Airbus' CEO Would Like Another A220 Engine Option
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 ก.ย. 2024
- The Airbus A220 currently has two models in production: The -100 and -300 in production. Both of these variants are exclusively powered by Pratt & Whitney PW1500G engines, which have experienced reliability issues - particularly over the past year or so. The planemaker previously indicated it was open to bids from other manufacturers, including General Electric/Safran joint-venture CFM International and current supplier Pratt & Whitney. Let’s look at the possibilities in today’s video!

Having a second option is a great idea, look at the 787 dreamliner it has 2 engine options so if one of the options has a problem the other option is safe
Same with the A320neo...
Really? I thought the B787 was Rolls-Royce only.
@@michaelrmurphy2734 70% of the 787 engine market has gone to GE because of how much RR kept screwing up the fixes to the fan blades cracking issue that finally got resolved 2 years ago
A CFM LEAP-1A variant for all A220 variants could make the aircraft more appealing.
Yes both the A220 and the Embraer E2 need a longer lasting engine option.
More thrust for the A220-500 please! Make the A220-500LR with exceptional shortfield capability as the standard model. Airlines want an A220-500 that can outrange, outclimb and outfly the A320neo and 737MAX in every respect.
He does know what a NEO means for the CEO, right? 😂
Oh my, what a pun....

It's no coincidence that this is happening. Rolls Royce are already building a scaled Ultrafan for A220 and A320 series. For reasons we have yet to learn they don't wanna announce just how far they are with it.
I think the cargo space would be decisive factor in choosing between the two categories. There is also the range factor. A company planning a long haul trans Atlantic flight can not go for the A220 variant. I think both A220 and A320 families of aircraft perfectly completes Airbus's single aisle family of aircraft
I don’t know how easy it would be with legalities. I know PW put a bunch of its own development money into the C-Series/A220 which helps explain single source (much like 737M and CFM). Doesn’t surprise me though with supply chain issues on both sides, it’s a hedge. The PW1500G (19/24) is much less troublesome compared to the PW1100G (24/27/33)based on my experience.
The PW1100G has issues itself, see Go First...
It's always good for planemakers to have engine options because of relationships that different airlines have with different planemakers.
A good example is Korean Air. They decided to replace their aging A330 fleet with the Boeing 787 because of their relationship with GE. Airbus only offers a Rolls Royce engine for the A330neo so they lost a big customer as a result.
The A350 has the same problem. No other option than Rolls Royce.
Korean specifically, it's a lot more complicated than that. A division of the company is a supplier for Boeing and the 787. They in effect are giving themselves even more business. Their are also the political ties with the US since they need military support against the north and China. Probably had very little to do with engine choice.
@@johniii8147 I respectfully disagree. Korean Air has a very diverse fleet of aircraft. They have a fleet of 158 aircraft, and 53 are Airbus, including A380, A320neo, A330 and even A220 aircraft.
Their decision to go with the 787 to replace the A330 is because of the GE engines. Korean Air doesn't have Rolls Royce engines in its fleet that I know of, and both the A350 and A330neo only offer Rolls Royce engines. Korean Air has neither aircraft in its fleet.
Yes they could do the A220AEO for the current-100 and -300 variants. Have the Leap 1A both on A220-500 and A220AEO
I think it would be vital for the success of the A220-500 to have a 2nd engine option. It should also be further investigated for eventually making a 2nd engine option available for newer a220-100, and -300 production. Essentially looking into the possibility of modifying, and upgrading future production models for the acceptance of 2 different engines.
repetition is a little annoying
Agreed to have the alternative engine....
They could shift their offerings: build the A220-500(neo), cancel the A320neo if there's no more demand, make the A321neo as the new base model since it's more popular now, and make an A322neo. The A322neo will also probably be Airbus' answer to the Middle of the Market segment.
That's just my opinion tho..
There needs to be a A220-500 and A220-700, definitely with 2 engine options.
P&W really dropped the ball with their preventable GTF quality issues strapping resources to max capacity.
They may never recover in the commercial aircraft market.
LEAP 1D then??
Yes but they should keep the nice see-through look from the front.
The a350 and a330neo must also have other options for the latter to attract attention from previous customers with different options selected
Great news for the Airlines to have a choice of engine since the current P&W engine are unreliable hot end distress after just 1200-1500fc
This is not a problem with the amazing Fokker F130NG, They can get any engine option they want!.
Is that the proposed reintroduction of the F100.
@@awatercolourist Yes, It will be finished anytime now, They have been working on it for 10 years now!
For real, Fokker Technologies is doing great making aircraft components and investing in electric small airplanes.
@@RoderikvanReekum Thanks, Roderik! 😃
What about UltraFan smallest thrust with 25000lbs
The real question is, I'm not sure how interested CFM really is as supplier. They are jammed full as it it with all the 737 and 320 engines they will have to supply. I doubt it's high on the priority list yet for the 220 for a low volume aircraft to develop and produce.
P&W durability problems are greater then the introduction of a 2nd manufacturer? Or maybe the 2nd engine could fit into A320/1 too?
Are the New engine option problem free?
What about a230,240,50,260,270and 280 and the 210 aircraft to be in line with a300 series ftom a320,a340 50,60,70 and 80 series plus whT about a221 a219 series of aircraft
Airbus aren't thinking that far ahead.
Yes
Why there is not a reserve EMERGENCY engine at back point of air craft like this🤔
Shame all this thing kicked off with Russia. The PD14 would have been an interesting option.
the further stretched A220-500 variant might just cannibalize A320-200 Neo sales in some markets . . . especially low cost budget carriers in Europe & South East Asia . . .
Yes, sure, and also invite Rols Royce. Competition makes way to innovation.
They need a 2nd engine option for the a220
CMF could easily develop an engine for the A220
They could but there’d be delivery delays given how popular the Leap 1A is on A320neo where it’s a choice and the 1B is exclusive to 737 Max
2nd option, the only answer should be YES!
A good idea for airlines.✈️💗☮️🕊️🌍
Supplier parts are effecting all engine manufacturers so all options have the same challenges.
This would be smart. This may be a kill shot for the E-jets
The A220 family are transcontinental medium-haul aircraft and no longer compete with the E-jets on most routes. Airlines are now demanding A220 long-haul versions for ocean-crossing routes. The E-jets will keep the regional market and would be unaffected.
@@texasabbott exactly... the Ejets cant compete NOW... and with engine options the A220 will become much more desirable.
@@ricardokowalski1579except in the regional market that everyone seems for forget exits. In current production, there is little between an E170 and a Grand Caravan, save maybe the ATR. Embraer is the only one in the large regional market.
@@jaysmith1408 yep. And ATR/Leonardo has already said that there is no demand or reason to develop an improved ATR, much less a new airframe.
For reasons that are beyond me, the regional market is in a deep slump.
👍
@@ricardokowalski1579 well when you’re the manufacturer of the only airplane, you don’t really have to try that hard to sell your product with any demand at all. Everyone flew on wright flyers….in 1903.
they can always use b737 engines
I thought the CSeries had a RR/BMW engine as the base model? Or was that before the Airbus takeover?
Nope, designed with Pratts under the wings.
Surprised Rolls Royce hasn’t made a peep. Guess the Trent’s are keeping them busy enough.
A220-500 NEO and A220-500 XLR with dual engine option
Besides the discussion in the video, as a Vietnam Airlines' customer, I wonder why they have that long video on the engines that it made up like 1-third of this video 😂😂😂
Maybe they could make a A220-700 to replace the A321 so basically scrap the A320 series completely.
Could they not just use the same engines that are on the A320.
Really it should be called an AEO
Why not Perm engine (Russian)?
Why oh why don't RR make an engine for smaller planes - 220, 320, 737 etc. I feel they are missing a trick somehow with the amount of these smaller single isle planes now in existance.
They might launch an ultra fan variant to compete. Basically a mini version. But it’s probably for the plane that replaced the A320. Just not viable to spend billions developing a CFM competitor based on likely sales.
Well they are making the engine s for the B52 to replace those Pratt's don't think it would work on the 220 though
@@ronparrish6666 those are the engines taken from a business jet so yes they are too small for a a220. Only enough for the b52 as there are 8 of them
CFM LEAP 1C 💪
That's called the Comac C919
@@Spy_Agent5 yes they could use the same for the A220
Too bad they can’t use the a320 engine on the a220-500.
What's wrong with rolls royce engines
Ge- 90s are reliable
Far too big and powerful for the A220.
@@heidirabenau511 it was a joke 🤣 you know...
Rolls Royce is already busy.
Give us those new ones your making for the B52 just put 2 on each side
