COMAC C919
- Thread starter Deino
- Start date
A blurb from AVIC Aircraft Strength Research Institute. Long-term fatigue load testing of C919 is scheduled to last 144,000 cycles, about three times the expected service life of the aircraft. I'm not sure what each cycle is consisted of.
full static test of C919. here is the front view.
As I know, this is a flight that fully complies with civil aviation management and air control, without any command from the test flight establishment.

Uhh... I don't think "slipped on the runway" is quite the translation to go with.
Are these real photos? If so, it looks really neat. I can't verify for sure

A mis-translation of Chinese words 滑行, correct translation should be "taxied on the run way".
real photos ..
It is said that C919 00001-00006 planes gathered at the Pucheng National Civil Aircraft Test Flight Base yesterday.
