Airbus Now Wants To Remain In UK Regardless Of Brexit Outcome

May 23, 2019 - By Jorge Valero for eurasiareview.com

European planemaker Airbus wants to stay in the UK whatever the outcome of Brexit, as the country is "a very important pillar" for the company, new CEO Guillaume Faury said on Tuesday (21 May), amending negative comments made by his predecessor.

Airbus, seen as the poster child of industrial integration in creating European champions, also wants to be "more Asian" to be closer to its fastest-growing markets.

Faury spoke with journalists invited to the innovation days at the company's Toulouse headquarters. EURACTIV was part of the attendees.

In one of his first major media appearances since taking over in April, Faury stressed that the UK is "a very important pillar" for Airbus.

For that reason, he said, "we want to stay in the UK", regardless of the Brexit outcome...

Each aircraft will likely require between 100 and 150 hours of preparation before flying..

May 24, 2019 - by Tracy Rucinski for reuters.com

Once regulators approve Boeing Co's grounded 737 MAX jets for flight, each aircraft will likely require between 100 and 150 hours of preparation before flying, officials from the three U.S. airlines that operate the MAX told Reuters.

The estimate, provided to Reuters by American Airlines Group Inc, United Airlines and Southwest Airlines Co officials, is the first indication of the time needed to bring the jets out of storage following a worldwide grounding in March spurred by deadly crashes in Indonesia and Ethiopia.

The allotted 100 to 150 hours of jet preparation comes on top of the hours needed for pilot training...

China airline association estimates losses from 737 MAX grounding at US$579 million

May 24, 2019 - by Stella Qiu, editing by Christopher Cushing for reuters.com

BEIJING (Reuters) - The China Air Transport Association (CATA) on Friday said it estimates losses at Chinese airlines caused by the grounding of Boeing Co's 737 MAX aircraft will reach around 4 billion yuan ($579.32 million) by the end of June.

China was the first country to ground the 737 MAX two months ago after a crash in Ethiopia killed 157 people in March, in the second such incident for Boeing's newest aircraft. The U.S. air regulator expects approval for the plane to return to service as early as late June, sources told Reuters on Thursday.

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.
