BEIJING - China's homegrown Y-12F versatile aircraft has passed evaluation flight tests for its automatic flight control system by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) of the United States, the plane's developer announced Saturday.
The Y-12F completed the FAA evaluation flight tests for its automatic flight control system on Friday, with its performance meeting the requirements, said AVIC Harbin Aircraft Industry Company Ltd (AVIC HAFEI).
Headquartered in Harbin in northeastern China's Heilongjiang Province, AVIC HAFEI is a subsidiary of the Stated-owned China Aviation Industry Corporation (AVIC).
It is the first time for US civil aviation authorities to evaluate the auto-control system of the China-developed plane for its Part 23 certification standards for small fixed-wing airplanes, according to AVIC HAFEI.
The FAA conducted ground tests and flight tests for the automatic flight control system of the Y-12F plane in support of the Chinese civil aviation authorities.
The automatic flight control system of the Y-12F was developed by the aviation system provider Honeywell Aerospace.
The twin-engine propeller-driven Y-12F aircraft is designed according to airworthiness standards of China and the United States.
It conducted its maiden flight in 2010, and received certificates from the CAAC and FAA in 2015 and 2016, respectively.
The airborne automatic flight control system is capable of self-navigation and automatic piloting.
In mid-June, the Y-12F aircraft passed the Chinese civil aviation authorities' verification flight tests for its automatic flight control system.

How many ordered of Y-12F?

Time for a quick tally for orders
C919 1015 units
ARJ21 553 units
MA700 185 units
Older units
MA60/600 over 100 units delivered
Y-12 variants apparently over 250 units delivered
Overall portfolio over 2,000 aircraft small to large

To compare similar class of recently launched plane models, MC-21 has 200 orders, B737MAX has 4500 orders and A320Neo has 5000 orders. Thus 1000 orders for C919 might, very roughly speaking, produce a 9% market share, worldwide.
ARJ21 class wise, has the following competitors E/E2 jets from Embraer, with 370 orders, Superjet with 400 orders and Bombardier with 450 orders. That'd give ARJ21's 550 orders a market share of 31%.
While neither type is likely to really sell outside China, it does seem that Chinese market alone is large enough to deprive other competitors of a significant piece of the cake.

I disagree the aircraft manufactures have tiny profit margin and just like the airlines are just scarping by
Even a 1% drop in sales is significant, this is why the big boys are now offering co-development and parts for Chinese aviation, previously they would not do this but now have no choice than to either leave Chinese market in coming years or go it together with Chinese partners for a while then get kicked out

As my post was all about the fact that 9-31 percent of the market is a big, significant deal.
