In March 2009, Sichuan Airlines invested 200 million RMB (30 million USD) in United Eagle Airlines,[3] thus holding 76 percent of the shares.[2] In late 2009, these shares were sold to Chinese aircraft manufacturer Comac and to Chengdu Communications Investment Group. Following this ownership change, United Eagle Airlines placed a firm order for 30 Comac ARJ21s, the first of which initially was planned to be delivered in late 2010.[4]
On 23 January 2010, the airline was renamed Chengdu Airlines.[2][4]
