You WON'T BELIEVE Boeing’s HUGE ORDER on 737 MAX will Beat Airbus! Here's Why
It's safe to say Boeing is slowly coming out of a dark year, the gloomy order volume along with the incidents caused the programs to be pushed back. However, a Turkish airline has recently given the manufacturer another chance with an order for hundreds of Max planes. Is this the end of Boeing's dark days? And how will this order affect the company? Let's find out in today's episode!
New Massive Order
You WON'T BELIEVE Boeing’s HUGE ORDER on 737 MAX will Beat Airbus! Here's Why
Boeing and Pegasus Airlines, Türkiye’s leading low-cost carrier, have signed a major agreement to modernize and expand the airline’s single-aisle fleet. The agreement will see Pegasus Airlines order up to 200 Boeing 7 3 7 Max aircraft, including a firm order for 100 Max 10 and options for an additional 100 aircraft. The largest model in the Max family, the Max 10 can carry up to 230 passengers and has a range of up to 5,740 kilometers (3,100 nautical miles). In addition to its superior capacity and range, the aircraft also reduces fuel consumption and emissions by up to 20 percent compared to the previous generation aircraft it replaces. These outstanding advantages make the Max 10 an ideal choice for low-cost carriers, such as Pegasus Airlines, which prioritizes operational efficiency and low operating costs.
With this agreement, Pegasus Airlines will not only increase its capacity to serve more passengers on existing routes but also expand its network to new ones. At the same time, the airplane's lowest operating cost per seat will help the airline maintain its leading competitive position in the low-cost airline industry.
You WON'T BELIEVE Boeing’s HUGE ORDER on 737 MAX will Beat Airbus! Here's Why
"Boeing aircraft have been an integral part of our operations since Pegasus entered the aviation industry in 1990," said Güliz Öztürk, CEO of Pegasus Airlines. "We are pleased to be expanding our fleet with the new Boeing 7 3 7 Max 10 model aircraft. We continue to invest in our fleet in line with our growth targets in Türkiye and globally, and to expand our network by launching new routes."

I didn’t realise Airbus built jet engines…..that is what you would think watching this bot generated video.
Remember how hydropower failed for the Hindenburg?

MRTT Plus, good luck with engine maintenance :)
Firstly, Boeing crashes. Secondly, Airbus cannot supply the demand. Lastly, COMAC is certified @1:06 . If it's uncertified, it'll not be in commercial operation. Like EVs, Chinese COMAC will overtake Boeing and Airbus, it's just a matter of time. Like EV quality and innovative technology, it's by far superior in comparison to Boeing's crashing 737s and on par if not better than Airbus.......but you'll not hear this from Western Propaganda and China-Bad Influencers like this BS video uploader.
Even the AIRBUS A330 mrtt, AIRBUS A400m, AIRBUS fighter plane, AIRBUS Helicopter, HELI AKS, H225 M and Rafale's fighter plane that have "HUGE UPGRADE" can be shocked the Military industry as the same think like Embraer's "HUGE UPGRADE" on C-390 and the video as I already saw it yesterday from @FLIGAVIA about video title named "Every Nation Wants The AIRBUS A330 mrtt than BOEING KC-46" where that video make me deal it.
You see the "hard points" under the wings. Make it a flying fortress
hybis comes before the fall BO(E)ING!
Kc390 is the best
Even AI didn't get some facts right. All current A330MRTT operators didn't order the main deck cargo capability of an A330F because all assessed capacity of the lower cargo hold is enough for them. KC-46 has no lower cargo hold due to fuel tanks located there. E.g. military 463L palette capacity for a KC-46 is 18 but an A330MRTT can carry 32 with main deck cargo handling as offered for KC-X competition. This also goes for the integrated communication systems for Boeing's KC-46 which are not built by Boeing. So Airbus KC-45 would have received the same systems for US service. Why 463L pallets then your A330 can handle LD3 containers like a Boeing 747? There is a reason why Boeing did built the 787. The 767 wasn't competitive against the old A330. Now the A330neo is here and competitive even against the 787. The US Air Force did choose the A330 over the 767 due to range needed in the Pacific but was overruled by politicians. Why Japan and Italy ordered the KC-46 in the first place is quite reasonable. Both countries built a huge chunk of the 767 like Japan still does for the 787. The reason why Italy will now order A330 is quite easy to understand: price, capability and spare parts. Civil production of 767 will cease in 2027 due to ICAO emission regulations. On the other hand you can get spare parts for an A330 everywhere in the world. Italy may just join the Tanker Transport Fleet of the European Defence Agency and buy shares for additional A330 tanker aircraft. US Air Force still needs the range and offload capabilities of a KC-10. Even A330MRTT was able to offload more fuel at range than a KC-10. Maximum Take Of Weight for A330neo did rise from 233 t for A330ceo to 251 t with more range than an MD-11.
This is such a waste of time, this video is so annoyingly lazy using obviously AI generated narration that is illogical, disjointed and super repetitive using lots of words without actually saying anything. What a shit video

This news is only 5 years old.
Are you the seller?
:D ridiculous arguments, writen for Boeing's. Boeing is good brand with great engineers - then show us Europeans you don't need a US nationalist sustain with references to Nato etc. to make the best systems! Selling is - first - making a competitive product. By the ways, largest wingspan can lead to less consumption...
Good for Qantas. How can you trust Boeing when they don’t care about safety anymore?
Definitely Airbus

Qatar never wanted the Max they done it to spite airbus with the A350 saga and it backed fired in Qatar
Sorry but the best is the A340-600, with all the restrooms down in the belly.
More Airbus promos. The A-330 is OLD now.
767 first flew september 1981. A330 first flew november 1992
And the 767 is even older. The A330-MRTT+ is based on the A330 NEO that is far more modern that the Frankenstein’s monster KC-46 with wings from one model, fuselage from another and a screwed-up in-flight refuelling system that still doesn’t work properly.
The 767 is so old, it is prohibited to sell after 2027 to civil operators due to ICAO emission limits. The A330neo has better engines than a 787. BTW, how old is the 737?
@@MHalblaub Boeing is undergoing big changes. Stayed tuned.
@arunta5 The B-767 is more older than the A-330, don't tell rubbish
Thank you something that media can't show
I could not have crafted a better & more "informative" Air Bus commercial.
What black guy?... :/
And now that the U.S. citizenry choose that BLOVIATED ORANGE SHIT STAIN to be their DEER LEADER, has had nothing to do with those types of decisions.
Originally The US chose the A330 Tanker to replace the KC135, but it was quashed Senator McCain who wanted to buy a US made aircraft. Enter the 767 derivative.
Just like in land based vehicles, is it beneficial to have aircraft to use electric driven “Engines” by using a hybrid system where 1 engine creates the electric power to drive the rest and possibly charge a battery system onboard to reduce fuel consumption immensely, while improving performance, lowering weight and reducing costs.
Which genius decided that this long list of facts, figures and numbers would be best delivered by another ghastly text-to-speech robot narrator? Luckily, by the time I woke up the video had ended. 👎
Thanks for your feedback!
Do a story on the Airbus A330neo-800 jet.
We have it.
It looks to me that Italy must comply to European bid procedures and for that reason the purgage has been halted.
Thanks for your comment.
military aviation or civil aviation, it's the same thing, you have to stop your propaganda! and frankly, the quality Boeing must have been lost in the limbs of easy fric, a reminder, the B737 max is not a good plane for passengers, they have already killed! per million flights, Airbuses had far fewer serious accidents LOL
mc1 hasent killed people unlike the 737 that might or might not kill you!
If you had the chance would you fly the MC21?
Because the MC-21 never got operational! For almost 20 years…
Boeing traded their safety and quality..for a short term profit……NEVER a good idea !!!!
This is just another boeing advertisement..🙄…😴😴😴😴😴😴😴
You should watch at least 2/3 of the video to know if it is a Boeing ad or not. Even the title clearly tells you the answer!
Airbus & Boeing the two aerospace giants that's amazing.
Korean air force acquired 4 Airbus A330 MRTT's on 2018-19 over Boeing KC-46. And they are very satisfied with A330 MRTT for its performance and versatility. They were used even for civilian evacuation mission in the Middle East. The acquisition is considered as one of the best recent aircraft procurement decision by Korean air force. Highly recommended.
Thanks for the news!
It was very reasonable for Korea to order A330 because Korean Air(lines) operates 30 A330. So maintenance and pilot training is not an issue at all.
The KC-46 was hamstrung when the USAF insisted that the refuelling was to be done remotely instead of the onboard boom operator. This major change had the outcome of changes to the total fuel management and the installation of remote AV support for the mission. The A330 had boom problems actually loosing 2? inflight!
Thanks for the news!
All boom loss were during test flights. One was lost due to an F-16 rammed to hard into the boom and the other was during a test of boom retraction system. Therefor Airbus did this tests before accidents happen during operations.
This is a bit of a sales pitch for Boeing. Even says the 767 is FBW when the reality is the other way around. The A330 is vastly superior and would be use by the USAF is America wasn't so corrupt (It did win in a fair competition).
Thanks for your feedback!
@@FLIGAVIA Correct, the 767 only had a very early form of fly-by-wire controlling the spoilers, it's the typical bolt-on Boeing solution rather than a real FBW that you get in an Airbus. Boeing, that you may remember for other fine solutions such as MCAS. 🤢 Airbus got the same treatment as any other European corporation, NIH (Not Invented Here) But here in lies the fatal flaw in American protectionism. Boeing has been showered in cash by the Pentagon for the interior product. While Airbus is sharpened to a razer's edge trying to compete with protectionism, Boeing wallows in American MIC Money for inferior work, slowly falling behind as the decades roll by. Airbus builds a plane _around_ Fly-By-Wire, a technological marvel from peak European engineering thinking, build it arrived FBW. Boeing bolts bits on when forced, they will not survive the semicentennial. There's a reason that, not only can you still buy an A330, unlike the obsolete 1960s tech of the 767, but it's the 2014 A330neo. Lighter and more fuel efficient with its glorious RR Trent 7000s, it's new twisted wing with sharklets is absolute bleeding edge technology. And from all that comes the most beautiful airliner that has ever been that isn't called Concorde. I'm serious, the A330neo is a work of art. Wish we could post photos, a magnificent kite. Go, go look at images of the A330neo. Dear _god_ she's beautiful. Eventually all this molly coddling Will kill Boeing. And then America is flying Chinese airliners _Exactly_ 🤬
Canada went with A330. Converting a used A330 is a better option for many countries
That's right!
The A330 MRTT would be more versatile if they had full-sized cargo doors on the upper deck. Hard to say the A330 MRTT is "dominating" when they've only sold a couple dozen of them, while the KC-46 has orders for almost 200.
Agree!
The 200 built are mainly USAF aircraft, just because the USAF is stuck with it doesn't mean it's the best tanker.
Right now there are more than 60 A330MRTT flying and about 90 KC-46 delivered to US Air Force. Boeing doesn't has orders for 200 tankers.
I've been love to hear about AIRBUS' new secret weapon for the future.
Boeing is being KILLED by their unions with their demands and lack of performance. In fact, IF the trend continues, the Boeing employee will demand themselves out of a job !!!!!!!
It's being killed by bad management, desire to keep costs as low as possible and profits high for shareholders regardless of decaying concern for quality.
I'dd better have Boeing employees demand themselves out of their jobs than having their management enforce me out of my life
Well one thing wrong here is that the A330MRTT was flying operationally and successfully before the USAF contract was floated. And becasue it was a flying aircraft rather than a CGI it won on every test. And then Boeing's paid Senators stepped in, cancelled the contract and forced a rerun on a very narrow specification. So Airbus and their partner said 'No Thanks'. The KC-46 is a typical 'post 1999 Boeing' boondoggle.
Thanks for the news!
Smart. Boeing screwed up again. Build the 757 and scrap the 737
My guess, Everybody knows Boeing aircraft comes with possible sanction tag attached!
Not every nation wants the A330 MRTT. How many nations are there?
Well lets put it this way Klaus: The only Air Forces to choose the KC-46 are the USAF (after it was forced to having chosen the A330 MRTT), the Japanese (who always by US military aircraft) and the Israelis (who get them for free). Every other competition has been won by the A330MRTT.
Boeing oiled their revolving doors in Washington
