A newcomer from the east, the Irkut MC-21-300, is currently engaged in flight testing. Here one of the three flight-test aircraft is pictured displaying at MAKS in August 2019.

Momentum has started to build around the A220, formerly the C Series, since Airbus took majority control of the programme.

Air Baltic operated 19 A220-300s at the time of writing, including the distinctively painted YL-CSK (msn 55039) delivered in August 2019, which bears the colours of the Lithuanian flag and is named Vilnius.

The Airbus A321XLR, launched in June 2019, is due to enter service in 2023 and will be the longest-range single aisle airliner.

With its recent order for 50 examples, AirAsia X has taken orders for the A321XLR above the 200 mark.
