Summary/Abstract |
Collaborative defence projects have been a distinctive feature of European defence industrial policy. This article focuses on whether the number of partner nations in international collaborative defence and aerospace programmes is a source of inefficiency. It appears that there is not a simple linear relationship. Two nation collaborations can be efficient, but conventional wisdom assumes that inefficiencies emerge with more than two partner nations. Inevitably, data problems made what appears to be a simple hypothesis difficult to test. The major result is that there is no evidence that efficiency as measured by development times is adversely affected by the number of partner nations. A limited sample regression and a comparison of Airbus vs. Boeing shows a similar conclusion.

Summary/Abstract |
Unlike the four earlier editions of international trade media briefings (TMB) this time around the head of airbus defence and space (military aircraft), Doningo - Urea Raso appeared a bit subdued initially. But it was just play of light in the fading hours of the day at La-Hacienda, a 17th century Andalusian fort of the outskirt of Seville.

Summary/Abstract |
Pratt & Whitney delivered its first ship set of PurePower PW1100G-JM engines on schedule to Airbus last month for its A320neo aircraft family. According to David Brantner, president, Pratt & Whitney Commercial Engines, "Pratt & Whitney has completed more than 75 per cent of certification testing and we are on track to meet or exceed all commitments." The PurePower engine family has now completed more than 9,000 hours of rigorous testing and is on track and ready to power the first A320neo aircraft in late summer, he added.
Compared with an A320ceo without Sharklets, the A320neo powered by PW1100G-JM engines will provide customers with up to a 15 per cent reduction in fuel-burn and a corresponding reduction in CO2 emissions. The PW1100G-JM engine also provides up to a 75 per cent reduction in the A320neo noise footprint, which is environmentally friendly, allowing longer hours of operation at airports that operate under curfew.
The PW1100G-JM engine is currently in the middle of rigorous testing, with certification planned for the second half of this year. Airline operation or entry into service is planned for the fourth quarter of 2015. As of today, the PurePower engine family has received more than 5,500 orders and commitments, including options from more than 50 global customers.

Summary/Abstract |
The global aircraft manufacturer Airbus has released the latest installment of the future by airbus, its vision for sustainable aviation in 2050 and beyond. for the first time the vision looks beyond aircraft design to how the aircraft is operated both on the ground and in the air in order to meet the expected growth in air travel in a sustainable way.

Summary/Abstract |
In what is gradually turning into a tradition, six French defence companies, Airbus Group, MBDA, Nexter, Renault Trucks Defense, Safran and Thales (though the first two take pride in being European in composition), in collaboration with the French ministry of defence, invited a group of international journalists on a pre-Eurosatory press tour. The purpose was a single idea across groups: to share news and operational experiences in the lead up to the Show.
Learning from the last such tour, two years back, which was spear-headed by the ministry of defence (MoD) and DGA (Direction générale de l'armement), with the industry playing only a supporting role (which led to unfavourable results for the industry), this time the government stepped back letting the industry run the show the way it pleased. The result was, a short, swift tour focussed on the latest developments pertaining to the chosen products, with minimal background briefings and theoretical lectures.This was made clear by one of the organisers at the first day's reception at Versailles, which is home to Nexter. "We will always have a lot to say," said Laetitia Blandin of Nexter, welcoming the journalists to the company facilities. "But as journalists you will only pick up what makes news for you. So, we decided to focus only on news and cut the rest.

Summary/Abstract |
Airbus and Boeing are excited at the prospect of substantial orders across single and twin aisle airplanes from Indian airlines over the next two decades. India’s airlines, however, are struggling to stay afloat in a harsh regulatory environment, and years of accumulated debt coupled with high fuel prices could impact the market for new airplanes.

Summary/Abstract |
Aero engines continue to push the boundaries of technology in the quest to cater for increased performance and substantially improved fuel efficiency, In February this year Rolls-Royce (RR) provided details of two advanced aero engines which could be ready in just a decade. According to Colin Smith, Rolls-Royce director - engineering and technology "These new designs are the result of implementing our ongoing technology programmes. They are designed to deliver what our airframe and airline customers tell us they need: even better fuel efficiency, reliability and environmental performance."
