Airbus commented that its A321neo jetliner completed its first flight on Tuesday, making the trip using engines supplied by CFM International after a last-minute switch from turbines supplied by competitor Pratt & Whitney.

This flight took off from Hamburg, Germany and landed five and a half hours later. This marks the beginning of a series of flight tests for the plane, rivaling Boeing’s largest 737 MAX.
