower the entry barrier or test the waters," said Zhu Keli, founding director of the China Institute of New Economy.中国新经济研究院创始院长朱克力表示：“选择乌兰巴托作为首条国际定期航线目的地，并非为了降低准入门槛、浅尝辄止。”Zhu said the decision reflected a combination of factors including aviation cooperation between China and Mongolia, airworthiness cooperation arrangements, operational safety and route economics.朱克力称，这一决定是多重因素综合考量的结果，涵盖中蒙航空合作、适航协作机制、运营安全以及航线经济效益。"China and Mongolia have maintained stable civil aviation cooperation, with a relatively mature framework for airworthiness cooperation," Zhu said. "The airport environment is relatively straightforward, the flight distance is moderate and the aircraft can complete a round trip within a day, allowing domestic technical support to respond quickly if operational issues arise."朱克力表示：“中蒙民航合作长期稳定，双方拥有较为成熟的适航协作体系。当地机场运行环境简单，航程适中，客机可当日往返，一旦出现运行故障，国内技术保障力量能快速响应处置。”The route also has established business and tourism demand, making it suitable for regular commercial operations rather than serving only as a demonstration flight, Zhu said.他表示，该航线拥有稳定的商务、旅游客流需求，适合常态化商业运营，而非仅作为示范航班。He said the first international route is aimed at validating the full process of cross-border operations, including overseas maintenance support, international air traffic coordination and customs procedures.他表示，首条国际航线的核心目的是完整验证跨境运营全流程，包括境外维修保障、国际空管协调、海关通关流程等环节。"Ulaanbaatar is more like a low-risk practical training ground where the C919 can accumulate real overseas operating data and build a replicable model for future international expansion," Zhu said.朱克力称：“乌兰巴托更像一处低风险实操试验场，C919可以在这里积累真实海外运营数据，为后续国际化拓展打造一套可复制的运营模式。”Guo Jia, a civil aviation expert and professor at Guangdong University of Foreign Studies' South China Business College, said safety considerations were the primary factor behind the selection of the first international destination.广东外语外贸大学南国商学院民航专家郭佳教授表示，安全考量是选定首个国际通航点的首要因素。He said Air China's previous experience operating the C909 regional jet to Ulaanbaatar, along with the airline's assessment of airport handling and maintenance capabilities, also supported the route choice.他介绍，国航此前长期使用ARJ21支线客机执飞乌兰巴托航线，同时航司对当地机场地面保障、维修维护能力进行过充分评估，这也助推了这条航线落地。For the Chinese aviation industry, the significance of the route extends beyond the flight itself, experts said.专家指出，对中国航空产业而言，这条航线的意义远不止航班运营本身。"Previously, C919 operations were mainly based on China's domestic airspace and supporting infrastructure," Zhu said. "This scheduled international route means the aircraft is entering a regular commercial passenger aviation system between countries."朱克力表示：“此前C919的运行完全依托国内空域与配套保障体系，这条国际定期航线，标志着该机正式进入跨国常态化商业客运体系。”The operation will help establish overseas support capabilities, including maintenance cooperation, spare parts arrangements and international operating procedures, Zhu said.朱克力称，此次通航将助力搭建境外配套保障体系，涵盖维修合作、备件储备、跨境运营流程等多个方面。Guo said international expansion would require more than aircraft performance. "Aircraft sales, international operations and market expansion all need to comply with the airworthiness standards of different countries and regions," Guo said, adding that broader international communication and certification efforts would be necessary.郭佳表示，国际化拓展不只是考验飞机性能。“飞机销售、跨境运营、市场开拓都必须符合各国各地区的适航标准，还需要开展大量国际沟通与适航认证工作。”Guo added that overseas maintenance, aircraft support and route support capabilities would be among the key challenges for international operations.郭佳补充，境外维修、整机后勤保障、航线配套能力，将是该机开展国际运营的核心难点。Looking ahead, experts expect the C919's international expansion to be gradual. "C919's internationalization will not follow an aggressive model of rapidly launching a large number of routes," Zhu said.展望未来，专家认为C919的国际化进程将循序渐进。朱克力表示：“C919不会采取激进模式，短时间内密集开通大量国际航线。”After validating operations in Ulaanbaatar, the aircraft will likely expand first into short-haul international markets in Central Asia and Southeast Asia, allowing it to accumulate experience under different operating conditions, Zhu said.朱克力表示，在乌兰巴托航线完成运营验证后，C919大概率会先拓展中亚、东南亚短途国际市场，在多样运行环境中积累运营经验。"The priority is to complete the transition from zero to one — making the first international route operate safely and accumulating experience," Guo said. "Only after establishing overseas safety operation and maintenance standards should the C919 move from one route to multiple routes.郭佳称：“当下首要任务是完成从0到1的突破，保障首条国际航线安全运行、沉淀实操经验。只有建立成熟的境外安全运营与维修标准后，C919才能从单条航线拓展至多条国际航线。”"Airworthiness certification is indeed one of the biggest barriers for the C919 entering mainstream European and US markets," Zhu said.朱克力表示：“适航认证，确实是C919进入欧美主流市场最大阻碍之一。”He said certification by authorities such as the European Union Aviation Safety Agency and the US Federal Aviation Administration would be essential, while airlines' familiarity with the aircraft, maintenance networks, leasing systems and market recognition would also influence adoption.他表示，获取欧盟航空安全局、美国联邦航空管理局等机构的适航认证至关重要；同时航司对机型的熟悉度、全球维修网络、飞机租赁体系以及市场认可度，都会影响各国引进该机的意愿。narrowbody /ˈnærəʊbɒdi/窄体客机airworthiness /ˈeəwɜːðinəs/适航性certification /ˌsɜːtɪfɪˈkeɪʃn/认证infrastructure /ˈɪnfrəstrʌktʃə(r)/基础设施short-haul /ˌʃɔːt ˈhɔːl/短途的maintenance /ˈmeɪntənəns/维修，维护

China's domestically developed large passenger aircraft, the C919, will begin its international service on Aug. 12. The route operated by Air China will connect Beijing and Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mongolia, with one round-trip flight per day.

Aujourd'hui nous plongeons au cœur d'une bataille géopolitique et commerciale majeure qui secoue le monde de l'aviation. Elle oppose l'Union européenne à la Chine, avec pour principale victime collatérale le géant européen Airbus. Je vous explique.Si Pékin a récemment pris la décision de bloquer l'homologation de plusieurs types d'avions Airbus sur son territoire, c'est pour mettre la pression ! En effet la Chine reproche à l'Agence européenne de la sécurité aérienne de faire traîner excessivement, depuis des années, l'autorisation de vol de son propre fleuron technologique : le C919, un avion de ligne moyen-courrier conçu par le constructeur étatique chinois Comac.Il faut dire que cet avion a été développé pour briser le duopole mondial d'Airbus et de Boeing. Cependant, pour être vendu et exploité massivement à l'international, il a impérativement besoin de la certification des autorités occidentales, notamment européenne. Et jugeant que l'Europe fait preuve de protectionnisme en retardant cette homologation, la Chine applique la stricte règle de la réciprocité en gelant les certifications d'Airbus.Or cette situation est un coup dur pour l'avionneur européen. La Chine représente l'un des marchés les plus dynamiques et stratégiques du Globe. Ce blocage administratif empêche les livraisons d'appareils pourtant prêts, ce qui commence à plomber sévèrement les comptes d'Airbus. Et les retards de livraison se traduisent immédiatement par des manques à gagner financiers massifs, car c'est au moment de la livraison effective que les compagnies aériennes règlent la majeure partie de la facture.Donc en conclusion, cet affrontement illustre parfaitement comment l'aéronautique reste un instrument d'influence étatique. Airbus se retrouve pris en otage d'un bras de fer réglementaire où la Chine est prête à pénaliser les flux commerciaux pour forcer l'Europe à ouvrir ses portes au Comac C919. Hébergé par Acast.

China agreeing to purchase 200 aircraft from Boeing is expected to bolster commercial ties between China and the United States, especially in the aviation sector, as industry analysts said the agreement represents a partial easing of strained industrial ties after nearly a decade.The Ministry of Commerce announced on Wednesday that China will purchase 200 Boeing aircraft "in accordance with its air transport development needs and on commercial principles", responding to a question regarding US President Donald Trump's recent remarks on the deal.An official from the ministry said that aviation is a key sector for mutually beneficial and win-win cooperation between the two countries.The US will also guarantee sufficient supplies of engines and spare parts for Chinese operators, according to a statement published on the ministry's website.The comments came days after Boeing said that it had made progress in reopening the Chinese market during Trump's state visit to Beijing, where he was accompanied by a delegation of senior US business executives, including Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg."We had a very successful trip to China and accomplished our major goal of reopening the China market to orders for Boeing aircraft," Boeing said in a statement to China Daily.If finalized, the deal would mark Boeing's first major aircraft commitment from China in nearly a decade. The last major deal came during Trump's previous visit to China in 2017, when Chinese buyers signed agreements for 300 Boeing aircraft worth more than $37 billion.Since then, Boeing has struggled to secure large orders from Chinese airlines amid geopolitical tensions and the grounding of the Boeing 737 MAX after two fatal crashes in 2018 and 2019.China was once one of Boeing's most important overseas markets, with Chinese airlines accounting for roughly a quarter of the company's global deliveries before 2019. But the US manufacturer's presence has since weakened sharply as European rival Airbus expanded its footprint in China.Airbus now holds roughly 55 percent of China's commercial aircraft market and has secured multiple large orders from Chinese carriers, including hundreds of Airbus A320neo family aircraft."Aviation has traditionally been a key link in China-US economic relations, and aircraft orders often serve as a barometer of bilateral ties," said Zhu Keli, founding director of the China Institute of New Economy.The Boeing commitment signals a shift toward more pragmatic engagement, with both sides returning to cooperation based on commercial interests, Zhu said."It shows that the global aviation supply chain remains deeply interconnected," he said. "High-end manufacturing such as commercial aircraft is difficult to separate from the global division of labor."For China, the move also signals continued openness and commitment to maintaining stable global industrial supply chains, Zhu added, while for the US, it reflects recognition of the importance of the Chinese market.Beyond geopolitics, analysts said the proposed purchase also addresses the pressing operational needs of Chinese airlines.Over the past nine years, Airbus has steadily expanded its dominance in China, leaving airlines increasingly dependent on a single supplier. Reintroducing Boeing aircraft into the market could help rebalance the supply structure and improve resilience, Zhu said.At the same time, Chinese airlines are facing aging fleets and strong demand for capacity growth, while production of the domestically developed C919 by the Commercial Aircraft Corp of China is still ramping up and Airbus order backlogs remain long."In that context, 200 Boeing aircraft could help fill near-term capacity gaps and ensure stable operations on major routes," Zhu said.US commitments to ensure supplies of engines and components could also ease maintenance pressures for airlines and reduce operational risks, he added.However, Zhu cautioned that the deal represents only a partial thaw rather than a full recovery in China-US aviation cooperation.While aircraft purchases and supply chains may expand, barriers remain in areas such as airworthiness certification, core technology sharing and deeper industrial integration. In particular, certification of the C919 by Western regulators remains a key hurdle, highlighting continued technological competition between the two countries, he added.Zhu said that future cooperation is likely to follow a pattern of "strong commercial cooperation but cautious technological engagement", as sensitive technologies such as aircraft engines and advanced avionics remain tightly controlled.Both Boeing and Airbus expect China to become the world's largest aviation market by around 2043, with a commercial fleet of roughly 9,000 to 10,000 aircraft.strained industrial ties /streɪnd ɪnˈdʌstriəl taɪz/紧张的产业关系spare parts /speə pɑːts/零部件grounding /ˈɡraʊndɪŋ/停飞barometer /bəˈrɒmɪtə/晴雨表，指标capacity gap /kəˈpæsəti ɡæp/运力缺口ramp up /ræmp ʌp/提升产能，加速order backlog /ˈɔːdə ˈbæklɒɡ/积压订单partial thaw /ˈpɑːʃəl θɔː/局部解冻airworthiness certification /ˈeəwɜːðinəs ˌsɜːtɪfɪˈkeɪʃən/适航认证avionics /ˌeɪviˈɒnɪks/航空电子系统

Pensioenuitvoerders verwachten dat de deadline voor de overgang naar het nieuwe pensioenstelsel niet haalbaar is. De fondsen hebben in principe tot 1 januari 2028 de tijd om over te gaan naar het nieuwe stelsel. Maar onder meer IT- en softwareproblemen zorgen voor veel vertraging. Alle pensioenuitvoeringsorganisaties verwachten nu dat de datum naar achteren geschoven moet worden.

Kia ora,Welcome to Friday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news the New Zealand dollar has been re-rated sharply lower overnight, although to be fair only back to levels it was at in April. US benchmark interest rates are rising but the new weaker New Zealand economy is expected to drive the OCR lower than earlier expected.But first in the US, initial jobless claims came in lower than expected at +194,500, a decrease of 10,400 from the prior week when an increase of about that was indicated by seasonal factors. There are now 1.75 mln people on these benefits, +81,000 more than at this time last year.Meanwhile, the Conference Board Leading Economic Index (LEI) retreated in August. A retreat was expected but it came in more than twice the expected decline. That means the LEI fell by -2.8% over the six months between February and August, a faster rate of decline than its -0.9% contraction over the previous six-month period. They noted persistently weak manufacturing new order levels and consumer expectations, and warn of increased headwinds ahead.But it is not weak everywhere. The Philly Fed factory survey for September picked up a modest rise in new orders. But firms in the region remain under sharp price pressure unable to pass on the higher prices they are paying.On the farm, the giant American soybean crop is about ready for harvest, and farmers are glum. The Chinese aren't buying and the Washington isn't coming to the rescue with subsidy support. Prices are back to 2016-2018 levels and the rural concern is palpable.In Financial markets, there was a notable less well-supported US Treasury inflation protected (TIPS) bond tender today that resulted in a median yield of 1.65% plus CPI inflation, compared to 1.93% plus CPI at the prior equivalent event three months ago.There were more central bank rate reviews overnight. Taiwan kept its policy rate unchanged at 2.0%. They have an inflation target of 2.0% and their CPI is currently running at 1.6%. Norway cut theirs by -25 bps to 4.0% in what has been called a "hawkish cut". They have inflation at 3.0% with their target at 2.0%. And the Bank of England held theirs at 4% as expected. They have inflation at inflation at 3.8% when their target is 2%. South Africa held at 7%. Inflation there is 3.3% with a preferred rate of 3.0%.China announced that its Boeing and Airbus-competing C919 aircraft has now received more than 1000 orders, mostly domestic but some international orders as well.Australian labour markets stumbled somewhat in August, falling -5,400 when a small +22,000 rise was expected. And the detail is even less positive because full-time employment fell by -40,900 to 10,077,300 people while part-time employment rose by +35,500 to 4,549,200 people. None of these changes were enough to materially change their 4.2% unemployment rate.Container freight rates fell -6% last week from the prior week with all the weakness coming from outbound rates from China. But bulk freight rates rose +3.4% last week to be +14.6% higher than year ago levels.The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.11%, up +4 bps from yesterday at this time in a steady rise. The price of gold will start today at US$3,643/oz, down -US$15 from yesterday's post Fed dip.American oil prices are down -US$1 at just under US$63.50/bbl, with the international Brent price firmish just under US$67.50/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is at just on 58.8 USc and down -90 bps from yesterday. Against the Aussie we are down -70 bps at 88.9 AUc. Against the euro we are down -50 bps at 49.9 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just under 66, down -50 bps from yesterday.The bitcoin price starts today at US$117,553 and up +1.3% from this time yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has again been modest at just on +/- 1.2%.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston. And we will do this again on Monday.

欢迎收听雪球出品的财经有深度，雪球，国内领先的集投资交流交易一体的综合财富管理平台，聪明的投资者都在这里。今天分享的内容叫中国航空公司的商业模式为什么与众不同？来自家庭主夫的笔记。在全球航空版图里，中国航空公司既要满足全球第二大航空市场每年 7 亿多人次的出行需求，又被赋予保障国家战略与产业升级的公共任务。这种双重角色决定了它在所有权、收入结构、价格机制乃至产业链延伸上的独特面貌。三大航仍由国资委中央汇金绝对控股，地方航也大多带有政府影子股东。这与欧美航司以机构投资者、退休基金等分散持股的格局迥异。撤侨包机、援非抗疫、一带一路新航线、甚至国产大飞机C919示范首航，都是行政任务先于盈利考量。谁来买单三大航客运票价占航空运输收入的 96%，2024 年经济舱平均票价约767元，且受基准价±25%上限管制，且有发达的高铁竞争，航司只能通过特价促销而难以上浮提价。而美国三大航客运票价占航空运输收入65%，靠卖里程、行李费、优选座、联名卡、常旅客等服务平滑周期，这些不起眼的附加服务每年能带来250亿美元的高毛利收入。特价机票只是美国航空公司的引流产品。达美航空2024年更是玩出了新高度，57%的营收来自"高端舱位+会员忠诚度"体系。谁来补贴航空公司在中国是可以带动经济的公共服务，实行以干养支、以大带小的模式。中央财政2025 年仅民航发展基金预算就达 431.25 亿元，用于中小机场、支线航线和安全能力建设等多重补贴，而美国对偏远航点的Essential Air Service全年联邦支出只有约 4.5 亿美元，规模不足中国的十分之一。再看航司有多依赖这笔钱。以2024年为例，南方航空拿到政府补贴33.01亿元，虽然只占1740亿元总营收的不到2%，但公司当年净亏17.69亿元——没有这笔补贴，亏损就会翻倍到50亿级别。东方航空的补贴收入9.95亿元，占1320亿元营收的比例更是微不足道的0.75%，但正是这笔钱，把52亿的亏损硬生生压到了42亿，减少了近五分之一。2014-2023年，三大航累计拿到各类补贴约1111亿元，平均每年110亿。这是什么概念？相当于一家大型航司在疫情前最好年份的全年净利润。中国航司的日子本来就不好过：票价被基准价±25%的天花板压着，高铁在800公里内的航线上疯狂抢客，燃油价格和汇率像过山车，正常年份的净利率只有1-3%。盈亏往往就在十几亿的刀刃上走钢丝，补贴虽然只占营收1%，却往往决定了是赚是赔。像华夏航空这样完全依赖支线补贴的区域航企，没有补贴就没有利润，甚至连生存都成问题。中国航空公司承担着巨大的社会责任，支撑着二三线城市乃至偏远地区的公共航空服务，在这个动辄百亿投资、利润却薄如刀片的行业里，赚的就是补贴钱。辅营收入在欧美航空市场，全服务航司和低成本航司早就各占山头。低成本航司已经拿下了三分之一的天下——美国国内航班座位份额约34%，全球平均35%。中国还是全服务航司一家独大的局面。我回国的时候非常喜欢这一点，加拿大航空北美航线今年开始如果买basic eco的票连登机箱额度都没有，中国几百元的经济舱票不仅有20KG托运行李额，还有登机箱额度和餐饮服务。国外托运一个登机箱的钱快赶上一张中国境内机票钱了。低成本航司意味着高辅营收入。2024年低成本航司的市场份额只有11.1%。即便是最会赚钱的春秋航空，辅营收入占比也才5.1%。三大航的人均辅营收入只有2-3美元，而全球平均水平已经达到27.6美元。中国很多机场甚至补贴免费中转住宿，这在美国是不可能的，贵宾厅很多晚上也不开，只能去住美国机场旁边的大车店动辄 200-300 美元一晚。还是那句话，中国航空公司是拉动经济的公共服务，目前并不愿意赚太多辅营收入。即使是从前作为廉航的祥鹏航空现在也恢复了全服务。春秋航空是个另类，作为中国低成本航空的开山鼻祖，这家北亚最大的廉航把单一机型+高上座率的套路玩到了极致。截至2025年7月，春秋的机队清一色都是空客A320系列，维护成本低，133架飞机平均机龄不到8年，每架飞机日利用率保持在8小时以上——这意味着飞机几乎没有闲着的时候，每一分钟都在创造价值。当三大航还在亏损泥潭里挣扎时，春秋却在闷声发大财。靠着灵活定价、能收费的绝不免费的附加服务策略，再加上与旅游渠道的深度捆绑，春秋航空成了中国航空业的一股清流，也成了业界公认的低成本模式教科书。国内航线保本、国际航线提供利润弹性，未来几年加大投入国际航线想必能带来利润增量。两舱收入在全球航空业，两舱客人是典型的人少钱多——只占5%的座位，却贡献了20%的收入。达美航空2024年财报显示，高端舱位+会员忠诚度板块合计贡献了57%的总营收，两舱票价涨幅比经济舱高出6个百分点，已经完全恢复到疫情前水平。在中国两舱还是个小透明。以国航为例，疫情前的2017年两舱收入131.1亿元，只占当年1218亿元总营收的一成出头。即便到了2024年，三大航在财报里提到两舱业务时，也只是轻描淡写地说调整价格梯度、确保收益提升，真实收入占比依然徘徊在15%以下。去年从纽约飞北京，波音747飞16个半小时没有WiFi，头等舱、商务舱也没有，而卡塔尔航空已经在一些航线配备了星链，全飞机乘客都可以免费使用，能直接在飞机上开视频会议。两舱收入并不是中国航空公司重视的业务。中国国内航线以窄体机为主，平均飞行时间短，两舱座位本来就少。更要命的是，公商务差旅还被政府采购标准和预算限制死死卡住，想花钱坐头等舱要先过财务这一关。而欧美航司坐拥跨洋长航线的天然优势，再加上灵活的企业合同和信用卡积分体系，早就把两舱玩成了高价座位+金融产品的复合赚钱机器。国泰航空的两舱服务应该是两岸三地大型航空公司里做的最好的，虽然头等舱与商务舱只占整体座位约7-8%，2019年这两舱仍贡献了约四分之一的客运收入，全年乘坐率保持在 75% 以上。为锁定这部分高利润旅客，公司正在给777-300ER机队换装全新的Aria Suite商务舱，头等舱也一并翻新。这套新产品刚拿下2024年红点设计奖和德国设计金奖。国泰航空在地面的贵宾厅也同样无人能及，再加上香港的战略位置，也可以高看一眼。

Impacts from the trade war with China are landing at Boeing and in U.S. aviation more broadly. Due to high tariffs, Chinese airlines are declining to take deliveries of Boeing aircraft — as many as 50 planes destined for China this year will need to be re-marketed to new buyers. But that's just the beginning of it, as Jon Ostrower explains. China's long-term goal is to be self-sufficient in aerospace, with projects like the C919 and C929. As the geopolitical winds shift, it may look to Embraer as a potential partner rather than Boeing and Airbus.We would like to thank Plusgrade and Rokt for supporting The Air Show.Visit www.theairshowpodcast.com to get in touch with us.

China's domestically developed passenger aircraft, the C919, successfully completed its maiden flight from Shanghai to Hong Kong on New Year's Day, marking the jetliner's first commercial operation beyond the Chinese mainland.2025年1月1日，新年第一天，中国自主研发的客机C919顺利完成从上海至香港的首航之旅，标志着该喷气式客机在中国大陆以外的首次商业飞行。China Eastern Airlines' Flight MU721, carrying 157 passengers, took off from Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport at 8:21 am on Wednesday and arrived at Hong Kong International Airport at 10:44 am, marking the inauguration of the route operating this aircraft.1月1日上午8点21分，中国东方航空MU721航班搭载157名乘客，从上海虹桥国际机场起飞，于上午10点44分抵达香港国际机场，标志着该航线正式启用C919客机执飞。Wan Xiangdong, head of the Civil Aviation Administration of China's East China Regional Administration, said that every achievement made by the C919 has clearly proved China's capability in science and technology.中国民用航空局华东地区管理局局长万向东表示，C919取得的每一项成就都充分证明了中国的科技实力。The launch of a Shanghai-Hong Kong direct flight using the C919 will "further accumulate valuable experience" for the aircraft's commercial operation, "laying a solid foundation for the jetliner to tap into the broader international market", Wan said.万向东指出，开通C919执飞的上海至香港直飞航班将为该客机的商业运营“进一步积累宝贵经验”、“为喷气式客机进军更广阔的国际市场奠定坚实基础”。Liu Tiexiang, general manager of China Eastern Air Holding Co, said the flight has opened a new chapter in the high-quality development of the nation's self-developed passenger aircraft.中国东方航空集团有限公司总经理刘铁祥表示，此次航班开启了国家自主研发客机高质量发展的新篇章。"Sharing similar cultures, Shanghai and Hong Kong are both international centers for finance, trade and shipping. The two cities have a long history of exchanges and economic cooperation. The new daily flight of the C919 is expected to better showcase China's capability in manufacturing and services by offering more diversified travel options," Liu said.刘铁祥说：“上海和香港有着相似的文化，又都是国际金融、贸易和航运中心。两座城市在文化交流和经贸合作方面历史悠久。C919新增的每日航班将为旅客提供更多样化的出行选择，更好地展现中国在制造和服务方面的能力。”Since the aircraft's maiden commercial flight on May 28, 2023, China Eastern's C919 fleet has conducted more than 6,600 commercial flights and completed close to 1 million passenger trips, Liu added.刘铁祥补充道，中国东航C919机队自2023年5月28日执行首次商业飞行以来，累计执飞商业航班超6600次，累计承运旅客人数近100万人次。Mable Chan, Hong Kong's secretary for transport and logistics, said: "As the C919 achieved one milestone after another, we hoped that one day it would be used for regular flights to Hong Kong. Today, that dream of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region government has finally come true."香港运输及物流局局长陈美宝表示：“随着C919完成一个又一个里程碑，我们希望有朝一日它能来到香港提供定期航班。香港特区政府的愿景在今日终于能够达成。”As China's first trunk jetliner designed in accordance with international standards, the C919 started its commercial operation in May 2023 and it flew over the scenic Victoria Harbor in Hong Kong in December the same year.作为中国首款按照国际标准设计的喷气式干线客机，C919于2023年5月启动商业运营，并于同年12月飞越了风景秀丽的香港维多利亚港。Lin Zhijie, an aviation industry analyst, said the aircraft's commercial launch between Shanghai and Hong Kong will help it accumulate experience for further overseas use, which in turn will allow more passengers to experience China's self-developed jetliner.航空业分析师林智杰表示，C919在上海和香港之间的商业运营将为其进一步海外运营积累经验，从而让更多乘客体验中国自主研发的喷气式客机。Lin, who is also a columnist for China's civil aviation website Carnoc.com, said the operation record of the C919 shows the aircraft performs well and is safe, adding that more efforts should be made to further enhance its operational reliability.林智杰也是中国民航资源网（Carnoc.com）的专栏作家，他表示，C919的运营记录显示该客机性能良好且安全，并补充说应进一步努力提高其运营可靠性。Guo Jia, a civil aviation expert and a professor at Guangdong University of Foreign Studies' South China Business College, said that existing operation data shows the stability of the aircraft and it is only a matter of time before the C919 is used for more overseas commercial flights. "The maiden flight to Hong Kong was a business decision, but it has also demonstrated the growing enthusiasm of Hong Kong's people to travel onboard a Chinese-made aircraft," Guo said.民航专家、广东外语外贸大学南国商学院教授郭佳表示，现有的运营数据表明该客机运行稳定，C919用于更多海外商业航班只是时间问题。“首飞香港是一个商业决策，但也表明了香港民众对搭乘中国制造的飞机出行的热情日益高涨，”郭佳说。Jia Shun, a Shanghai resident visiting Hong Kong with his wife, said on Wednesday, after checking in at the airport, that he was very excited to learn that they would board the C919 aircraft. "We are looking forward to the plane's interior design and the overall travel experience, which I believe will be exceptional," Jia said.1月1日，上海居民贾顺与妻子一起前往香港，在机场办理登机手续后表示，他非常激动自己将搭乘C919客机。“我们很期待飞机的内饰设计和全程旅行体验，我相信这会是一次非凡的经历，”贾顺说。Huang Jian, another passenger traveling to Hong Kong with seven members of his family, said: "I had always wanted to travel on board the C919 and my dream has come true. Taking the plane on the first day of 2025 is double happiness for our family."另一位乘客黄建带着一家七口前往香港旅游，他表示：“我一直想搭乘C919，现在梦想成真了。在2025年的第一天搭乘这架飞机，对我们全家来说是双重喜悦。”China Eastern, the first global customer of the C919, has purchased 105 of these aircraft from the manufacturer, Commercial Aircraft Corp of China, and received its 10th jetliner on Tuesday. The Shanghai-based airline currently operates the largest C919 fleet globally.作为C919的全球首发客户，中国东方航空已从制造商中国商用飞机有限责任公司购买了105架该客机，并于12月31日接收了第10架。这家总部位于上海的航空公司目前运营着全球最大的C919机队。Wednesday's flight made Hong Kong the ninth city where China Eastern is operating the C919 after Shanghai, Beijing, Chongqing, Chengdu in Sichuan province, Xi'an in Shaanxi province, Guangzhou in Guangdong province, Taiyuan in Shanxi province and Wuhan in Hubei province.1月1日的航班让香港成为东航C919执飞的第九座城市，其它城市为上海、北京、重庆、四川成都、陕西西安、广东广州、山西太原和湖北武汉。maidenadj.首次的，初次的columnistn.（报纸、杂志的）专栏作家

China's C919 jetliner has completed a flight from Sichuan Province to Xizang region in the southwest. The C919 will now conduct flights to test systems that are critical for high-altitude operations.

China's large passenger aircraft has transported over 500,000 people since it went into commercial operations in May last year.

The Joby hydrogen-electric eVTOL 523-mile flight, severe weather and the Southwest Dutch Roll, the danger of getting too close to an operating jet engine, excessive heat impacts on aviation, exploding soda cans that injure flight attendants, and turbulence and hot tea water burns. Aviation News Joby Aviation completes a 523-mile flight in an eVTOL powered by hydrogen-electric tech Joby Aviation, Inc. announced it has successfully flown a liquid hydrogen-electric eVTOL  demonstrator 523 miles over California. The aircraft was based on a Joby pre-production prototype battery-electric aircraft fitted with a liquid hydrogen fuel tank and fuel cell system. Joby Aviation photo. The liquid hydrogen fuel tank was designed and built by Joby. It stores up to 40 kilograms of liquid hydrogen which feeds the fuel cell system that produces electricity, water, and heat. The electricity powers six electric motors on the Joby aircraft. Batteries provide additional power primarily during take-off and landing. Joby plans to start commercial operations as soon as 2025 with its battery-electric air taxi.

The company has a 6-year backlog of A320 family aircraft and is struggling to get production to the rate they desire. Aircraft owners who need narrowbody aircraft sooner are likely to look at Boeing and COMAC. So Airbus is seeking to focus its activity on an “improvement program,” although it may be years before the C919 is certified by Western regulators. For years, COMAC, the Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China, has worked to establish a viable Chinese commercial airframer. They started with the ARJ21 regional jet and then proceeded to develop the C919 narrowbody in the B737/A320 class. Lately, they've been working on a C929 widebody jetliner. A Southwest jet that did a ‘Dutch roll' was parked outside during a severe storm Investigators looking at the Southwest Airlines Boeing 737 Max that experienced a Dutch roll say the plane had been parked outside during thunderstorms with wind gusts of up to 84 mph. After some routine maintenance, the pilots experienced “odd movements of the rudder pedals.” The NTSB hasn't determined when the observed tail damage occurred. The speculation is that the tail damage occurred during the storm when the rudder slammed back and forth in the wind. Safety consultant John Cox, a former airline pilot, said “I do not see this as a Max issue. I do not see this right now as a 737 issue. I see this as a one-off.” Airport Ground Worker Killed After Getting Sucked Into Engine of Boeing 737 When They Stepped Into the ‘Danger Zone' The accident happened in Iran during routine maintenance when the engines were powered for a test run. The worker was trying to retrieve a tool left near the engine. As extreme heat bakes the West, emergency helicopters struggle to fly Medical helicopter flights have been canceled in some areas due to high temperatures. Air temperature and tarmac temperature can be factors. Also, a confined area can require more engine power to land, which is affected by high temperatures. Amid Oppressive Heat, Broiling Airplane Cabins Add to Travelers' Woes Unusually hot weather is causing cabin air conditioning systems to struggle to keep up. The Department of Transportation is studying whether to set minimum standards for cabin temperatures.

Episode Notes One of China's largest airlines, China Southern, is buying 100 domestically-built planes – the C919, produced by the state-owned Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China (COMAC). The plane is considered an emerging competitor to Airbus' A320 and the Boeing 737. And Airlines Editor Gordon Smith examines if other airlines will look to buy these Chinese-built aircraft. Just last week, Air China signed a similar agreement with COMAC for 100 C919 jets. The bigger question is if international carriers will be tempted to buy.  Christian Scherer, the CEO of Airbus' commercial aircraft division, has said the C919 “isn't going to rock the boat.” However, one Boeing executive said the planemaker is factoring in competition from the C919 in its long-term forecast.  Next, TUI CEO Sebastian Ebel believes recent protests in the Canary Islands against mass tourism aren't about the industry itself. He says residents are angry about a shortage of housing, writes Travel Experiences Reporter Jesse Chase-Lubitz.  Protestors are calling on authorities to limit tourist arrivals to ease pressure on the environment, infrastructure and housing supply. Chase-Lubitz notes many Canary Islands residents argue that mass tourism is pricing them out of their homes.  However, Ebel said the unregulated online booking platforms are the reason housing prices have gone up — not tourism as a whole. Ebel blamed individual trips, which include people booking local apartments, for causing more housing to be offered as holiday accommodation.   Finally, columnist Colin Nagy argues the ideals of luxury hospitality have been distorted so much that guests are struggling to understand reality: Great properties don't get the attention they deserve, and others serve up superficial goods but fail to deliver. He looks at the problems and suggests ways to fix them.  Nagy cites the decline of travel media as one area of concern, noting he believes thoughtful, unbiased commentary on hotels is disappearing. He lists writers and publications worth reading. Nagy also writes that luxury offerings all look the same, and urges readers to support brands carving out unique spaces.   Producer/Presenter: Jose Marmolejos

From Changi's statistical milestone to a festive travel renaissance and Taylor Diplomacy to Thailand's 'Tourism Salesman'. As  the end of Q1 2024 draws near, we move towards another major milestone. Nearly two years ago, on 1 April 2022, South East Asia began to fully reopen after the dark days of the pandemic. So, how has the first quarter of 2024 panned out, and what were the key takeaways? This week, Gary and Hannah assess the Top 8 travel and tourism talking points from throughout the region in the first three months of 2024. En route, we discuss the debut of China's C919 aircraft in ASEAN, the Thai PM's tourism pitch at ITB Berlin and higher passenger service charges in Malaysia. Plus, we look at AirAsia's plan to launch new airlines in Singapore and Vietnam and its parent company's goal of listing on the Nasdaq later this year. And we garnish each talking point with the region's latest travel statistics.
