China calls the C919, which can carry just under 200 passengers, its first large homegrown passenger jet. It s certified to carry passengers only within mainland China and flies with China Eastern Airlines. The C919’s overseas debut comes at a time when Boeing is making headlines for all the wrong reasons. “There is a lot of interest to see the actual aircraft, how it performs and how it is in flight,” he said. “It will become a competitor in a small way, but it won’t be in the same league as Airbus and Boeing,” he said.

☆ Airbus Pulls Further Ahead of Boeing in Global Plane Rivalry
▼ + stars: | 2024-02-15 | by ( Liz Alderman | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

Airbus, the European aerospace giant, plans to deliver around 800 commercial aircraft this year, including the popular single-aisle A320neo, its main competitor to the 737 Max. Airbus pulled in a record 2,094 commercial aircraft orders last year, partly on a surge in demand for narrow-body and mid-sized jets from India and other rapidly growing countries. That added to the company’s extensive backlog of 8,598 commercial aircraft at the end of 2023. By contrast, Boeing delivered 528 commercial airplanes and recorded 1,576 net orders. The company added a special dividend, on top of its usual payout, as its net cash exceeded €10 billion.

PARIS (AP) — Airbus plans to deliver more aircraft to customers in 2024 even as supply chain headaches continue to afflict the European airplane maker. The company reported healthy results for its commercial aircraft business Thursday in its latest annual earnings report, and signaled that there was more to come this year by setting a target of 800 commercial aircraft deliveries, 65 more than in 2023. But he said the company is focused on its order backlog with existing customers “that’s independent from what could happen outside." Openings for new airplane orders won't be available until the next decade, “so that would more impact the long term competitive positioning of the two companies rather than the short term,” Faury said. Airbus reported that adjusted earnings before interest and tax rose 4% to 5.8 billion euros ($6.2 billion) as revenue climbed 11%.

☆ We’re about to get investigators’ first report on the Alaska Airlines flight whose door plug blew off
▼ + stars: | 2024-02-06 | by ( Pete Muntean | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +2 min

CNN —The National Transportation Safety Board will release its preliminary report Tuesday on last month’s blowout of a part of an Alaska Airlines Boeing 737 Max 9 flight, NTSB spokesman Eric Weiss told CNN. On a January 5 Alaska flight 1282, the door plug blew off the side of the plane. The door plug fills a space in the fuselage that can otherwise contain an emergency exit door when plane seats are arranged a certain way. CNN has reported that NTSB investigators have been closely scrutinizing the door plug and whether crucial bolts that hold it in place were properly installed when the incident occurred. Meanwhile, the head of the Federal Aviation Administration will tell House lawmakers Tuesday that his agency is “closely scrutinizing” Boeing after last month’s door plug blowout.

New York CNN —A new problem has been found during the production of 737 Max jets that will force Boeing to rework about 50 planes that have not yet been delivered. The problem was disclosed in a memo sent to Boeing (BA) employees Sunday by Stan Deal, the head of the company’s commercial aircraft unit. An employee at Boeing supplier Spirit AeroSystems, which makes the fuselages of the 737 Max jets, notified the plane maker that two holes may not have been drilled exactly to Boeing’s requirements, according to Deal’s memo. While the exact cause of the incident is not yet known, Boeing CEO David Calhoun told investors on Wednesday: “We caused the problem, and we understand that.”“Whatever conclusions are reached, Boeing is accountable for what happened. “We simply must be better.”Deal’s Sunday memo said Boeing’s 737 Max factory in Renton, Washington would “dedicate several days … this week to focus on this important work, reflecting the premium we place on quality, safety and, ultimately, stability in our factories.”

"We ended our buyers' strike and found several promising new investments that we believe will help us in 2024," the hedge fund manager said in an investor letter dated Monday and obtained by CNBC. Einhorn had stopped building new stock positions at one point in the fourth quarter due to worries about intensifying geopolitical risks. Because of his conservative positioning, his hedge fund, particularly the short side, was hurt during 2023's strong year-end rally. Einhorn's hedge fund returned 22.1% in 2023, net of fees and expenses. His stellar track record made him one of the most followed hedge fund managers on Wall Street.

☆ Homebuilt plane sold last year for $100,000 crashes into ocean off California coast, likely killing 4 people

A homebuilt aircraft crashed into the ocean just south of San Francisco on Sunday. AdvertisementA small homebuilt aircraft crashed off the coast of California on Sunday, The Associated Press reported. But the following morning, authorities said a fishing boat spotted a "deceased female" in the water, which they said was "likely associated with the plane crash given she was located in the same location." The Cozy Mark IV is 16.9 feet long with a wing span of 28.1 feet. It has a top speed of 200 mph and can travel around 1,000 miles, per Aircraft Spruce & Specialty Co., which sells plans for the Mark IV.

The plane was registered to an Oakland-based company called Winged Wallabies, Inc., according to Federal Aviation Administration records. He said it was “traumatic” to know the plane he had spent so much time on had crashed with people on board. Like commercial aircraft, all home-built planes are required by the FAA to be inspected annually for air worthiness. Cozy aircraft have the same safety record as commercially built planes of similar size, said aeronautical engineer Marc Zeitlin, who consults with the National Transportation Safety Board on crash investigations involving Cozy aircraft, including this one. “You buy foam, you buy fiberglass, you buy metal parts from all the manufacturers.

Here is the latest on what to know as Boeing faces yet another 737 Max crisis. “We’ll make sure that we take steps to ensure that it never, never can happen.”The 737 Max 9 remains groundedOn Saturday, the Federal Aviation Administration ordered most Boeing 737 Max 9 aircraft to be temporarily grounded as regulators and Boeing investigate the cause of the incident. That has led to hundreds of cancelations, particularly from Alaska Airlines and United Airlines, which have dozens of the 737 Max 9 planes. United Airlines said it is canceling 167 Boeing 737 Max 9 flights today and expects significant cancellations on Thursday, too. Alaska Airlines also said Monday it found loose hardware on some of its 737 Max 9 planes during inspections.

☆ FAA grounds more than 170 Boeing 737 Max 9s after section of Alaska Airlines plane blows out
▼ + stars: | 2024-01-06 | by ( Leslie Josephs | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

Alaska and United Airlines said late Saturday that they were grounding their entire fleets of Boeing 737 Max 9s. "Safety will continue to drive our decision-making as we assist the NTSB's investigation into Alaska Airlines Flight 1282," FAA Administrator Mike Whitaker said in a statement. The FAA has heavily scrutinized the Boeing 737 Max since two fatal crashes grounded the jetliner worldwide almost five years ago. The section of the fuselage missing appeared to correspond to an exit not used by Alaska Airlines, or other carriers that don't have high-density seating configurations, and was plugged. Before the FAA issued its directive, Alaska Airlines earlier said it would ground its fleet of Boeing 737 Max 9 planes.

Though aerospace and defense funds understandably haven't done well in this year's faltering market, some individual stocks have posted substantial gains. U.S. support in what's turning out to be a long war in Ukraine will likely push overall contractor spending higher, benefitting aerospace and defense companies. In this era of high-tech warfare, when strategic military engagement is more about digital systems and aerial weapons than boots on the ground, aerospace and defense companies are advantageously positioned.

The other says we’re all going to be fine because we already have everything we need to solve climate change. But to overcome climate change, we need rich individuals, companies and countries to step up to ensure green technologies are affordable for everyone, everywhere — including less wealthy countries that are large emitters, like China, India and Brazil. Let’s start with what rich individuals, like me, can do to help. They should be investing in companies that are developing transformative green solutions — especially solutions that have potential but are currently underfunded, including green hydrogen and carbon management.

☆ Be warned: Flights are getting bumpier

Air turbulence is becoming more common and more intense. As the jet stream buckles a bit because it's not as strong as it was in the past, now you have all this energy associated with the jet stream up 30,000 feet or so. But changes to the atmosphere mean these corridors are getting bumpier, so avoiding them could result in smoother flights. But while we can get better at avoiding air turbulence, we won't be able to avoid it altogether. That's why some companies are going back to the drawing board to design airplanes that can better adjust to turbulent air.

UAC, which oversees Russian aviation brands including Tupolev, Ilyushin and Sukhoi, said the plane will be capable of carrying up to 370 passengers, a capacity that would put it alongside the likes of Airbus’ A340 or Boeing’s 777. As of 2022, only 144 active Russian airline planes were built in Russia, according to data provided by aviation analytics firm Cirium. “Although Moscow won’t admit it, the sanctions that followed the Ukraine invasion have really damaged Russian aviation,” Murdo Morrison, head of strategic content at FlightGlobal, tells CNN. Addressing concerns, Russia’s Ministry of Transport said at the time that flight safety on Russia-operated aircraft meets international standards.
