Tweet Picks:
@KalitaAbhinav1 #New: Airbus Defence and Space will be having talks with the #Indian Air Force (IAF) in 2021 for contracting Six Airbus A330 MRTT aerial tanker in long term lease from the company.
@LeehamNews CEO David Calhoun said China’s C919 will eventually be a competitive threat. Umm…maybe not so much.
@LeehamNews Greg Smith of @Boeing says $BA expects to deliver about half of 737 MAXes in inventory delivered next year and remaining in 2022. Have to remarket white tails and reconfigure them, too.
@LeehamNews Spot on. @Boeing talks with everybody about every option. A single-aisle airplane was studied in parallel with NMA and after MAX was grounded, sales discussed with lessors early this year, too.
@LeehamNews This is significant. May have to do with requirements for third AOA sensor before 10 EIS by EASA. Third sensor unavailable till 2022. No comments from @Boeing to @PSBJaero.
