Widebody Challenger: The CRAIC CR929 Is Now Under Production

Russia and China have started production of the CRAIC CR929, the joint-venture widebody aircraft which seeks to rival the Boeing and Airbus duopoly. The initial variant, the CR929-600, will have the capacity for around 280 passengers and a range of up to 12,000km (7,500 miles). There will also be a stretched version (CR929-700) and a shorter CR929-500 also on the cards.
