In addition to the subcontracting and joint-venture activities described earlier, Boeing provides technical expertise and international operational experience in aviation safety, efficiency, reliability, and quality to Chinese airlines, regulatory authorities, and industry. This technology transfer helps ensure flight safety, reliability, and efficiency and the production of safe, high-quality airplane hardware. Boeing directly supports CAAC in its development of International Civil Avi-ation Organization–compliant aviation laws for China, civil aviation regulations, and various safety enhancement plans. Boeing works with CAAC on advanced air traffic systems to enhance the safety and effi-ciency of China’s air traffic system. Some specific projects include the development of a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)–style train-ing center for flight and maintenance inspectors; the development of CAAC’s automatic dependent surveillance–broadcast (ADS-B, a coop-erative surveillance technique for air traffic control) implementation plans; and a number of Required Navigation Performance demonstra-tion flights into high-altitude airports in Tibet (“Dawn of a New Age,” 2010).
In addition, Boeing has reportedly provided professional training worth several hundred million dollars to more than 37,000 Chinese aviation professionals since 1993, at no charge to China. An executive development program for senior CAAC and Chinese airline managers was launched in 1998 and is still ongoing. Annual senior executive development programs have also been conducted for Chinese aviation industry executives from AVIC. Other training programs supported by Boeing include the Boeing Masters of Business Administration (MBA) program for junior and mid-level officials from the Chinese aviation sector and a three-year internship program launched in 2008 for 60 Boeing Fellows, half from the United States and half from China (“Boeing’s Investments in China,” 2010).
Boeing is also a leading participant in the U.S.–China Aviation Cooperation Program (ACP), a partnership of CAAC, the U.S. gov-ernment, and various American aerospace firms launched in 2004. The program conducts executive development, energy conservation semi-nars, flight standards programs, and various other training programs for Chinese aviation sector personnel. Boeing has also established a number of training and technology development programs in part-nership with several Chinese universities (“Boeing’s Investments in China,” 2010).

The project will be based in Shanghai and will focus on the R&D, production, and support of fuel and hydraulic conveyance sys-tems for the COMAC C919 program and the global civil avia-tion market in general. Total program value for the C919 project, including aftermarket opportunities, is estimated at $1.8 billion, based on an anticipated volume of 2,500 aircraft. The joint ven-ture is the first for a COMAC enterprise with a foreign company.
