@businessinsider British Airways’ new electric robot has cut pushback delays by 54% at one of the world’s busiest airports.
@COMACAmerica July 12 was a successful day for the #C919 program as the static prototype underwent 2.5G wing load testing in Shanghai. Watched by COMAC engineers and executives alike, its wings were brought to a 150% wing load, wingtips rising nearly 3 meters, with results meeting expectations.
@ghimlay .@BoeingCEO says @embraer brand is strong and wants to continue to build on that, when asked if the proposed JV plans to rebrand the E2 family #FIA18.
@juliejohnsson As Boeing’s NMA nears, GE is `wrestling’ with how to make $$$ on a new engine. The prospect: splitting a market with Airbus, dividing it again with two jet variants — and then again with another enginemaker. With @_benkatz #FIA18 #avgeek.
@vl_bryan Air Canada CEO, which has budget unit Rouge, says “not throwing in the towel yet” to Norwegian on low-cost long-haul. #FIA18 (panel hosted by @MaxK_J )
