Boeing Fails To Stir Up Business At The Paris Air Show
With the Air France calamity still awfully unsullied in everybody?s thoughts, above all individuals in Paris (where numerous of the victims were from), the Paris Air Show wasn?t the same spectacle it usually is. With it being the 100th anniversary of the show, it seems that the disaster of Air France Flight 447 is still weighing heavily on airlines.
At the opening day of the Air Show, Boeing didn?t obtain one lone purchase and its main competition Airbus was only capable to obtain just one sell from Qatar Airways for 27 airplanes.
The buy from Airbus for the 24 A320 solo passageway airplanes is worth $1.9 billion, well that?s the list fee anyway. Regularly airlines, specially given the global economic state, are able to haggle down the cost to a much more practical level.
The big champion of the day was being Canada?s Bombardier airliner. The Canadian aircraft maker announced that it had 35 offers for its CRJ100 airplanes accessible by Air Nostrum, the agreement is worth $1.75 billion. Bombardier are usually smaller planes and don?t travel the immense distances that Airbus and Boeing airplanes do.
Boeing has been having a difficult time selling their goods considering the deficiency of industrial flying and even waning military sales. If you look at commercial trip within the United States, the bulk of flights are on smaller district airplanes like the Bombardiers at the present. When I booked a trip from Memphis to Washington D.C., I was only able to fly on smaller regional airplanes versus just a couple years ago when the same flight could have been booked on a Boeing 727 or Airbus.
Boeing did try to enliven the mood regarding its sales however:
?At this point it appears to us that the economic conditions have bottomed. If they have bottomed and a recovery comes next year, I think we have a shot at getting through,? said Scott Carson, president and CEO of Boeing?s commercial division.
Hopefully things will recover for the Chicago located company, or possibly it is time for them to start producing the smaller airplanes that appear to be selling better. - 23196
