China’s domestically manufactured Comac C919 aircraft will fly outside the mainland for the first time next week and head to Hong Kong, where it will conduct a low-altitude flyby over the city’s Victoria Harbour on Dec. 16.

The C919, a single-aisle jet that has similar passenger capacity to narrowbody planes produced by Boeing Co. and Airbus SE, will go on display at Hong Kong International Airport during the trip, Hong Kong Chief Executive John Lee said Tuesday. It will be joined by an ARJ-21 regional jet.
