Mitsubishi Regional Jets - HD Video Interview

[HD videos below] At the Asian Aerospace, which took place in Hong Kong between 8 and 10 March 2011, TravelNewsAsia.com interviewed Mr. Hitoshi Hank Iwasa to learn more about this brand new regional jet from Mitsubishi.

The company will first launch the 90-seat MRJ90 and then a year later plans to launch the slightly smaller MRJ70 that has 70 seats.

In the HD interview we learn more about Mitsubishi Aircraft Corporation, what makes the jets special, why they feel there is a need for another airline manufacturer and who they plan to target for sales, plus much, much more.

There is a lot of speculation in the media about whether Mitsubishi will launch an one hundred-seat version, a MRJ100, in the interview we ask about this, and wonder why the company would invest in a brand new aircraft with just 10 extra seats rather than build something with more. One explanation of course is the legal requirement for airlines to have one cabin crew member for every 50 seats.
