Jump to postHello everybody
One question
We are comparing fuel burn per hour
Perfect
Are the cruise speed for both comparable ?
Thank you every body
All the number are for 40t payload?
40t payload is a lot for a 787-9 ?
And not so much for A350-900 in the real life
How does it change the analysis when you go with "typical payload ?" Wha is the usual penalty (rule of thumb) for 1t more of weight ?

MSN 249 was testing a new component.
As always RR are working hard to improve, it’s what we do.
Other than that
But PAX wise, 1 or 4 engines is the same when on are seating in your long single aisle tube

707-320C : Range 5000 Nm it's a plain narrowbody, isnt'it ?

Been following all threads on A321neo vs 737 Max 10 but never responded before. I am an Airbus pilot who has joined a company flying brand new A321neos and soon the A321LRs.

Nonetheless in GE press kit GE9X is now to be certificated in 2019... that is a full 12 month year (as many other). No more quarterly timeframe
Let's see
777X is a very very deep overhaul. The same kind of derivative the A330 was to the A310 for Airbus

AFAIK both the 777-9 and the 777-8 will have an MTOW of 351.5 t.
777-10 will be 360 t so why 777-8 can't go all the way to this mark ?
Jump to postYes ...
But customer still have the choice between, the NEO and the last iteration CEO (that i guess Leeham is using as baseline)
And airbus is comparing with non 242t version (ie without last aero tweaks and T700EP2)
Jump to post… An interesting aspect is that now Airbus will own the design of an artificial-feel side stick… Interesting is the fact that airbus might have to think at harmonizing Flight laws...

Jump to postI think we should not underestimate the advantages an A350 or B787 bring to the customer concerning comfort.

How is the A350 @10ab ?
I don't quite understand how these stairs impact the upper deck layout. Per exit regulations, all seats have to have exits fore and aft of them. On the A380, the forward stairs act as the forward exits in lieu of a door. With the stairs relocated to MD Door 2, any area forward of them on the UD can...

And the 3 t MTOW might as well be old news : 2017 planned retrofittable 3t mtow boost to 569 t birds, without the wing twist
Strange also, the vertical wingtips ?
HK Express released some impressive fuel burn data of their A320neo aircraft. Even more impressive when you take into account that their A320neo is heavier due to the additional seats over the A320ceo. https://imagr.eu/up/BmaKt_C56Tg8gXQAExVCu.jpg https://imagr.eu/up/7na1G_C56Tg70XQAAVeff.jpg https...

The layout is also possible with some decrease in pitch, so i'm still dreaming....
Are we sure of that ?

going from 32in pitch to 30in can do the same?
All right,
Very interesting Zeke ! Thanks
I've seen this report, that might alse be wrong on the weights

Not part of the 242 t package
Apart for the wing pylon, that appears to have more resemblance to the A350, aerodynamic improvement seems to be incorporated in the wingbody fairing. http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z160/keesje_pics/A330%20NEO%20wingroot_zpsqboua7fk.jpg Are you sure that this package wasn't part of the 242 t ve...

But what i say is that Airbus AND RR had means to flight test it between TLS and XFW before entering cabin fitting.
So i find it strange
Anyway do you know if EP3 is all about durability or also SFC ?

Delivered in mai ? 6 months from now. Can't be a discovery. When was FF of the #1 EK380RR ?

Hello Karel
A performance issue on a 10 years old engine ?
What are we missing?
An EP3 package ?
I wasn't told that october 2016 will be shortened and be only 25 days
Looks like the airframe is ready
Let's see the engines
Thanks Karel
Those 747-8F seems to be already sold by Boeing to a "current boeing customer type" ?
No it's not a prerequisite for flight testing
If i recall A320NEO was flown with uncertified engines. FF 14 septembre 2014, PW1100G initial TCDS : 30 october 2015 !
Maybe the strake on the leap is closer to the nacelle / reverse joint... by not by much !
Very similar nacelle
