With receding regional aviation competitors, Embraer studies a return to a market that hasn’t had the choice of an all-new product in decades. Unique quirks of the turboprop market and Embraer technology planning will pressure E3 market potential. Big leaps in efficiency of single-aisle jets compresses the list of small markets that need a big turboprop.
There is no all-new single-aisle airplane coming from Boeing -- at least not anytime soon, despite reports to the contrary. Yet, the company earlier this year started looking at major revamp of the 737 Max to compete with the Airbus A321XLR.
Boeing floats a new 200 to 250-seater single-aisle, while its most important customer eyes 150 seaters.
Airbus tells suppliers to be ready for a 2021 rate increase, while Mitsubishi nears shelving its SpaceJet.
Looking closely at Boeing's 20-year outlook, China's first jetliner gets its first real slice of the demand pie.
Deteriorating U.S., China relations loom over Boeing and its 737 Max recertification.
Embedded inside the strategic assumptions underpinning flying with hydrogen paint a very different future for aviation than the one to which the industry has become accustomed over the last 40 years.
The industrial and social dynamics differ radically from those in the United States and elsewhere. The U.S. has provided limited payroll support for its airlines, loans for small businesses, and funds for national security-oriented aerospace companies.

You can only blame so much on a pandemic. Like a pre-existing condition that can make a case of COVID-19 deadly versus asymptomatic, the business model governing engine makers and their relationship to aircraft manufacturers made them exceptionally vulnerable. The collapse of global commercial aviation merely revealed the fundamental weakness baked into the relationship.
The first in a two-part series on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the business of building commercial aircraft...
With FAA recertification flights underway, Boeing's last leg to service re-entry for the 737 Max has begun. Comac makes a triple ARJ21 delivery, signaling an important new phase for the China's aerospace manufacturing proving ground. Airbus autonomous airliner flights trials wrap up and illustrate the different paths toward letting and aircraft make their own decisions.
