Mitsubishi Aircraft Aims at Refining the MRJ70

摘要

If a commercial aircraft program is almost seven years late, managers have a chance to rethink design features. And if the market has changed significantly in that time, they may have to think again.This seems to be the situation Mitsubishi Aircraft is in with its much-delayed MRJ regional jet-and more specifically, with the 76-seat MRJ70 version, which will be the second in service and appears to be gaining in importance. The company hints at improvements in MRJ70 operating efficiency, although it is not moving delivery targets.
