With nearly 1,000 A320 and 737 MAX family aircraft ordered at Paris Air Show, this week’s #FlightFriday looks at the A320ceo, A320neo, 737-800 and the 737-8 MAX
Lessor Avolon has signed an agreement to place an order for 20 further Airbus A330-900s and is swapping 50 A320neo orders for the larger A321neo version.
IndiGo and Airbus managed to stun the industry on the first day of the Paris Air Show with the firm order for A320neo family aircraft which was unusually big.
Airbus has begun work on a next-generation aircraft to enter service in 2035, opting for a novel architecture that may enable use of open-rotor engines.
The new short- and medium-haul aircraft will have similar flight envelope characteristics to today’s A320neo family, but much better fuel burn and greater range
