U.S. weighs blocking GE engine sales for China’s new airplane, sources say GlobeBusiness

The government has provided licences that allow those companies to sell engines, flight control systems and other components for China’s first large commercial aircraft, the COMAC C919. The narrow-body jet has already engaged in test flights and is expected to go into service next year. COMAC is an acronym for Commercial Aircraft Corp. of China Ltd.

The CFM LEAP engine is a joint venture between GE and France’s Safran Aircraft Engines. The proposal to halt the deliveries of the engines was also reported on Saturday by the Wall Street Journal. Aside from aircraft engines, flight control systems are up for discussion at the February meetings. Honeywell International has received licences to export flight control systems to COMAC for the C919 for about a decade, and one was approved in early 2020, according to a person familiar with the matter.But future permission for such sales for COMAC’s passenger aircrafts may be up for debate.

“If there are any changes, we would hope they would engage with us, as they’ve done before,” said Remy Nathan, vice-president for international affairs at the Aerospace Industries Association.
