The new happiness Airlines Hebei Airlines two customers
After two years, a 6 day of the ninth China international aviation and Aerospace Exhibition (hereinafter referred to as the "air Zhuhai") in Zhuhai today opened the curtain, including the China aviation industry, China COMAC and Boeing and Airbus, domestic and foreign aircraft manufacturers hope to be "in the China largest airshow feast gains".
Post reporters yesterday from the China COMAC was informed that, today Chinese's commander announced 50 Airbus C919 orders, customers were happy aviation, Hebei aviation and America GE aviation Financial Services Company (GECAS). This means that the C919 has not yet been flying, has received 380 orders 15 clients.
In fact, held yesterday at the sixth session of China International Aerospace Forum, Chinese Shangfei new orders have surfaced. Chinese COMAC deputy general manager Shi Jianzhong revealed, at present, C919 has received 380 orders from 15 customers. Prior to this, the C919 customer number is 13, 330 orders. Because GECAS is C919 users, this means added two users -- happiness and Hebei airlines.
According to the plan, C919 will be in the first flight in 2014, 2016 delivery of the user. Chinese business flying another domestic aircraft ARJ21 regional jet under the flag has not delivered to the user, still in evidence collection process, ARJ21 will be flying in the air show. In accordance with the other large aircraft maker's experience, a new aircraft R & D funds are often in the 12000000000 -150 billion in sales, the breakeven point in 300-400 frame.
Compared China business and China Aviation Industry and other domestic aircraft makers, Boeing and Airbus slightly "calm". Boeing and Airbus are to the Morning Post reporters, they have not announced during the Zhuhai show new orders, Boeing is never exhibited any entity model aircraft, only the full range of aircraft. According to people close to the Boeing that Boeing originally intended to borrow, domestic airlines, but due to time, finally failed, but in the past the Zhuhai air show, Boeing also is not always a real plane display.
It is understood, Airbus will introduce the relevant situation of its "biofuels" as well as the A380 today, the Chinese domestic operation A380 route only Chinese Southern Airlines [0.73% Funds Research Report], a total of order 5 A380, has delivered 4 aircraft.
The Airbus continue to promote A380 in China time is also quite afford much food for thought, on the 9 day, the HNA Group Chairman Chen Feng to Reuters revealed that, due to the economic slowdown, HNA Group has to slow the aircraft fleet expansion, or will consider cancel A380 orders, "A380 such a large aircraft, this year, 10, who has this drive."
Chen Feng says, Hai Hang is working with Airbus Company to negotiate the A380 aircraft orders, saying too much aircraft purchase quantity is not, "aircraft order, but it must be so much, so fast, is another matter."
HNA's Hongkong aviation autobiography A380 orders "twists and turns", the first is the message says, because the carbon tax dispute between China and the EU, China uses including orders for 10 A380 jets, 55 Airbus aircraft in order, but after the said by Airbus denied. On the other hand, Hongkong Airlines is also facing the expansion of unfavorable situation, the Hongkong to London, all business class flights in sailing after a few months, because of the problem of passenger traffic in the 9 month the grounded, this also let people doubt whether Hongkong aviation passenger routes are large enough to support future A380 aircraft operations.
However, some analysts believe that, even if the sea off the A380 order, it is also likely to put the order into A330 and A320 aircraft orders.
Airbus Chinese response to yesterday morning paper reporter said, the Airbus orders did not change, as the industry practice, won't comment on between the company and the customer's business communication.
