Great news, a lot of the growth has come from the east. It will be interesting to see if Boeing does something similar to Airbus and now builds a plant in the region?

I’ll update my images to show the location on the map. For 747s, A340s & A380s (and other low, slow departers), there’s a grass verge just east of the Southern Perimeter Road Esso filling station (TW6 3PF) that overlooks T5.
For lighter and more agile aircraft such as the 767, 777 & A330 – you want to be slightly further back from the runway so as to get a better perspective, so I suggest the Oaks Road bridge next to The Rising Sun pub (TW19 7LB). 😉

The two are within easy walking distance of each other.

very promising future in 2013 for c919

I wouldn’t bet on that 🙁

when compare to other rivals

c919 sale = 380
russian mc21 = 248
japanese mrj = 165

Looks impressive, but let’s take a look at the international sales figures;

C919 = 5% of sales to non-Chinese operators
MC-21 = 21% of sales to non-Russian operators
MRJ = 94% of sales to non-Japanese operators

As you can see, the others have broken the international market far better than Comac have.

Having recently got an iPhone, I can relate.

But, on the whole, I find it incredibly smart. If you make a mistake, it changes it to a word whose letter’s are in a similar position on the keyboard.
I could write something completely nonsensical like “Jsoot Virtgsau” and it would correctly change it to “Happy Birthday”.

I think some of those auto-correct errors were deliberately placed.
