The ARJ21-700 won the certification after a series of examinations by the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) using the country's airworthiness
standards.
The ARJ21, short for Advanced Regional Jet for the 21st Century, is a type of regional airliner designed and manufactured by the Commercial Aircraft
Corporation of China (COMAC).
There are 78 seats in a dual-class configuration and 90 seats in a full economy class configuration. Its economic life is designed for 60,000 flying
hours or 20 calendar years.
The first ARJ21-700 jet was designed and manufactured between 2003 and 2007 and made its first test flight in November 2008. Since then, the jet has
completed more than 5 Nike Air VaporMax Plus Women's Light Menta White Blue ,000 hours of test flights.
After the CAAC started the jet's certification process in 2012, a total of 300 ground examinations and more than 1,141 hours of test flights were carried
out, the CAAC said.
Certification is not the end of the process, said Luo Ronghuai, vice president of COMAC and also head of the ARJ21 project.
There must be a period for improving the model's design Nike Air VaporMax Plus Women's Reverse Sunset Barely Grey , systems and operations before its entry into the market, Luo said.
The jet will still need to gain brand recognition and market share in order to be a success, and eventually it must be able to bring profits to the airlines
that use it, he said.
Li Jiaxiang, head of the CAAC, rode the jet from Shanghai to Beijing on Tuesday Nike Air VaporMax Plus Women's Bleached Aqua Black , believing that "the jet can provide no less comfort than any plane I've ever taken."
After the certification, trial operations will be made. It will take at least three years to build systems for commercial operation and management.
The jet currently has 278 orders, COMAC data showed.

Considering the rumors that famed Huangmei Opera singer Ma Lan disappeared from the stage due to demands from her husband Yu Qiuyu, it comes as no surprise
that after publishing a novel centered on a love story, that Yu would inevitably
be swarmed with a ton of questions. Engulfed in a storm of controversies such as
those about the cultural and historical mistakes found in his works, as well as
his relationship with his much-younger wife, Yu hasn't had an easy time over the
years since hitting his peak during the 1990s.
Maintaining a low-profile since these controversies began Nike Air VaporMax Utility Womens , Yu broke his silence at the beginning of this year at a press conference for his new book, Ice River, his first attempt
at a novel that came out at the beginning of this month. Set in ancient China,
the novel centers on a young woman named Meng He and tells the story of how she
broke the shackles of gender at that time to pursue her life and love.
Although he denied that the book is a reflection of him and his wife, in the preface to the book Yu admits that the story is "a result of their tragic
persistence in the face of adversity." Careful readers will notice that there is
also a single photo of the couple in the book. Whether he wanted it or not, Yu's
Ice River is already being taken as a symbolic answer to the controversies
surrounding the couple over the past several years.
Rise and fall
Rising to fame with his personal essays during the late 1990s Off-White x Nike VaporMax Womens , Yu earned the title as China's No.1 modern essayist at the time. His essays such as A Bitter Journey of Culture,
Discovering China, and A Sigh of the Millennium were favorites among many
readers including students in middle and high schools for his poetic language
that he combined with his own personal interpretation of the different
civilizations in the world.
Increasing right alongside his popularity was the number of his appearances at various lectures, on talent show programs, as well as controversies
surrounding his writings and marriage. Some cultural scholars - especially in
Shanghai, where Yu lived - published articles or even full books to point out
the many cultural and historical mistakes that existed in Yu's work and
lectures Nike Air VaporMax Flyknit Womens , while at the same time the media followed up on rumors in order to dig up dirt on his relationship with his wife.

All these disputes even finally came to question the proser's integrity as a writer, since Yu's introduction of himself in his several writings didn't
consist with his history. The intensity and severity of those criticism on Yu
then, is quite similar to the current topic comedy figure Zhao Benshan, forcing
the former to fade out from the public's sight for a while.
A response to criticism
Readers aware of this complicated background will easily sense Yu's anger and response to the controversies around him in his new book. At the conference, Yu
made no attempt to deny the conne
