How much is a jet worth? Half price, Airbus figures show

February 15, 2019 - by Reuters

TOULOUSE, France (Reuters) - Airbus lifted the lid on one of the aircraft industry's worst-kept secrets on Thursday, revealing the scale of average discounts in the cut-throat global jet market.

For years, planemakers such as Airbus and U.S. rival Boeing have grabbed headlines by announcing orders at catalogue prices that are far above the real market value of jets.

But on Thursday, Airbus issued new figures suggesting that the average aircraft discount is close to 50 percent..

Airbus announced today (Seattle time, Feb. 14 in Toulouse) that it is terminating the A380 program.

The last airplane will roll off the assembly line in 2021, for Emirates Airlines.

Emirates cancelled an order for 39 A380s. In its place, the carrier ordered 30 A350s and 40 A330neos.

Toulouse - The bad news is piling up for the Airbus's superjumbo. The European manufacturer may announce this week that it would end production of the Airbus A380.

According to sources, the decision is already made and Airbus is preparing to end the production of the aircraft unless an unexpected order has been received. The announcement could be made on February 14, during the declaration of the annual results of the group.

Last week, Australian carrier Qantas announced the cancellation of an order for eight Airbus A380. A week earlier than that, the negotiations between Airbus and Emirates, the largest A380 operator in the world, leaked to the press.

Is Boeing or Airbus Better? We Asked an Airline Pilot

February 12, 2019 - by Howard Slutsken for ThePointsGuy.com

The corporate rivalry between Boeing and Airbus is the one of the most heated on the planet.

The American planemaker and its European rival share the market for large airliners almost 50/50, based on deliveries in 2018, and fight tooth and nail to beat one another. Last year, Boeing delivered 806 jets to customers while Airbus set a new company record with 800 deliveries.

While many flyers may not be able to tell the two apart at the gate, pilots know there's a big difference. And there are two very different philosophies behind how they fly those two brands of airplanes.

That's not to suggest that one approach is better than the other.

Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger partially attributed his safe landing at the controls of US Airways 1549 to the Airbus computer protections that aided the aircraft's engineless glide into the Hudson River.

Airbus A220 at airBaltic

Lufthansa leases two Airbus A220 from airBaltic - Lufthansa Planing an Order?

February 11, 2019 - Airlinewatch.com

Lufthansa leases two Airbus A220 from airBaltic from March 2019 to meet the increasing demand on European routes during the summer season.

The leased Airbus A220s will be based at Munich Airport from 31 March 2019 to 26 October 2019. Lufthansa is likely to deploy these aircraft on routes to Bucharest Otopeni, Budapest Ferihegy, Lyon Saint-Exupéry and Luxembourg Findel.

With CSeries (A220), Airbus Commands 78% of 100-150 Seat Sector

Airbus acquired 50.01% of the Bombardier CSeries program last year.

February 11, 2019 - by Scott Hamilton for Leeham News

Airbus acquired 50.01% of the Bombardier CSeries program last year.

Boeing and Embraer Commercial Aviation received Brazilian government approval last month and now await a nearly-year long regulatory approval process from around the globe.

Based on the announced orders at Jan. 1, Airbus has a 78% share of the 100-150 seat sector following the combinations.

Embraer sold more airplanes in this sector than Boeing: 95 E195-E2s to 70 737-7s.

The former CSeries has 526 orders to 55 for the A319neo.

Summary

14% of the A220 orders are classified as "Red" in LNA's judgment—orders that either should be removed from the backlog or, in one case, is highly questionable due to customer statements.
Another 11% of the A220 orders are classified as "Yellow," primarily due to region risk.
Synergies between A220 and A320 are greater than E2 and 737.

Original notes and articles

My name is Normand Hamel. After a 35 year career in aviation I retired in 2009 to better concentrate on my favourite activities: reading and writing. If you wonder what Run-up Pad means it refers to this special section of a run-up area on an airport that can be heated up in cold temperatures to prevent an aircraft from slipping forward when power is applied to test the engines. It also refers symbolically to the yellow pad I am using to write these articles for which I intend to bring our readers to contribution to test my ideas, like one would test an engine to make sure it works properly.
