Making predictions is always a hazardous business.

Some predictions take years to resolve. The outcome of others come sooner than later. If you're right, you look sage. If you're wrong, you look like an idiot.

But HOTR is going to take a stab at it anyway.

Production Rates

Boeing's 737 production rate, which was 7/mo as 2020 ended, will soon be 15/mo. How do we come to this?

Spirit Aerosystems bumps its rate for fuselages this month from 7/mo to 10/mo. It's also "burning off" the 130 stored fuselages at the rate of 5/mo. Five plus 10 equals 15. Boeing's production rate will step up through the year, doubling to 31 a month by early 2021. The latter is Boeing's own forecast.

Boeing's delivery rate throughout this year, and next, will be...

Bombardier Sued For RUSTING Global Aircraft

January 11, 2021 - by MARIE-EVE FOURNIER for www.lapresse.ca

A lawsuit of nearly $ 26 million has been filed against Bombardier by one of its customers who complains of the presence of "abnormal and premature corrosion" on four Global aircraft.

Toronto finance company ECN claims in a lawsuit filed in late December that its three Global 5000 and Global 6000 aircraft are rusting. "This corrosion is a direct cause of a defect in the design and [or] manufacture of aircraft by Bombardier", she alleges.

These business jets were acquired in 2012, 2014 or 2015.

ECN says Bombardier "has long been

US Navy To Field C-130J-30 In Nuclear Communications Role

December 31, 2020 - by Gareth Jennings for www.janes.com

The US Navy (USN) looks set to field the Lockheed Martin C-130J-30 Hercules in the Take Charge And Move Out (TACAMO) survivable nuclear communications role, with a solicitation for fatigue test aircraft issued on 18 December.

The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) posted on the beta.sam.gov government procurement website that it is to award the aircraft manufacturer a contract for three 'stretched' Hercules airlifters in fiscal years 2022 and 2023 for testing and analysis for the TACAMO mission.

"The Analysis of Alternatives (AOA) results indicated that the four-engine, militarised C-130J-30 is optimally configured aircraft for performing the TACAMO mission," NAVAIR said. "The characteristics of this airframe also maximise the...

Airbus A220-300 formerly Bombardier CSeries CS300

Which Airlines Operate Both Versions Of The Airbus A220/CSeries?

Click Like to Follow Fliegerfaust Facebook page to get the News ASAP / Share to share this post now.

December 31, 2020 - for Linnea Ahlgren for www.simpleflying.com

The Airbus A220 is lauded by both carriers and passengers alike. In a recent interview, airBaltic's CEO Martin Gauss said it had changed his airline completely.

The jet, originally conceptualized as the Bombardier CSeries, is also being touted as the perfect post-pandemic plane. But which airlines are operating both the A220-100 and the A220-300?

Designed for the 100-150 seat market, there are two variants of the A220.

The smaller A220-100 has a length of 35 meters, a range of 6,390 km, and 100-120 seats in a two-class configuration. Its larger sibling, the A220-300, is 38.7 meters long, can fly 6,297 km, and...

  • Boeing, Airbus and Cessna simulator will be available to the public!

So far, the tranquil Graz, with 330,000 inhabitants, has been known to visitors for the medieval main square, the dreamy narrow streets with their numerous historical buildings and the clock tower, which sits enthroned at the top of the Schlossberg.

For two years now, the southern Austrian city has also been offering an attraction for aviation enthusiasts: the Nova Park aircraft hotel.

The hotel of the Graz businessman Helmut Neukam is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year. But it has only recently become an attraction, even if the idea had been around for a long time: 23 years ago, the businessman and aviation fan had the idea of buying two used aircraft that would become the hotel's bar and restaurant.

But only decades later did he fulfill his dream...

December 14, 2020 - by Josh K. Elliott for www.globalnews.ca

A French woman was killed Thursday in a brutal shark attack off St. Martin, which officials say was the first such incident in over a decade.

The attack happened in Orient Bay, a popular beach on the French side of the Caribbean island. The victim was swimming approximately 150 metres offshore at the time.

The shark tore the woman's leg off in the attack, leaving her unconscious in the water.

A boat operator who heard her cries showed up to pull her out of the water, but she died while she was being treated for her injuries...

See what I caught at Downsview Airport in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on Saturday, two new Bombardier BD-700-2A12 Global 7500s returning from their first test flights.

They are serial number 70070, operating as BBA9, did a touch and go on runway 33 before making a full stop landing and also serial number 70072, operating as BBA12, landed on runway 15 just after the sun had set.

See my pictures below!

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.
