The China Commercial Aviation Corporation (COMAC) has confirmed the completion of all flight tests of the C919 narrow-body jet aircraft, which are required to obtain an airworthiness certificate. Flight testing was completed on all six C919 prototypes. Relevant tests have been taking place since 2019 at bases in the cities of Shanghai, Xian, Dongying and Nanchang. Earlier, Chinese media, citing COMAC, reported that the aircraft should be put into commercial operation before the end of the year.
On May 14, the first serial aircraft C919 successfully completed its first test flight in Shanghai. The aircraft, painted in the colors of China Eastern Airlines, took off and landed safely at Shanghai Pudong International Airport. China Eastern Airlines will be the first airline to operate the C919. The corresponding agreement for the purchase of five aircraft was signed between the airline and COMAC in the fall of 2021.
The C919 has been developed by COMAC since 2008. The first sample rolled off the assembly line at the assembly plant in November 2015, and in May 2017 it took to the air for the first time in Shanghai.
The aircraft can be produced in several modifications with different number of seats (from 158 to 190). The average flight range of the C919 is about 4000 km, the maximum is 5500 km, the C919 can fly at an altitude of up to 12,000 m.
To date, COMAC has received orders for 815 C919s from 28 airlines, totaling approximately $75 billion. Of these, 34 aircraft are intended for foreign customers. COMAC predicts that over 40,600 new aircraft will be delivered to the market between 2020 and 2039, totaling about $5.9 trillion. Of these, the volume of deliveries of the Chinese C919 and ARJ21 aircraft developed by the company can be about 732 billion dollars.

It will not be an iPhone 16 Pro Max, but almost a tablet. A well-known insider confirmed the increase in screen sizes in the new iPhone
Well-known Bloomberg journalist and insider Mark Gurman confirmed the recently appeared information that in the iPhone 16 line, each model will have its own screen size.
More specifically, the iPhone 16 Pro should get a 6.3-inch display instead of the usual 6.1 inches, and the iPhone 16 Pro Max display will grow from 6.7 to 6.9 inches. On the one hand, this will make the older model stand out on the market with its impressive dimensions, on the other hand, the iPhone 16 Pro will become more attractive for those for whom 6.1 inches was not enough, and 6.7 inches in Pro Max was already a lot.
Considering that the well-known insider Ming-Chi Kuo also spoke about the increase in older iPhones, there are no particular doubts about such changes in the iPhone. On the other hand, there is still more than a year before the release of this line, which cannot be discounted.
