The main features of the MC21 are the carbon fender and a wider cockpit that allows 2 people to stand in the aisle at the same time. and this is the speed of loading, unloading the aircraft and servicing passengers. Strange that you forgot to mention this. Well, the Russian plane has own engine.

The Russians make very good planes actually.

Russian fuselage and wings have state of the art composite materials in their construction making overall aerodynamics much better than all other competitors. The MC 21 will also use much less fuel than any of the other competitors including Boeing, Airbus and Comac.

With such a huge price difference I think Airbus should be worried. As for the 737, I will never buy an airline ticket for a 737 flight, many people will say that is stupid but the two accidents and the cause of them makes me paranoid about Boeing especially because some experts have said that the 737 is structurally not airworthy and depends on sensors to control and make it fly.

I would say Russia MC21 hold an edge better maybe a mile long with the wider cabin. China play it safe by sticking to A320 specifications. While it will be financially sound as most China airlines won't need to buy extra handling equipment for another type of aircraft. Both A320 and C919 can use the same handling equipments and thus reduce cost. The MC21 will need a different handling equipment however the MC21 has the potential to grow longer and travel further like the A321XLR. With a wider cabin the passenger won't feel claustrophobic!.

I don't think either plane will overtake the aviation industry. I do hope both are successful and provide decades of service. I know that I will be very glad to see more variety beyond the seemingly endless parade of A320 and 737 family planes that currently dominate most airports.

I think russian made mc -21 is much better than any other compared aeroplanes.

Both aircraft have a huge future. Russian MC21 because of the santions from the west, so it has no choice but to use its own aircraft. Perfect for the russian company building it ! Chinas C919 because of a similar situation where chinese companies are reluctant to use foreign technology now with all the USA sanctions on tech. Plus the chinese market is the largest in the world and growing ! Sanctions from the west are actually helping russia and china develop their own industries without competition.

Two great countries, Russia and China, will soon have two nationally manufactured aircraft flying through the skies of the world, a first-rate achievement for both countries, competing with the giants.

Great to see new players in the market and breaking monopolies. Brazil is another player interested in the commercial aviation industry.

Turkish Airlines should start buying its planes from these 2 friendly countries.

MC-21 IS THE BEST 👍👍👍👍👍

Another big aviation market is India and is picking up, since Russia has good relationship with India , they should try selling the MC-21 to Indian airliners. MC-21 and C-919 will break the monopoly of Boeing and Airbus. We need healthy competition and innovation in the civil aviation industry.

It's not about who wins because both are better than their predecessors and have specific qualities.

MC21-300 is going to be best in single isle market globally, excluding anti competitive sanctions. C919 will be primarily for domestic market but the MC21-200 (C919 competitor) recieving the 300's upgrades can re-enter the global market as a MAX-8 competitor, I'm also hoping that someone at UAC has enough between their ears to implement one flight deck across their fleet, that being Irkut-300 and the SuperJet 100 with rear mounted engine's (PD-8👍👍) is re-born and taking on the A220-100. Inexpensive upgrades + better sales staff = UAC success.

China has the largest air market with in a few years, so having a China made plane is great

If the C919 is fully cleared soon for flights in China, I don’t see why it doesn’t take a lot of that market in the next 10 years. Quite a challenge to Boing and Airbus, as China is their largest growth market. Then China can clear it for sales in many of the Belt and Road countries, so over 10 years, we could see China make a lot of sales globally. The Chinese will be relentless on making it so, after all the sanctioning by the US. And it will have its own engines in time as well, just wait and see. The US and the UK have made a bad mistake alienating China and Russia, as the two countries, with huge industrial capacity in China and access to a phenomenal amount of resources in Russia,will join at the hip and dictate their own terms in the world (as they increasingly are starting to do even now). We in Canada should be like New Zealand and treat both countries neutrally. Hating China is digging one's own grave, and thankfully we have not followed the US down that path to nearly the same extent.

i actually prefer the mc-21. it looks way better than comac and is better in every aspect including passenger amount and fuel efficiency. i just love the mc-21

34% of civilian airplanes were exclusively made by Russia in Soviet times Russia is the only republic in the Soviet Union that has been building Russian planes for over a century in the aviation industry Airbus 1979 Franco-German-Spanish project Sikorsky Russky Vityaz 10 May 1913

They won't overtake the industry but both can find a market domestically and in the Global South - especially among neighboring countries.

I m Chinese, both are great! have to try both!! avoid boeing 737max, many accidents. China recently has one accident of 737 crash, 1xx ppl dead RIP!! no USA plane okay. USA Boeing is the biggest concern for safety.

Congratulation China amazing prograss

And when does the Russian MS-21 come out? It is a much better passenger plane than the Chinese MC-919, it has the most modern engines in the world and the PD7, PD14, PD18, PD35 are entirely built in Russia. The MS-21 should be flying around the world by now, especially considering the crass anti-Russian sanctions. Russia is going to show the world that it doesn't need yankees worms or Eurodogs.

China's C919 may have its attractiveness because it uses the same engine as A320, yet it's more than 30% cheaper than an A320.

It is very good to know that Russia and China have developed their own civil aviation planes ....and thus help or support self sufficiency ..... Though these are far behind the current models of Airbus and Boeing, they are indigenous to those countries and cost effective... More importantly , these air craft will help them to circumvent sanctions by US and West ... If these are proven in service for a few years , they may start getting international customers ...

Domestic market is enough for C919.

"Domestic market" alone would be sufficient market. In fact, neither MC21 nor C919 may be able to fully meet the domestic demands during the immediate future. They may still need to buy some Boeing and Airbus. Only question is how many and for how long?

I am sure Chinese will sooner fly the C919 than a Boeing max. Anyone want to buy a cheap 737Max. China has some for sale.

C919 is the best😀😀😀

MC-21. It can stay afloat with or without sanctions as it has its own Russian built engine. The C919 will grind to a halt once US apply sanctions.

India 🇮🇳 RUSSIA 🇷🇺

С919.🇨🇳👍👍👍

MC21 a class of its own

C919🇨🇳 is marvelous👌

C919:3.521kg/KM; MC21:3.4kg/KM ; C919:72500-20400-19560=32540KG ; MC21:79250-18900-20400=39950KG ; Therefore, in fact, the fuselage weight of C919 is lighter, so the payload is larger. In addition, the design objectives of the two aircraft are different. The goal of C919 is to fly within China and Southeast Asia for a short distance. In the future, c929 will be designed for intercontinental flight. Therefore, I think the size of C919 is just enough.

Very interesting. The world will benefit from new players entering the competition.

🇷🇺🇨🇳👍👍

Best mc 21

It is still doubtful that the Total Cost of Ownership of MC21 or C919 will be better than Airbus and Boeing. But C919 will definitely have a better chance as China has a much larger market and airliners are willing to operate domestic planes as long as the safety is ok.

Both are newer and more comfortable design than A320neo and 737 MAX

MC 21 would appear to be the best for operating income .Both the Russian and Chinese planes were developed back in the day when there was cooperation between countries and they both have a lot of western components that made sense back in the day . They will need to develop their own home grown engines and avionics as they can no longer depend on the west to cut them off from supplies making the planes useless Eventually in time they will both be independent of the west and perhaps China and Russia can work together to make that happen sooner .

We don't compete. We are friends. 🇷🇺🇨🇳

Nascent industry could take one or two decades to mature. I remember how people ridiculed the Chinese car or high-speed train when they first came out.

MC -21 by far will be the better, best option plane for over all flying has the better statistics overall so it should be very competitive on the market.

My understanding is that the C-919 would use American engines. Whereas Russia with its MC is developing its own line of engines. Well, it remains only to wish good luck to Russia.

You have incorrect data. The flight range of MS-21 is 6000 km, and the maximum payload is 22600 kg.

Time is the best testing tool.

C919 is the best

Great video, but please bear in mind the C in MC is Cyrillic, so it should be pronounced as S.

some comments are criticizing reliability standards of both planes. Hilarious, considering Boeing's "sterling" recent safety record.

World population needs cheap flights.

Both are safe products, or else airline companies the world over would not be lining up to buy more than a thousand C919s. That confidence is premised on Chinese successes in her space exploits -- having chalked up an almost 100% success rate in its orbital space station and lunar and Martian landings. As for the MC 21, The West is naturally prejudiced against Russian products. In terms of cost-value comparisons, C919 wins hands down as it is 30% cheaper than the A320, which by the way is fitted with the same LEAP engine. As for Boeing airplanes, unless the company can fundamentally change the world's perception of its dishonesty and fraudulent practices before and after the two 737 Max 8 disasters, it has no future because competition in the global market is based on total trust in the safety of your products. FYI, even American airlines themselves have placed orders for the C919.

I sure that MC-21 would be serving only Russian market for some time. Where as C919 hold an edge better due to commonality with A-320 ground handling equipment as the A-320 specifications are same. Chines on C-919 may use already available ground handling with out additional investment. The MC-21 will need a different handling equipment however the MC-21 has the potential to grow longer and travel further like the A321XLR. With a wider cabin

Both should make it. And MC21 should fly all flights in Ukraine after Russia take over the entire country.

Most chinese and russian airline companies prefer Boeing and Airbus airplanes.

Russia and China should use their homegrown aircraft for domestic travel to avoid sabotage by their competitors.

Seems like Russia still in the USSR style in marketing. They need to learn how to run business, just like China does.

US congressmen even believe Chinese made cranes spy on them. There is no chance for Chinese made aircraft to enter US market.

Excellent cooperation between Russia and China

If the MS-21 has good noise insulation and comfort, it will be the best on the market because it has the widest body. This is very important to me as a passenger. But for this, I would like to see how the MS-21 flies for at least one year to make sure it is safe and free from defects. Today I choose the A320, but after a year of operating the MC-21 I may change my mind.

Greater competition is excellent for the aviation market

I think C21 has an edge over C919

MC21 is more cost effective. China is building a plane with US and EU equipment and systems. The prices for the EU equipment is going to sky rocket if they haven't already. And I suspect the US isn't far behind.

These two planes will gain popularity because Russia and China have strong ties in a lot of African nations and Middle Eastern nations will start buying them

The best for airlines is the plane that consumes less fuel per kilometer

Both aircraft will win.

Very informative video

6:40 the MC21 western engines are PW1000g but not the ones for the A220 which are too low in thrust, ~20klb. MC21 specific engines are larger diameter and ~30klb.

Creating animosity for them? Why don't do Boeing and Airbus.

No foreign countries will buy the MC21 or the C919 due to supply chain issues that much of their parts relies on western sourcing. That leaves them with just a domestic market. With a limited market, they per plane cost will be high which will make them uncompetitive against well established planes.

Dump Boing quickly The history showed accident prone design.

MC-21 is a better airplane, it has nearly 95% local content while C919 can only achieve 45% local content. they don't even have their own engines. What they have is a huge domestic market that can absorb a large number of aircraft.

MC21 the Best!

it's actually not MC (em see), but MS (em es), because in Russian language "C" is pronounced as S. MS-21 = magistralny samolyot 21 veka (mid-range plane of XXI century)

building a reputational airline is more than jets, it requires a whole service chain, if Russia wants ms21 going globally you need to fix all these relationships with every country. I see China focus on domestic market only, Russia should do the same

It‘s MS-21 the C is a cyrillic S.

C919❤❤❤MC 🔝🔝🍃🍃👍👍👍👍👍

Na the A220 300 is a better plane and price competitive. . Neither plane has global parts and training like Airbus . China will force Belt and Road debtors to use the C919.

Russian planes for over a century in the aviation industry Boeing 787 designed by Russian engineers at Boeing's Moscow offices Do not believe me you have a search engine In 1880, on the initiative of Dmitry Mendeleev Mozhaisky, the aircraft became one of the world's first heavier-than-air planes 1904 , an aerodynamic institute was established in Kuchino, headed by Russian scientist Nikolai Zhukovsky, founding creator of hydro and aerodynamics Dmitry Grigorovich the world's first seaplanes 1911, the Russian Technical Society organized the first international aviation exhibition a galaxy of scientists Keldysh, Sedov, Lavrent'ev, Khristianovich, H E. Kochin, L. N. Sretensky and ... ' Russian aeronautics by Sikorsky Rousski Vitiaz 1913 1920 Sukhoi, MiG, Tupolev, Iliushin, Yakovlev, Beriev and Irkut ....... more than 30 design offices and manufacturers, the most closed after the fall of the Union

The tb14 engine on the mc21 is state of the art , and china 919 , well done , Half the price of Boeing and airbus . That's why the us sanctioning both countries

I doubt they will beat Boeing and Airbus they are just way too good but let’s see how this goes

C919

ps. I would rather fly Chinese.

This world 🌎 will be really very beautiful 😍 in a near future…

I would prefer MC 21

If both aircraft were available, which one you will use to travel?

The Russian plane seemed like it would have been a threat to existing competitors. But because of sanctions it won’t reach its full potential. Only likelihood of it gaining market share outside Russia is by selling to countries like India, which won’t buy Chinese jets.

Compare with what China Russia are One 🎉🎉🎉🎉

More competition is good,

Good to see competitive aircrafts are coming to the market 😂.

MC 21 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Planes for BRICS Nations..

The Russians have been building aircrafts for ages. Chinese have just graduated from scree driver technology to making stuffed toys snd replicas of global monuments to be sold in souvenir shops! The military aircraft do very well, while on the runway. Its a bit premature to trust them with passenger aircraft, wven if the looks mimic American ansmd European designs😏 Russians are inna different league altogether.

Considering the situation right now, yeah the MC-21 is probably fucked.

Who wins? Boeing and airbus, of course.

It would be MC21

You never indicate the cabin witdh what is a key element to passenger confort !

The one who has the least West parts.

Stop calling it "em-cee" for God sakes. It is "em -ess".

Both good china and Russia made planes

MC-21 > C919
