The C919 flight simulator attracted a lot of attention during its debut at the Shanghai Popular Science Products Expo on Friday.

The layout and main controls in the simulator are as same as the real C919 aircraft, China's first large passenger aircraft wholly designed and built in the country.

The stimulator uses the world's most advanced computer imaging and virtual reality technologies to realistically display airports, seas, cities and ports.

The Shanghai Popular Science Products Expo, where around 3,500 exhibits are on display, runs until August 28.
