MONTREAL-BASED Bombardier Aerospace yesterday said its new partnership with Commercial Aircraft Corp of China (COMAC) to provide parts for the development of China's first domestically made jumbo jets will be cooperative, not competitive.
Guy Hachey, president and chief operating officer of Bombardier, the world's largest maker of business jets, said in Shanghai that the market in China is big enough for both countries to tap.
The two companies signed a deal late last month for Bombardier to collaborate with COMAC on cockpit-crew interface, electrical systems, material purchasing and customer services in the development of China's C919 jumbo jet, which may make its maiden flight in 2014.
"We will find more areas to collaborate, but first we will focus on the four areas in the agreement in the next year," Hachey said.
Bombardier's planned C series aircraft will have the same cockpit as the C919, helping COMAC cut research costs in a bid to challenge the dominance of Boeing and Airbus.
