章 653: Chapter 637: Heading Toward the Speed of Sound

```

February 1st, Hongqiao Airport.

A diverse group of elites stood on the tarmac, applauding and cheering for the C832 passenger plane being towed out of its parking spot.

This aircraft flew from Rong City to Modu City yesterday, and it's worth mentioning that the pilots controlling them were from United Airlines. They would fly directly to the other side of the Pacific from here.

The aircraft registered as N755C1 was the first C832 to be exported abroad and the first large, domestically produced airliner that America Airlines had purchased from within the country, making it highly significant.

In July, leveraging the failure of Artemis II, Commercial Aviation managed to obtain export qualifications for 300 units of C822 and 100 units of C832. Owing to the pressure at the time, numerous American airlines also placed orders, totaling a considerable seventy to eighty aircraft.
