Tursku proteralo iz F-35 programa, zbog nabavke PVO sistema S-400 od Rusije. S obrazloženjem da u istoj zemlji ne mogu egzistirati taj avion i raketni sistem pravljen da uništava baš te avione.

Budući da Turska ima svoj program razvoja aviona pete generacije (TX), biće da će se ubuduće malo više oslanjati na Ruse u tom delu.

I think this is a begining of beautiful friendship.

Sta mogu da dobiju time? Njihova avioindustrija nema nikakvo znanje, rusi da im prodaju svoje tehnologije skroz na skroz nece. Dakle jedino mogu da kupuju ruske avione dok narednih 50 godina trose pare na svoj san o novom avionu :D 

 

Meni pre deluje da ce ovo da se ispegla nekako i da ce turci da uzmu neki drugi USA avion, eventualno europski. Celo ovo priblizavanje Rusiji je pocelo od onog puca, ne? Jel ti Sultan implicira da su ameri podrzavali njegovo skidanje?

Rusi nude na prodaju i Su-57, jedini od tri zemlje koje imaju lovac 5. generacije za vazdušnu premoć koji ga uopšte nude. Ameri ne prodaju F-22 kao ni Kinezi njihov J-20.

Su-57 je razvijan kao joint venture Rusije i Indije, pri čemu je indijska varijanta FGFA trebala da se proizvodi lokalno, u HAL.

Ako su spremni da plate, oni bi im rado prodali tehnologiju, cenim.

Sutra Qantas šalje Dreamliner ER na prvu rotaciju JFK-SYD. Najduži komercijalni let bez prekida.

 

Koliko ja videh, nece biti komercijalni let - samo 50 ljudi (ukljucujuci posadu) i 'obicni' 787-9.

 

Quote

Scientists and medical researchers in the cabin will turn Qantas’s brand-new Boeing Co. Dreamliner into a high-altitude laboratory. They’ll screen the brains of the pilots for alertness, while monitoring the food, sleep and activity of the few dozen passengers…The aim is to see how humans hold up to the ordeal.

Without Safety Approval, Boeing Freezes Production of 737 MAX Jet

 

Aerospace company Boeing’s announcement that it is suspending production of the 737 MAX passenger jet is affecting more than just the business’s financial results.

Thousands of employees and hundreds of suppliers are also facing an unclear future with the production freeze – Boeing’s biggest in 20 years.

Boeing builds the 737 MAX in Seattle, Washington. About 12,000 employees are involved in making the airplane. The company said it would not lay off employees during the production freeze. However, the move will affect a supply chain of up to 900 companies in the U.S. and overseas that make parts for the complex jet.

Boeing’s board of directors made the decision Monday after a two-day meeting. Last week, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) did not approve the 737’s return to service before 2020.

The 737 MAX passenger airplane has been banned from flying since March, shortly after a second deadly crash involving the aircraft took place near Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Five months earlier, one of the jets crashed after taking off from Jakarta, Indonesia. A total of 346 people died in the two incidents.

The crashes caused an international outcry against Boeing and many questioned the companies’ support for safety policies. Pilots reportedly had expressed concerns about one of the flight control systems on the plane. It caused the aircraft lose altitude under some conditions.

Boeing has made changes to the airplane’s software and proposed upgrading pilot training. But the changes are still being studied by flight safety officials.

The Federal Aviation Administration would not comment on what it described as Boeing’s business decision. It said it would continue to work with safety officials around the world to study the proposed changes to the 737 MAX.

“Our first priority is safety, and we have set no timeframe for when the work will be completed,” the agency said.

The production freeze signals a deepening of the crisis for Boeing. U.S. Representative Rick Larsen called the decision “a body blow to its workers and the region’s economy.” The lawmaker, however, praised Boeing’s promise not to lay off workers.

Before Monday, Boeing had not stopped production of the 737 MAX during the months-long grounding. The company said that it had about 400 airplanes in storage waiting to be sent to buyers.

It is estimated that the grounding has cost Boeing about $9 billion so far and about $1 billion each additional month.

Boeing’s production halt also affects suppliers like Spirit AeroSystems Holdings Inc, based in Wichita, Kansas. Fifty-percent of the company’s sales are based on the 737 MAX. Other companies that supply parts to Boeing are Britain’s Senior Plc and France’s Safran SA. The French company partners with General Electric to make the planes’ engines.

Many suppliers have seen their stock prices suffer as a result of the production halt. They may have to pull back their own production targets because of reduced demand.

In addition to suppliers, some airlines continue to cancel flights because the 737 MAX cannot fly. Southwest Airlines has extended cancellations for another five weeks through April 13 because it is unclear when the plane will return to service.

Richard Aboulafia, an aircraft industry expert with the Teal Group, spoke to the Associated Press. He said the freeze would probably affect the economy and could worsen what experts sometimes call the country’s trade deficit.

“This is the country’s biggest single manufactured export product,” Aboulafia noted.
