Chengdu aviation, which is scheduled for November 28 in the first ARJ21-700 aircraft. According to media reports, the ARJ21 is expected in 2015, Chengdu aviation, delivered the first user of the year, first flight is expected to fly to Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu and other popular routes.

The ARJ21 aircraft, 106 registered, meaning that this first official passenger jet regional jet distance running a step closer.
Chengdu Airlines said, since this is the first time for the domestic airplane, "three cards" and different from previous imports of aircraft, related Department in understanding the relevant civil aviation regulations are in the process of applying for a job, ensure that before the aircraft delivery store it in 106 of the cockpit.
On November 28 this year, China Chengdu airlines, aircraft and are of great significance. This day in 2008, the first ARJ21 aircraft made its maiden flight. 7 years after November 28, 2015, Chengdu airlines will receive the first aircraft ARJ21-700 aircraft, then was put into operation.
As a ARJ21-700 the first user, Chengdu aviation is now redoubling its efforts to carry out the staging and additional run certification preparation. According to Chengdu air introduction: there are 54 crew, 25 crew, 38 licensed dispatcher, 8 loading personnel access to the relevant Security qualifications. For nearly two months, the company continued to send 50 flight attendants completed transfer model training. These personnel, can fully meet the needs of 5 ARJ21 aircraft. The follow-up, the professional will also continue to deploy additional officers to complete relevant training, to run more of the ARJ21 aircraft reserve personnel.
Why is it Chengdu airlines
ARJ21, China's first turbofan developed according to international airworthiness standards-Jet regional jet, is a completely independent intellectual property rights of "made in China".
In 2002 project, first flight in 2008, 2014 at the end of evidence, more than 10 years in the past, ARJ21 will finally usher in passenger-carrying operations.
It goes without saying that the significance of China aviation industry, its smooth operation and maintenance of good flying record, before the formal line of homemade large passenger jet C919, China plays an important role in the future, will even affect domestic dual-channel aircraft C929 already planned in the future.
Such an important mission, and why falling on the Chengdu air instead of Air China, China Eastern Airlines, China Southern Airlines and other big three airlines or Hainan Airlines and Xiamen airlines, Sichuan Airlines fleet are more than 100 veteran airlines?
According to the large aircraft magazine reported, Chengdu aviation was founded in the beginning of 2010, formerly known as United Eagle airlines. United Eagle Airlines is China's first approved by the civil aviation authority to build private air transport enterprises, Sichuan Airlines merger in 2009 after being transformed into State-owned airlines.
At this point, was established in May 2008 of COMAC's nationwide search for ARJ21-700 aircraft launching user. Because of the regional aircraft market in China is mainly composed of Boeing, Airbus, BA aerospace, Bombardier and other foreign brand share, competition is very fierce, and ARJ21-700 aircraft has just started, visibility and reputation in the public are lacking, as ARJ21-700 aircraft launching user airlines, must not only bear the flight safety and operational risk in marketing, have to cover the huge upfront investment. These difficulties, many want to "the first person to eat crabs" airlines will have to weigh.
On July 8, 2009, Sichuan Airlines Chairman Lan Xinguo to COMAC when company Chairman Zhang Qingwei wrote a letter: "aviation and transport businesses is a vision of big industrial chain, we must with great courage, wisdom and vision. To be done well, targeting domestic-West-extension-network-large aircraft. "
This way of thinking coincides with COMAC. Chengdu is an important aviation industry base, has a large number of aviation manufacturing enterprises and research institutes, making f-10, f- -20 and other modern aircraft, ARJ21 and C919 aircraft nose is manufactured by AVIC into a flying machine.
In addition, mainland China's civil aviation year volume IV of Chengdu city, also has to create "Chengdu Airlines" the ideas of the new cards in this city. Use this as an opportunity, COMAC, Sichuan Airlines Group, joint investment to restructure United Eagle airlines in Chengdu city, Chengdu aviation, established in January 2010.
Spring of 2015, Chengdu airlines domestic aircraft programs Tong Xiaoming, Deputy General Manager of the Department that, Chengdu aviation as the startup user, once opened the ARJ21 planes fly routes, will be subject to much attention, "Star models, Star route, is a great boon for airlines. "
According to Tong Xiaoming introduces, as early as 2010, Chengdu Aviation began to step in manufacture of ARJ21 aircraft. At that time, the ARJ21 aircraft is still in an experimental test flight, part of the eventual closure of the development has not been, Chengdu aviation made a number of observations, eventually accepted by the China commercial aircraft company.
Why fly Shanghai-Chengdu, Beijing-Chengdu and other popular routes
ARJ21 is China's first independently designed and developed according to international airworthiness standard Jet regional jet, its operation will cause concern around the world, so for operation route selection must err.
Chengdu aviation market Marketing Center head told big aircraft magazine, for do route select plans, Chengdu aviation market Marketing Center do has large of market research and times data analysis and the returns forecast, in integrated consider route of security, and guarantees, and brand publicity and model sex effect of based Shang, proposed ARJ21 aircraft in operation early should main select domestic political, and economic influence big of city (company has opened route priority), to upgrade models of brand effect, and from selection traffic high, and Market potential, model sensitivity optimization of low tourist route arrangement operations, maximize the benefits of ARJ21 aircraft, routes reflect the good performance of ARJ21 aircraft, improve market acceptance and brand influence of the ARJ21 aircraft.
At present, over Chengdu Airlines has opened more than 50 routes, in which the larger political and economic influence of the cities are Shanghai, Tianjin, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, and "high traffic, great market potential, low model sensitivity optimization of tourist routes" to Sanya, Chengdu, Haikou, Xiamen, Qingdao, Xishuangbanna, Lijiang, and so on.
It can be assumed that ARJ21-700 aircraft in the demonstration route will be selected from the above route. The Chengdu business daily also reported that the ARJ21 aircraft to Chengdu, Chengdu air's first flight is expected to be in Beijing, Shanghai and other major cities. Four in one from a Standing Committee of the Party
Civil aviation in mainland China's busiest routes, flights to Beijing, Chengdu ranked among the top three for a long time, Chengdu-Shanghai route is also ranked among the top ten for a long time.
Chengdu air service management centre head Kang Ho, said, although the ARJ21-700 planes fly routes not yet finalized, but airline and airport in Chengdu to strengthen contacts, "we have a presence at 7 airfields in the station staff specifically responsible for matters related to the coordination and the ARJ21 aircraft, as long as the routes identified, related services will start immediately. "
In 2014, Chengdu aviation offered to become "one of China's major low cost airlines." Chengdu Aero-head of marketing told the journal large aircraft, the ARJ21 aircraft operations will be combined with this strategy. Therefore, the ARJ21 aircraft into operation, measures such as the introduction of low fares to attract passengers.
Future of the ARJ21
ARJ21 aircraft standard range full range of 2220 km, increase the range of full flight 3704 kilometres, their basic-level economic arrangement 90, mixed-level layout 78.
On September 8, 2015, journalists are invited to experience the surging of the ARJ21 aircraft operating flight before, feeling throughout the cabin bright and spacious, Interior simple, from the roof, luggage rack and the element lines looks smooth. Apart from the two rows of four business-class seats, and the remaining 70 economy class seats according to regional traditions "left right" seating, front and rear seating space spacious than ordinary aircraft, aircraft tail a bathroom. Cabin and luggage compartment, height, seat width and pitch are all very comfortable, comparable with the Airbus 320.
Journalists feel the surging close to flight of the ARJ21 and ordinary Boeing and Airbus aircraft, but there are obviously different, several passengers reflects the "back of the airplane engine noise, we talk to each other to raise their voices."
On this, China business fly technicians explained said, and Airbus 320, and Boeing 737, large aircraft "wing hanging" type engine (is will engine hanging in aircraft wing following) different, ARJ21 take of is "tail hanging" way, engine hanging in aircraft tail following, "this hanging way led to engine away from cabin distance more near, cabin Hou Department of passengers feel to engine noise big some. "
Technician says would increase sound insulation material between the plane's rear engine compartment Panel, to solve this problem.
After obtaining the CAAC airworthiness certificate in December 2014, there have been questions about why the ARJ21 has yet to obtain United States Federal Aviation Administration airworthiness certificates, which is important for domestic airliners to enter the international market, "pass."
COMAC technicians responded, ARJ21 aircraft, the work is going as planned, after the China Civil Aviation Administration airworthiness certificate, to apply for United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) airworthiness certificates.
At present, the ARJ21 aircraft has won 19 over more than 300 orders for customers, including the first African user Congo (Brazzaville) 3 orders.
Civil Aviation Authority has previously said, Sichuan, Chengdu aircraft ARJ21 aircraft after delivery, will continue to supervise and inspect the operation, ensure the safety of the ARJ21 aircraft operations.
