Airbus Marks Its Pinnacle Years by 2030, Boeing's Pinnacle Is Now Through 2030.

Boeing is not waiting for 2030 for capturing the market. It has set its sights on entrenching a hold on the world market through 2015 past 2030, making a pinnacle statement of world's largest aircraft maker in the midst of Airbus' former reign of being or trying to be the worlds largest aircraft maker for a couple of years. Every statement Airbus makes is now geared away from world largest aircraft maker, with a transitioning statement pointing towards, saying, " by 2030 we will do this". Does this mean Airbus is over 15 years behind Boeing in its aircraft design? If the answer is "yes", then they recognized they have laid-up short during the last 8 years with the A350 project, Airbus missed the mark on its superjumbo hub maker, and underestimated Boeing's previous tenuous nature, where the A350 does not compare to its newfound combative presentation from Boeing and its family of aircraft of Hub Breaker.

The 787-9 is really the "Game Changer", not like a prototypical 787-8. Boeing has changed so much from its learning points from the 787-8, that the 787-9 will please, astound, and change aviation more than what Boeing originally claimed during the onset of the 787-8 program.  The 300 passenger 787-9 allotment of seats is about right. Its 8500-mile range is astounding and the innovation found on-board is incredible. Fancy seats on the A350 won't catch the 787-9, nor will the XWB motif sell more airplanes. Boeing has set a standard Airbus can't reach in 2015. Maybe by 2030, they will attempt to catch up with Boeing again.

As reported earlier, Emirates is tipping its hand towards Boeing, as a critical Middle East customer, as it dropped 70 Airbus from its order books and just purchased 150 777X 350-400 seat passenger jets. These jets pick-up where the 787-9 leaves off. The passengers will not be crammed-in while fitting out with 350-400 seat range, as found in 331 seated 787-800 or an A330 NEO type. The range, now that it is mentioned, erases the need for mega hubs other than landing in one, because that is truly your destination.

It means you can also go anywhere from a mega hub to small vacation destinations directly, on a sizable Boeing aircraft. The 8,500-mile reach in comfort is the actual start of a vacation until you reach the next baggage claim turnstile in the South Pacific. That doesn't sound A380 style at all since South Pacific atolls don't land the A380, where a 787-9 could. Should freight be the next 777X topic?

Boeing rejects 'mega-city' case for A380

LONDON

Boeing is dismissing Airbus’s claim that the emergence of “mega-cities” will drive future demand for high-capacity transports including the A380.

Airbus has stated that there are 42 cities handling more than 10,000 daily long-haul passengers – those flying over 2,000nm internationally.

It adds that this figure will more than double to 89 by 2032. Airbus has said that the traffic volumes will demand the use of large aircraft such as the A380.

But Boeing vice-president of marketing Randy Tinseth, speaking as the airframer detailed its latest 20-year forecast in London, said there was “no data that supports [those] conclusions”.

Boeing’s latest 20-year forecast claims that in the 15 years to 2014, the number of seats per flight at the top 25 long-haul airports has decreased by 2%.

Frequency and capacity at these airports, it states, has risen by around 60% as the number of destinations served has increased by 46%.

Tinseth says that “expansion, not size” is the driving element behind the figures. He credits the development of the Boeing 777 and 787 for giving airlines the flexibility to open new markets, adding that Boeing “didn’t expect” services such as British Airways’ 787 operations from London to Austin.

The Airbus recent mantra: "is wait for 2030, then we'll beat "em".

Boeing mantra, "we've only just begun to fight, can't wait for 2015".

Here She Comes Decked To The Nines ANZ First 787-9

Video is in the Masthead Picture of the below link:

Air New Zealand is the news today. Its first 787-9 and Boeing's first delivery of a 787-9 has been completed, in full party mode, as it currently flies home to New Zealand this afternoon for a long 15+ hour voyage.  When the opportunity arises, I will update with a full you tube video of the event. But in the meantime, link to the video URL above for a glimpse of the first turn of the Boeing snow ball rolling down hill from Everett, Wa. as it gains speed.

Bears Of The Market Look To Feed On The Clark Fork River Dump

Would you just look at that and then wonder about the cost. The old adage, "Time is Money" is the biggest loser here in this picture. Without being too "Selfie",  on this article, I'll mention my expert back ground on this accident. I learned my fly fishing chops on this very spot of river in my youth at age 15. I floated this very same stretch of river during the same time period. Finally, I hunted up the slope from this Boeing dump site. This is my expert response to the Boeing Bear Market Refuge and dump. The stock Market needs to analyze how many lost hours add up for 6 lost fuselages.


 

• The time taken to examine and add up.
• What to do with worker waiting just-in time to finish the building of aircraft
• The time lost building the dead bodies
• The material lost to the aluminum crushers and recyclers
• The time delay of not reaching 42 aircraft  in July as paced.

Time is a cruel punishment for a heat sensitive piece of rail, that may have buckled under a stress load, during a warm day. True to the Montana spirit of adventure, droves of rafters , and fishing junkies stormed the banks to wet their lines while the clean-up started. That's what I would do, if I lived within 70 miles of the wreck. Since, I now live in Idaho, and my hands are full of Idaho rivers with little time to cover all of its pleasantries. A wreck of this scope will bring the Bears out, east of the Mississippi. The total cost reimbursement will not replace opportunity lost cost, momentum squandered, and deliveries delayed. The insurance won't recover these amounts which could tally in the millions during the year ahead. These are intrinsic amounts that accounting can or will have difficulty assigning the lost amounts to the affected projects.

So what can you assign for cost?  Compare what you made last month at 42 units plus other affected programs that are delayed subtract what you do in July. Six Bodies represents approximately five days of production give or take rounding. Then the exponential stuff starts generating gained cost.

The production cycle is interrupted. The labor cost flows extrapolates from prior production lost on damaged bodies to the new added do-over hours. Double the material costs from do-over bodies. Then only produce 36 units during mid-year ramp-up of production flow. Ka- Ching, call the accountants and insurance people.

In all, the final cost go into some infinite universe of calculation. However by years end, Boeing will recover numbers nicely as they would want one extra 737 per month to slip in somewhere before your eyes and make 2014 come in close for 737 production, if not on target for the investors. That's why those accounting types get paid the "Big Bucks", just to appease the Bear stock market.
