What will commercial planes look like in near future like 2 years from now?
Will hybrid airliner be mainstream widespread in our lifetime will hybrid airplanes mean the end of boeing 737 and Airbus a320 production will airlines stop buying fuel efficient planes like boeing 737 max airbus a320neo
When you have a design that works you do not stray from it. They may have a few refinements but will basically look the same.
In 2 years the commercial aircraft will look exactly like they look now. It takes a year to "cut in" even a minor change to the existing design into the production flow. With hybrid propulsion you are talking an entirely new design, using a yet unproven technology, that will require many more years of maturation and then many years of detailed design and testing.
The hybrid propulsion is an interesting concept but it is far from ready for commercial application. While both Boeing and Airbus are studying concepts for future airliners using hybrid propulsion, the challenge is to to come up with an distributed electric system that produces enough electric power to run all of the aircraft electric and propulsion systems, yet is lighter than the twin jet engines currently in use. Right now the studies' aim is to determine which technologies have to be matured further to make hybrid propulsion commercially viable. It will be at least 7 to 10 years before the these technologies are mature enough to be put to use.
After that, it takes 1 to 3 years of manufacturer's consultations with airlines to define the size and the range of the potential hybrid aircraft, followed by 4 to 6 years of design effort and 2 years of flight tests before the first aircraft is delivered to a launch customer. Don't look for the hybrid airliners until the second half of the 2030 decade.
It will look very much like the aircraft of today. Developing a new airliner takes far longer than 2 years
Stupid aviation TROLL strikes again. Don't feed the TROLL!
- What are some good areas that are suburban like near the Newark airport in New Jersey? My boyfriend recently got a job with Port Authority, but he lives 70 miles currently from the airport, now he's looking at apartments near the place, but not directly in Newark. He basically wants something that's less that's less than a 40 mile drive, a good area. My boyfriend and me are not from Jersey, so we have no idea what's a good area.
- Which airline companies pay their future flight attendants during their training, and which airline companies are unionized? I also wanted to know which airline companies pay their future flight attendants during their training time, as well as which ones pay for their housing whether it be at a hotel somewhere or not. And which airline companies pay their flight attendants the best and treat their employees the best?
- Since planes fly themselves now? Would you go into an airline if you had the chance and miss out on GA experience and proper hands on flying or would you do GA first and then eventually try for an airline?
- Will Boeing 737 and Airbus A320 or Bombardier C series halt Airplane production in near future? Due to Pilot shortage and electric airplanes Will regional airlines go out of business Are small airlines doomed due to pilot shortage so what are they doing to solve
