Unlike last time round, Boeing isn't bringing any passenger jets to the Singapore Airshow in 2024.
China's first homegrown airliner, the Comac C919, is making its international debut at the show.
Boeing's problems with the 737 Max blowout could help the C919 compete with the big players.

Boeing isn't bringing any commercial passenger jets to this year's Singapore Airshow, which starts Tuesday, amid the fallout from the Alaska Airlines blowout.
