Boeing 737 MAX Gets New Orders

Image
Boeing easily beat rival Airbus in orders for new planes last month, but Chicago-based Boeing trailed its European rival in delivering planes to airline customers. Boeing said that it took orders for 31 planes in July while 17 others were canceled, resulting in a net gain of 14. That compared with two orders for Airbus. It was Boeing’s sixth straight month of positive net orders after seeing cancellations exceed orders for most of 2020. Boeing has reported 270 net orders so far in 2021. Brazil’s Gol ordered nine 737 Max jets last month and Dallas-based Southwest Airlines ordered six. Boeing delivered 28 planes in July, including nine 737 Max jets sent to Irish airline Ryanair. That fell short of Airbus, which delivered 47 planes last month. For the year, Boeing has delivered 184 planes, more than all of 2020. This despite the halt in shipping its 787 jet because of production flaws in the fuselage and nose. Last month, the company said it will cut production of 787s. Deliveries are cri...

Emirates Airbus A380 Landing in Strong Crosswinds

Heavy Cosswinds Caught on video this weekend was this crosswind landing done by an Emirates Airbus A380 at Manchester Airport, Saturday the 26th of March 2016. Looks like the pilots had everything under control even in the strong crosswinds that day and managed to do a safe landing with the big Airbus A380 carrying around 500 passengers. The video uploaded to World Aviation HD on Youtube even have some comments from the passengers on the Airbus. Lena Jostel 1 day ago I was on this flight, it was scary. World Aviation HD 1 day ago +Lena Jostel hey lena, what was it like? Ringo Hime 1 day ago +World Aviation HD I remember there was a period of standstill as you can see from the video, and the descent was quite abrupt and I felt queasy. However the pilot really did great landing t...

With new aeronautical technologies and advances in aeronautical engineering that we see these days, the list of airplane types and models continues to grow bigger and bigger. You may ask yourself which of all the commercial airplanes in use 2014 are the ones that are the most commonly bought by aircraft companies? Lets have a look at some of the commercial planes in the world, according to a list issued by US-based therichest.com. The Top 10 Commercial Planes Sold 2014 No.10 Airbus A380 Airbus A380, the airplane manufactured by French company Airbus, went into production in 2004. The airplane is highly preferred because it is a double-decker, meaning it can accommodate more passengers. In fact, the Airbus A380 is considered the biggest passenger aircraft as of today.

✈ New Airbus A380-800 Superjumbo ✈

Image
Brief Description: The Airbus A380 Superjumbo is a ultraefficient double-deck, wide-body, four-engine airliner manufactured by the European corporation Airbus, an EADS subsidiary. Currently the largest passenger airliner in the world, superseding the Boeing 747 that was first introduced in 1969, and which was the largest and most expensive aircraft in the world until the introduction of the Airbus A380 in 2007. But it will still have a shorter fuselage than the Airbus A340-600 which is Airbus' next biggest passenger aeroplane. The A380 is the first commercial airliner to have a central wing box made of carbon fibre reinforced plastic. It is also the first to have a smoothly contoured wing cross section. The wings of other commercial airliners are partitioned span-wise into sections. This flowing, continuous cross section optimises aerodynamic efficiency. The cabin has features to reduce traveller fatigue such as a quieter interior and have a higher pressurisation than prev...
