Today
commercial aviation is booming and has established itself as one of the fastest
growing industries in the world. The aircraft industry is not only seen as a
profitable investment but also as a measure of economic progress and
technological advancement. This extremely competitive industry has led to major
developments both in the operational business and public participation.
Innovative
technology has led to multiple projects that are widening the scope and horizon
of commercial aviation. Some recently launched and still developing passenger
aircrafts by Airbus and Boeing have set a new standard in passenger comfort and
profitability.
1. The A330neo
is a twin aisle long haul wide body jet which is the modified version of the original
A330. The term ‘neo’ stands for new engine design and the aircraft features new
wingtips to boost its range and fuel efficiency.
2. The Airbus
A350-1000 is a twin aisle long haul wide body jet that is designed to carry an
extensive load of passengers and cargo for extremely long distances. This
aircraft is undergoing development after the explosive popularity of its
predecessor, the A350-900 ULR which currently can fly further than any other
aircraft in the world evident by the fact that it will shortly operate the
world’s longest flight.
3. The Boeing
787-10 Dreamliner is a twin aisle jet that is capable of carrying a pretty
heavy load of passengers with ease. It is mostly made of carbon fibre making it
extremely lightweight and thereby fuel efficient whilst giving it a strong
fuselage. The aircraft also features improved air conditioning, upgraded
engines and better mobility.
4. The Boeing
777X is a long haul wide body airliner and is the latest ongoing development in
the Boeing 777 family. The aircraft is a revolution and has pushed the
boundaries of design engineering. Apart from its impressive engine technology
the aircraft also features folding wingtips that maximize efficiency among
other improvements inspired from earlier Boeing aircrafts.
According
to the study “The
Global Commercial Aircraft Market 2018-2028” says that major
developments in the commercial aviation industry are being carried out by the
two most renowned aircraft manufacturers in the world- American Boeing and
European Airbus. Both these companies are the two most influential players in
the aviation market. Incorporating new technologies along with design
innovations has put these two companies at the top of the industry and they are
a favorite among airlines from around the world that are constantly seeking
more efficient operations. These two aviation giants are not only dominating
the market but are creating competition for each other as well which results in
aviation being made more affordable and manageable both for airlines as well as
passengers. However, other countries are also trying to establish their
foothold in the aviation industry. China’s Comac has recently launched its C919
which is China’s first big airliner and aims to compete with the Boeing 737 and
Airbus A320. Russia’s United Aircraft Corporation has just launched its Irkut
MS-21. This project is being backed by Russian President Vladimir Putin, who
wants to boost the country’s aerospace industry to compete with Airbus and
Boeing.
These
developments come as a result of a major shift in trend from capacity oriented
aviation to range oriented aviation. Modern aircraft manufacturers are now
developing aircrafts that focus more on distance travelled and fuel efficiency.
The commercial aviation industry is witnessing the dawn of technological
advancements with Boeing and Airbus leading the way for future developments
whilst catering to the ever increasing public demand as flying becomes more
affordable.
