Is China\u2019s <\/strong>Comac<\/strong> making its way to Nigeria? <\/strong>Nigeria\u2019s Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) is mulling plans to tap Chinese planemaker Comac for its narrow-body C919 jet to power Nigerian carriers\u2019 expansion, NCAA Director General Chris Ona Najomo told Reuters<\/a> on Sunday. NCAA is currently looking into certifying Comac\u2019s C919 jets, and is already in talks with the Chinese manufacturer for a potential leasing agreement \u2014 in which the planemaker has offered maintenance services for any jets operated by Nigerian carriers.<\/p>\n

Th<\/strong>is comes as the Chinese planemaker continues to struggle for a bigger global market <\/strong>share<\/strong> next to the US\u2019 Boeing and European planemaker Airbus<\/strong> \u2014 especially amid local and global headwinds facing the Chinese planemaker. For example, Chinese airlines were reported to be planning orders for Boeing and Airbus aircraft, which will reportedly complicate Comac\u2019s sales of its C919 aircraft \u2014 a model expected to be on par with Boeing\u2019s 737 and Airbus\u2019s A320 narrowbody models. The US also suspended licenses<\/a> that allowed US firms to sell parts and tech services to Comac for its C919 jets. <\/p>\n

But Comac is slowly building a customer base<\/strong>. Air Cambodia inked an MoU with Comac for an order of 10 C909 Comac jets, with an option to acquire 10 more, Reuters<\/a> reported earlier this month. The company also secured agreements to deliver new jets catering to domestic flights in Southeast Asia \u2014 including for Indonesia, Vietnam\u2019s Vietjet, and Laos\u2019 Lao Airlines. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
