Pour une fabrique d'ailes en CFRP, pour 2,5 Avions (5 Ailes) type A320 NEO par jour ouvrable ...
C'est juste une question, mais même réparti chez des sous-traitants, ça doit être monstrueux !!!
A321neo could carry 25 more passengers on a 2,500nm route departing Phoenix or Las Vegas, two hot airports that were challenging for the A321ceo (based on the CFM56 engine).
We are “well below” weight targets.
Meeting 95% commonality target.
There has been an increase of airlines configuring the A321 with more than 200 seats from 5% to 40%, which drove the larger-capacity design of the A321neo.
Flap extension will go up from 27 degrees to 34 degrees, and some changes to spoilers will be incorporated into the neo.
Poncho svp : pourriez-vous afficher la source link vers les deux images sans rognure ni à l'avant, ni à l'arrière ? Merci bcp d'avanceAdmin a écrit:... l'A320 à 189 PAX sans surprise ... + deux images.jpeg
Airbus has achieved test instrumentation power-on for its first A320neo, and is conducting load calibration of the aircraft while its Pratt & Whitney PW1100G engines undergo podding.
The aircraft is being prepared for ground-vibration tests and will go to the paint facility “in the next few weeks”, says A320neo programme chief Klaus Roewe.
He says the twin-engined aircraft is to be handed to Airbus’s design organisation at the end of August, and first flight is scheduled for September.
There are no concerns about the geared-fan powerplant, following a failure involving the PW1500G engine during Bombardier CSeries testing last month.
Roewe says the A320neo’s engine is “different” and that its test-bed is not facing “any compromise or limitation”.
“We don’t see a risk to first flight,” he adds.
A320neo project flight-test engineer Sandra Bour-Schaeffer says that Airbus wants to achieve the same take-off and landing performance as the A320 despite the re-engined version’s being 1.6t heavier.
She says the sharklet wing-tip campaign has “paved the way” towards A320neo certification, adding that it has generated some 250h of up-front flight testing.
But she adds that, while the upgrade from the A320 is technically relatively straightforward, the certification regime has changed substantially since the A320 was approved.
Bour-Schaeffer says that, while the A350 has a test fleet of five aircraft, the airframer “can’t afford” to produce the same for the A320neo family range.
Four A320neo test aircraft will be built – two for each engine option – and Bour-Schaeffer says: “We’ve chosen to certify all engine tests on the A320.”
One aircraft in each pair will have heavy instrumentation and conduct handling and hot-and-high performance tests. The second will be lighter – used for testing autopilot, noise, and extended operations – and be “more representative” to customers with “no intrusive instruments”, Bour-Schaeffer adds.
Pratt &Whitney’s new thrust bump for the A321neo will allow Latin American airlines, many of which serve or have main bases at these challenging airports, to achieve maximum payloads, serve new destinations and maximize fleet productivity by introducing a new member of the A320neo Family. In hot and high conditions, aircraft performance is very sensitive to many parameters, but there are cases where the A321neo range gain is as much as 700nm. This would mean, for example, covering the whole North American market from Mexico City or serving the US East Coast from Bogota while offering over 20 percent more seats per flight.
