Anyone know what the design philosophy is like with COMAC. Boeing or Airbus style?
I don't know for sure, but probably Airbus style as far as the control systems are concerned -- the Chinese seem to trust computers more than human pilots to fly the plane. (I'm sure that if it were possible to make a passenger UAV, the Chinese would be working on it by now.)
