China clears Boeing 787s for nation’s airlines: Boeing

Chinese regulators have approved the Boeing 787 to fly in the country, Boeing said, a move that opens up a large potential market to the US aerospace giant.

“I can confirm that the Civil Aviation Administration of China has granted type certification for the 787 Dreamliner,” a Boeing spokesman said in an email.

Chinese airlines have yet to take delivery of the high-tech 787, which last month was cleared to return to service after all 50 in use worldwide were grounded in mid-January following two overheated battery incidents.
