Since its first test flight in 2017, the C919 aircraft has attracted worldwide attention. The C919 aircraft is considered a new rival to Boeing and Airbus. So far, Egypt, Puerto Rico, Indonesia, Laos and other countries have signed agreements to purchase C919 aircraft, and the number of pre-orders for C919 aircraft has exceeded 1,000. However, it is unbelievable that last week, Capital Aviation Services, a subsidiary of General Electric of the United States, directly ordered 20 C919 large passenger aircraft from China, with a total value of 2.2 billion US dollars. Strangely, Boeing and Airbus aircraft are better than China's C919 aircraft, both in terms of experience and technology. Moreover, many semiconductor parts in China are imported from the United States, and even the C919 engine is based on Airbus' A320. So why do American companies spend huge sums of money to buy China's C919 jumbo airliner?
