Planes are designed the way they are for a reason. They've been built in the same general shape since WW1. Why change it? I don't mean there aren't better ways to design aircraft, I just don't believe this blend-wing design is the right idea...
Okay, absolutely love them. Specially the last design. Can’t wait for them to actually come into service, although 2035 is a bit too far off for my liking. 2025 or at the very least 2030. They better not push it back any further than that.
Honestly, this tech looks amazing, but I've been hearing rumours about this for quite long and it never seems to materialize. Especially the 3rd concept plane, this kind of design has been proposed so many times before that I'm really skeptical about it.
Especially with planes. At the moment batteries are too heavy and take too long to recharge for a plane. It’ll be interesting to see if someone makes a battery powered plane any time (relatively) soon.
@@Formula1st There already are quite a few battery powered production planes out there. Just look at the Pipstrel Alpha Electro, or Virus Electro (renamed Velis in 2020, because duh). Those are in production, but don't forget conversions, like a Cessna eCaravan, which took flight just a couple months ago. And I'm not even counting solar planes, coz they've been around for years. Oh, and Boeing has demonstrated a flying hydrogen FCEV plane back in 2008. Airbus defo isn't first in this, although admittedly their concepts are by far the largest. Still, they won't have anything in the air for at least 12-15 years, while the eCaravan has already done quite a few miles in the air, and Alpha E is a regular sight in some parts of the world. Oh, and there are electric gliders. You know, instead of being towed into the air, they take off with a tiny electric engine and then glide like normal gliders. This is pretty common everywhere, although normal motor gliders are still more popular.
@@wojciechmuras553 But there aren’t really any airliner style electric planes are there? Should’ve been more clear, sorry. But there are definitely not any common ones. Do you think solar could help with airliners or no? Tbh I hadn’t really thought of using them for common use.
On April 15, 1988, the Tu-155 aircraft made its first flight, the power plant of which operated on cryogenic fuel - liquid hydrogen. The NK-88 engine, which had no analogues in the world at that time, was developed at the Samara engine-building enterprise Kuznetsov. The initiative to create the aircraft itself, which used a cryogenic type of fuel instead of aviation kerosene, belonged to the Tupolev design bureau.
As an avid flyer, I'm really excited for this blended wing concept to come on the market. It would be groundbreaking innovation. I'm also loving that Airbus are pushing their science to become the first manufacturer in Zero emissions aircrafts. And to think all of this: new aerodynamics, new engineering, new emissions, a complete rebrand essentially ALL within the decade. This will be a rapid transformation, it's just mind boggling. 😮❤
@@arvedludwig3584 Testing and devellopement are two very different things tho.

@Martian First of all, the A380 have never "crashed", use proper terminology please. Secondly, it was not the economic success that Airbus predicted, but they have still sold more than 200 and a few more are still under construction. So we will see them around for many years to come.
They already measure in mach. At a certain altitude they have to switch to mach number, because otherwise you can exceed the operating limits of the aircraft.

I hope that any Airbus Employees or Employees from other Aircraft Factories see this message and possibly ask their bosses to either drop these ugly planes, or at least put some windows in them, because if not these planes have windows fitted in them if they are put into service then I wouldn't put my feet aboard them.

As I am a Boeing guy, the turbofan concept is spot on. Direct competition for Boeing's 797 (Middle of Market) idea and will still be flying passengers before Boeing gets off of the ground.
Mr Aviator Boii They will be. If they didn’t need room for pilots in the front they wouldn’t have space for people in the front. The front of those planes look like 2 man cockpits. We’re going to be flying planes far into the future!
wing body a too fututuristic concept? that concept born in 1910 and first effective flying wings were build beetwen1930 ~1940. I think its time to use them in civil aviation too, no?
@@lucaallemann5941 yes But they have never been used for commercial aviation... Even electric motors are born before diesel motors But they are however more modern To Be used in Cars today...
Hydrogen and zero emission together are oxymoric considering how we produce hydrogen today. Besides, using electrolysis (to produce hydrogen) supplied by wind or solar energy is unrealistic (or just extremely expensive). The planes are very nice though but this is only for the "green" image of the company.
But they are not producing this aircraft today. I assume this is their plan if hydrogen economy ever take off. In any case they have some years to change their mind.
Still likely to be way more efficient than directly burning gasoline. Large powerplants can produce energy far more efficiently than onboard engines ever could. What I would be worried about is not necessarily the energy costs to produce hydrogen energy, but storage costs (due to its very low density), the cost to airports to buy new refueling equipment to support hydrogen, and how Airbus would handle the safety risks of Hydrogen being incredibly flammable / potentially explosive should a crash or fuel leak ever occur.
gulag true that, but it’s just hard to know if hydrogen fuel would becoming a thing in future, considering now the making, storing and transportation of hydrogen fuel is extremely expensive and inefficient. More so than Lithium-ion batteries.
Many challenges to overcome but this is an exciting possibility if Airbus can deliver. High pressure gaseous hydrogen instead of cryogenic liquid could offer better energy density per unit of weight but impose even more volume/aerodynamic/structural challenges.
How is this the first time I am hearing about this? This should have been front page news all over the world! Credit to Airbus, I hope they follow through on this, I will look forward to taking zero emissions flights in the 2035. :)
Kevin J the 787 was a commercial success this is a generation beyond the 787 and 797 I think the 797 will be the last Conventionally fueled airliner. Can you believe it... the end of the Jet fuel age?
I assume that the narrow-body turbofan will replace the A220 / A320neo Family and the blended-wing body turbofan will replace the A330neo / A350 XWB. Thanks for the video, Airbus!
Well, a range of about 2000 nm is actually perfect. High enough to cover most distances in Europe and across North America, and for a lot of destinations in Asia. Good Job Airbus, make sure we can fly emission-free asap!
what, are this picutres made by the new flight simulator? because these pictures are really nice and would be wonderful if these planes would came into the flight sim .
Will airbus reintroduce all the planes like the a350,a380 and the rest of the planes when the zero emissions planes come out but with zero emissions engines or will they be retired?
According to the DLR, planes using hydrogen as fuel and emitting water as exhaust damage the climate just as much if not more than conventional planes. Do these concept planes exhaust water?
This depends on how you get the hydrogen. If you get it by splitting water with fossil fuel energy, its just as bad for the climate. If you however use algae to produce it directly from water and sunlight (see this: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biohydrogen#Production_by_algae ), its better for climate.
@@hermannabt8361 can you provide the link, since this makes me quite curious. There must be something else in the exhaust then thats different from water.
@@syrrath8096 www.dlr.de/content/en/articles/news/2019/02/20190627_climate-impact-of-clouds-formed-from-aircraft-condensation-trail.html "...suggesting that contrail cirrus clouds are having a slightly greater impact on the climate than the total global carbon dioxide emissions from aircraft."
@@hermannabt8361 I think you understood something wrong. The contrails form because of soot particles in the exhaust. Soot is a byproduct of incomplete combustion of (in this case) something with carbon content. Burning H2 does not produce soot. The water in the atmosphere condenses because of these particles functioning as a condensation nucleus. Then, they freeze and block eaths heat radiation from reaching space. With a fuel that does not contain anything that can produce soot particles, like hydrogen (burned with oxygen) the amount and volume of contrails would be drastically limited to only form on whatever is already in the atmosphere, and whatever microparticles loosen themselves from the parts of the engine. Hydrogen fuel (when burned) produces nothing else than water vapour, and without anything to condensate on, there will be next to no contrails.
Im sure it gonna be really nice to fly, especially because of the high lift capabilities of the Blended Wings Design. Cant wait to see how it looks inside ;)
I noticed that in the renders the tails of all those future aircrafts are quite different from the current ones: they are much slimmer and...without a rudder?🤔. Can anyone PLEASE explain what's the technology behind it? I'm dying to know, since it seems revolutionary!

I just don’t get why companies seem to love this blended wing thing. To me it looks horrible, I just like to stick to current designs.
I assume that the narrow-body turbofan will replace the A220 / A320neo Family and the blended-wing body turbofan will replace the A330neo / A350 XWB.
Thanks for the video, Airbus!
"Hydrogen turbofan (x2)"
- Shows 6 turbines
You do realise the first plane shown only has two turbofans, right?
It doesn't say turbines, it says fan
Well, a range of about 2000 nm is actually perfect. High enough to cover most distances in Europe and across North America, and for a lot of destinations in Asia. Good Job Airbus, make sure we can fly emission-free asap!
Elon Musk laughted so hard when saw this video.
*when he saw
The Blended-wing one is the one I'm most excited about.
The other ones are basically regular planes with new engines.
Wow Airbus you are able to surprise me again!!! This is magnificent😎
What are some science/technology events in 2005 that were promised would be in use by 2020? With accompanying futuristic-sounding techno music?
0:28. Is that an Avenger Quinnjet
Becoming more and more in love with Airbus. Superb and ambitious!
Yes finally, I have been waiting for a new aircraft.
Lets start some naming guys.
It’s Airbus that’s easy
A360
A370
A390
OR A210 for the little turboprop
@@nikobelic4251 ooh,A210,I like that
We waited 15 years for the reveal, now we shall wait another for the plane
How do you make the Plane and the Hydrogen? With solar and wind power? It's only ZEROe after everything else emits like crazy.
Is the first one the A350E???
Do you think we could employ ETOPS on these right away, or will we need to wait a couple of years?
what, are this picutres made by the new flight simulator? because these pictures are really nice and would be wonderful if these planes would came into the flight sim .
That turbofan model looks like baby 787 Dreamliner. It's front portion and winglets looks similar to 787.
Will airbus reintroduce all the planes like the a350,a380 and the rest of the planes when the zero emissions planes come out but with zero emissions engines or will they be retired?
What a time to be alive. Hopefully this concept really will become reality.
the third plane is BEAUTIFUL :D
According to the DLR, planes using hydrogen as fuel and emitting water as exhaust damage the climate just as much if not more than conventional planes. Do these concept planes exhaust water?
This depends on how you get the hydrogen. If you get it by splitting water with fossil fuel energy, its just as bad for the climate. If you however use algae to produce it directly from water and sunlight (see this: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biohydrogen#Production_by_algae ), its better for climate.
@@syrrath8096 no, the DLR study specifically referred to contrails created by the water exhaust.
@@hermannabt8361 can you provide the link, since this makes me quite curious. There must be something else in the exhaust then thats different from water.

"...suggesting that contrail cirrus clouds are having a slightly greater impact on the climate than the total global carbon dioxide emissions from aircraft."
@@hermannabt8361 I think you understood something wrong. The contrails form because of soot particles in the exhaust. Soot is a byproduct of incomplete combustion of (in this case) something with carbon content. Burning H2 does not produce soot.
The water in the atmosphere condenses because of these particles functioning as a condensation nucleus. Then, they freeze and block eaths heat radiation from reaching space.
With a fuel that does not contain anything that can produce soot particles, like hydrogen (burned with oxygen) the amount and volume of contrails would be drastically limited to only form on whatever is already in the atmosphere, and whatever microparticles loosen themselves from the parts of the engine.
Hydrogen fuel (when burned) produces nothing else than water vapour, and without anything to condensate on, there will be next to no contrails.
Crazy how concept that might fly in 2 decades are designed now.
Hope to fly on that blended-wing aircraft. Looks really futuristic. Would be better if it was pilotless though.
I like the look of the turbofan
They look awesome 👌 I'm so happy that we'll still have Turbofan and Turboprop engines in the future 😁
Airbus: enjoy our plane in 2035
FS2020: hold my airplane
It will come just as the other concepts.
Cool!! Can’t wait to see this in real life
Blended Wing looks awesome!
Im sure it gonna be really nice to fly, especially because of the high lift capabilities of the Blended Wings Design.
Cant wait to see how it looks inside ;)
0:08 skyliner S220
0:21 Airbus A72-600L
0:33 Boeing 797 blended wing
The 737 max has 0 emission
I noticed that in the renders the tails of all those future aircrafts are quite different from the current ones: they are much slimmer and...without a rudder?🤔. Can anyone PLEASE explain what's the technology behind it? I'm dying to know, since it seems revolutionary!
If this comes out, it will change the world forever and possibly even come to save it.
