X Picks:

@embraer Embraer delivered 30 aircraft in the first quarter of 2025. The result is 20% higher than that recorded in the first quarter of last year (1Q24), when 25 aircraft were delivered.

@EmeraldMedia A new model too.  Challenger 3500.  IoM registered.  Smart move by @Ryanair @Bombardier #BizavEnables.

@lufthansaNews European airlines urge the EU to strengthen its aviation industry and reduce competitive disadvantages. #CarstenSpohr at the @A4Europe Summit: “We need to reduce regulatory burdens that help neither us as companies, nor our customers – nor the European economy in general.”

@SimonCalder Air-traffic control delays will be even worse this summer than last – especially at weekends. So says Ryanair boss Michael O’Leary, who helpfully suggests: “@Flightradar24 could provide most of the air-traffic control service across Europe free of charge.”
