China's domestically developed C919 jet made its Middle East debut today, drawing strong attention as it appears at this year's Dubai Airshow. Displayed alongside the C909, the aircraft presents a major showcase of China's commercial aviation capabilities. Ahead of the show's opening, the C919 also completed an adaptation flight, heightening the expectations for its appearance at the event.

The debut comes as Dubai Airshow 2025 opens its 19th edition today, November 17, and runs through November 21 at Dubai World Central.
