I do think airbus could change the A220 to fit into it’s plans especially if it is fitted with the same cop pit that Airbus uses already in the A319 and A320 and the rest of the planes that use. But it would probably mean making the A220 a little bit wider but I think it’s worth considering that the A220 does sell well in Europe and in America and Canada so I think it would be a big mistake if Airbus stopped making it completely especially when the likes of delta airlines and other airlines like it have placed very big orders for the planes. Because they don’t use the A320 or the A319 on short flights or on longer flights
I agree the A220 isn’t going anywhere because British airways has placed very a big order for the A220 and Air France also KLM is replacing all of their A318/319 with the A220 and delta airlines has ordered 150 of the A220 in two different models the A220-100 and the A220-300 and British Airways can’t fly the A319/318 to London city airport or any place in Channel Islands and they have no plans to order any of them so they are ordering more A220-300
Note: Bombardier started toying with the C-Series concept in the late 1990s when it saw the CRJ it inherited from Canadair was reaching ts limits and airlines wanted bigger jets. Bombardier had a huge setback with near bankruptcy in circa 2003 due to it refusing to acknowledge that orders would be cut by 9-11 and that demand for CRJ-200 would evaporate, and despite getting recapotalised (at the cost of losing its original business for snowmobiles and recreational products (now BRP), the project was still on backburner because at the same time, it trarget launch customer Northwest with a huge litte of DC-09s needing to be repoaced had gone Chapter 11 and was to be bought by Delta who would have surplis fleet. Similarly, American couldn't wait and started to replace its MDxx planes with 737s. So Bombardier had to look for new launch customers for its C-Series which took quite a few years.
What do u mean North American design and supply chain? The wings come from Belfast, the fuselage comes from China, the doors come from India. It’s an international supply chain just like all airbus aircraft. This video is full of misinformation and gross over simplification
The 220 stretch is way over speculated. Bombardier optimized designe for 100 seat (since it was as evolution from its CRJ 900 which had reached its limits) with a stretch as the C-Series 300. It is very doubtful any work had been done on a 500. And it is not clear that the aircraft would be optimized for -500 size and have any advantage over 320. However, for an airline such as Air Blatic whose fleet is solely A220s, it would be good to have a larger aircraft. But such a stretch wouyld only be of use to airlines who only have A220s in their fleet.
It is not over speculated as it is the most modern narrow body aircraft with a composite wing, lightweight fuselage and fly-by-wire controls. The Airbus CEO said the A220-500 is not a question of if but a question of when. Namely, once the programme is under cost, they will launch the 500 version. They have customers like AIr France asking for it. Of course a A220-500 has an advantage over a A320 when it is tonnes lighter. The A220-500 according to Bombardier Engineers is they have had that plane running in their simulations for years. The Airbus Engineers are not concerned about cannibalising sales when they already have their wing of the future project running, and are planning their next A320.5
@@Adscam The C-Series was the upgrade path from the CRJs which had reached its limits on how long they could make it, yet demand from airlines was for bigger aircraft, not for regionals anymore. When C-Series was cogitated it was always for the unfilled 100 seat market. Yes, the -100 and -300 , when launched were bigger. The original target prior to Bombardier's first near bankrupcy (circa 2004) was the DC-9/MD8x replacement cycle in the USA. But during that time, Northwest went chapter 11 and acquired by Delta and no intentions to replace the DC-9s so Bombardier lost the launch customer they had been eying. And American didn't wait and ordered 737s to replace their MD8x fleet. So when Bombardier got back on its feet and restarted C-Series, the customers who were interested (Swiss and Air Baltic) wanted lightly bigger but not 737 or 320 size.
Canada did not contribute to the C-Serioes project except for minor tax breaks at launch. Québec paid for construction of new hangars at Mirabel which would be leased and provided big tax breaks to both Bobardier and Pratt & Whitney ( the C-Series was lauch customer for geared turbofan). (the above applies to initial launch, not the story after Bombardier ran out of cash and was closed to bankruptcy (again).
You missed a big step: In 2016, fancing bankuptcy and already in process of liquidating assets, Bombardier spun off the C-Series project to CSALP (C Series Aircraft Limited Partnership) witrh the Québec Government getting a 40% stake at the cost of $1b, valuing project at %2.5b. Bombardier then only had 60%. In 2017/2018, because Bombardier had no funds to complete project and customers did not want to buy aircrafy from company with no future, the Québec government signed deal with Airbus where CSALP would double number of shares and donate 50% to Airbus. Bombardier ended up with 30% and Québec just under 20%. That deal still had financial obligations to Bombardier to move from building prototypes to industrialized productsion. Bombardier did not have the funds for its share of project, so in In febriary 2020, Bomabrdier sold ist 30% stake for $591 million (valuing project at $1.97b), with Airbus raising its share to 75% and Omvestissement Québec raising ist to 25% of CSALP, and at that point, CSALP was renamed Airbus Canada LP.
But for some reason there were zero orders in 2024.... en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Airbus_A220_orders_and_deliveries That doesn't mean the plane is doomed, but there is something quite serious going on. Maybe can be fixed. Maybe not.
There is nothing to replace the A220, it's well liked, and airlines want it. Clickbait titles don't help your point. Airbus don't intend to stretch the 220. A very negative viseo, with not much truth in it. I will not subscribe to you.(satire)
Designed by a company that was going bankrupt and given for free to Airbus, the A220 has a lot of flaws. Airbus did not menage to make it profitable yet.
The A220 isn't going anywhere. It's replacing all of the A318/319's, B717's, smaller 737's and the larger twin props.
thanks for your feedback
This channel is full of it !
It's coming back they recently had plans here in the UK. Can't say more but it's definitely not over.
Don't be doomed AIRBUS A220 ! I love you A220 !

The aircraft manufacturer Bombardier is pronounced "bom-bar-dee-ay", not "bom-bar-deer".

The A220 is leading the new development of Airbus avionics and Airbus will adapt the rest of the fleet with their new models with the A220 techno
thanks for your comment
Note: not pronounced Bombar deer, it is pronounced Bombard yeah. (yé)
I see Fokker Next Gen bought by Airbus and rebrand it as A250
Yep thanks for your feedback

Delta Airlines 45 A220-100’s and 26 A220-300’s with 74 more on order a wonderful airplane You are full of Boloney

Probably a worthwhile video, but by the fourth or fifth time the name of the aircraft manufacturer was mispronounced, I had to click out of it.
My mistake :( Please support us more
Needs an alternative engine !!!.
Too many sitting idle waiting for service or replacement engines..
Some carriers already retiring the type .

@@eduardomeller6926 So, what's your point?
@@deniermurch8693 My point is: this is not a clickbait title. The arguments used here by the author of the video are reasonable.
Eng is the problem
good old bumbledeer
I doubt it’s the end of the airframe. This is just sectionalism.
Thanks for your comment. ✈️✈️
We need B-737-200 MAX ;)
Waste of my time. Learn how to pronounce BOMBARDIER!
It is not a good aircraft because of its exclusive engines.
thanks for sharing
Wrong. It’s a highly efficient aircraft BECAUSE of its engines and reduced weight airframe.
