Re: 787 vs A350 range

Hello everybody

One question
We are comparing fuel burn per hour
Perfect
Are the cruise speed for both comparable ?

Re: 787 vs A350 range

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 ?

707-320C : Range 5000 Nm it's a plain narrowbody, isnt'it ?
DC8 in excess of 5000 Nm also and closer to 6000 Nm indeed
VC10 in excess of 5000 Nm

Nothing totally new !

51 t that's still quite light.

Re: Boeing 737 MAX 10 vs Airbus A321neo analysis

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. I have been doing some analysis using actual FCOM performance data. Below is what I've produced. The biggest conclusion I can...

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

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.

Yes ...
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)

Re: A330neo MTOW increase

Higher cabin pressure, bigger windows and more space for the outboard PAX (curvature of side wall lining) is something passengers appreciate... Its hard to believe sometimes, we keep being t...
