The C919 will be the largest passenger jet to be produced in China and is expected to eventually challenge other global players in the commercial aircraft market. Alcoa and COMAC are examining advanced aluminum structural concepts, designs and alloys to create the C919. . “The C919 will be a showcase for China’s ambition to be more than a low-tech producer of consumer goods for the world,” USA Today reported. less
