🇨🇳 Chinese airlines are eager to buy the C919, but COMAC cannot keep up with production. 📉 In 2025, the plan was for 75 aircraft, but only 15 were delivered. ✈️ The main problem is a shortage of CFM LEAP-1C engines due to US sanctions. 🛠️ China is rushing to develop its own CJ-1000A engine, but this will take time. #COMAC #C919 #Aviation #China #Sanctions
