    Delta saying “GOODBYE” to Boeing and turning to Airbus
    Delta Airlines used to be one of the major operators of Boeing aircraft from the early stage of the airline starting in 1970 when Delta received its first Boeing jetliner, the 747. However, as time goes by, Delta has been defined as an Airbus-heavy airline for several recent years and seems to start losing interest in Boeing. Do you know what it means? It means Delta is saying goodbye to Boeing and turning to Airbus. Here’s why:
    Delta saying “GOODBYE” to Boeing and turning to Airbus! Here's Why. First of all, Why is Delta saying goodbye to Boeing? The reasons on Boeing’s side are quite understandable since their aircraft have been facing multiple structural issues recently that led to a considerable number of not only troubles but also fatalities. The 737 max series is probably the most notable case among multiple scandals that Boeing has caught up in since it caused 2 crashes and a total of 346 deaths within just 5 months.
    Delta saying “GOODBYE” to Boeing and turning to Airbus! Here's Why. On January 5 this year, another incident happened on the 737 max 9 in which a door panel flew off mid-flight and the reason was determined by a US safety board to be due to 4 missing key bolts. Not only the 737 Max series but also other Boeing models were caught up in troubles constantly due to structural issues

    Another big factor in Delta's decision was that Boeing didn't like Delta buying the A220, which they saw as a competitor to their smallest 737. Boeing cried to the US Dept. of Commerce, lobbying them to impose a 300% import tariff on each A220 sold in the US! They didn't want Delta to receive a superior aircraft at a lower price than Boeing's 60-year-old design. Airbus responded by building a factory in Alabama for the final assembly of some A220 and 320 models. Delta responded by not ordering more Boeings. And for the uninformed folks who think Boeing is a US company and Airbus is European, learn facts. Both are multinational companies with parts built in dozens of countries. They have to be because various nations won't buy the airliners unless workers in their countries are paid to produce some components.

      Ironic that the hottest Airbus is a plane but designed by Airbus. Obviously it’s the A220 from Bombardier. Either way the MAX 7 isn’t anywhere near certification (which is killing Southwest) so the A220 wins in availability as well

    The basic 737 design is decades old and the latest generation of engines didn't really fit it. Instead of designing a new plane to go with the new designs of engines, Boeing tried to adapt the old 737 to save costs whereas Airbus came up with totally new designs of planes. This is the fundamental issue of the current 737 designs - the entire plane needs a re-design but Boeing were chasing profits not good products, and look where it's gotten them

    • @spades9048
      @spades9048 Před 29 dny +1

      Airbus came up with totally new designs of planes? The A320 is a 40 year old program. The A330neo is based on the 50 year old A300. The A300B9 was the original designation of what would become the A330. Airbus has come up with two new clean sheet designs since 2000: The A350 and the A380. Boeing came out with one…the 787. Neither has produced a new clean sheet design of a narrowbody in decades. The A220 doesn’t count…that was already done by Bombardier - an excellent purchase decision but still not their design.

    These are NOT the reasons Delta has moved toward Airbus in the wide-body market and to a lesser extent the NEO in the narrow-body sector. Delta moved towards Airbus after the Northwest Merger, which was long before any of Boeing's issues posed up. Northwest was heavily Airbus, and Delta received heavy discounts for be a mainline US carrier to stick with them. all these issues you mention, yet say nothing about common Airbus problems like stuck control surfaces, major Pratt engine problems (not a cause of Airbus of course). They also plan on retiring the A319, and A320 for the 737 MAX and A321NEO. Delta has also decided, and stated that they want to be a launch customer for the Boeing NMA if and when it is ever launched.

      Boeing was dumping on Delta long before the current flood of Boeing problems. As a retired Delta pilot, I've heard several stories from Line Check Airmen who occasionally met with Richard Anderson on the topic. When one asked him about Delta trying to rejigger Northwest's 787 orders, Anderson became visibly angry and refused to say anything. ... Other things as well. I know Delta will still consider Being offerings, but Boeing has lost a lot of sales from Delta over their past stupid treatment of Delta.

    Although I'm no fan of the 787, this presentation has multiple errors on that, starting at about 1:24. The first fire incidents were in January of 2013; one was JAL, and the other was ANA. These incidents caused the grounding. The Ethiopian Airlines incident was 6 months later - in July of 2013. That fire had nothing to do with the ship's two primary lithium-ion batteries. It was caused by a faulty ELT battery. That was also lithium-ion, but that same ELT battery is also installed in many other types of airliners. It's not unique to the 787.

    • @KlausErmecke
      @KlausErmecke Před 10 dny

      The 757 had been dead in the market since about 2000. It was THEN (in 2004/05) that Boeing ended the production in Renton and scrapped the machinery (to create more space for the 737).
      DELTA is telling some things while it does others. The true mantra of the fleet strategy of DELTA over the last decade or so has been massive SIMPLIFICATION. They retired the last "old" DC-9s in 2014, the 747 in 2017, the "non-ER" 767-300 in 2019, and in the "extinction year" 2020 all 777s, all MD--80s and -90s, and the first sub-family of the 737 NG (i.e. the -700). Over the last few weeks, apparently the demise of the 757 has begun, with the inventory fallen from 111 to 109 units. At the same time, brand new A321neos arrive at a rate of between two and four a month. DELTA executives love to pay lip service to Boeing, and they praised the (purely fictional) "797".
      In the meantime they operate more and more 'busses out of Seattle.

It needs to be in that order to be successful, safety, quality then efficiencies.

    Even if both Airbus and Boeing were totally identical with manufacturing quality and technology. If either of them get sloppy with maintenance, it obviously creates a danger for anyone who is on it.
    So the question is, who is more likely to be meticulous with the maintenance of their aircraft, Boeing or Airbus? What about pilot and air crew training when any changes come around?
    The pilots of the 2 doomed 737 crashes were not even notified of the changes the engineers made when they took off, never mind training them for it. I’ll put my money on Airbus.

    Delta Airlines is an aviation industry "Bell Weather" of trends. Several decades ago, Delta flew only McDonnell-Douglas aircraft. They were McDonnell-Dougla's largest customer. Then, they dramatically turned away from McDonnell-Douglas, ending their close relationship, and turning to Boeing. Now, the "Bell Weather" is ringing again. Is this the "Death Nell" for Boeing?

  • @widget787

    Yes, Delta is shifting more towards Airbus, but they are far from becoming an all Airbus Airline and the likelihood of it happening is small.
    They have the 100 737-10 on order, but also they have more than 160 737-900ER that won't go anywhere anytime soon. Plus the 21 767-400ER that will be part of the fleet until at least into the 2030s.
    On top of the MAXes I can absolutely see Delta ordering the 787-10. Their widebody orders so far do not cover the whole fleet that needs replacement, and the 787-10 is a perfect fit. Also Delta repeatedly states that they are very interested in a Boeing 797/MOM. If Boeing launches this one maybe later this decade I can see Delta jumping on it.

    • @vitoaditya8337
      @vitoaditya8337 Před měsícem

      I don't think they would be interested in the 787 anymore. The A330neo is one factor, and I don't see them placing orders after cancelling a previous 787-8 order in 2016. So as far as widebodies are concerned, they are more definitely comfortable with the A330neo and A350. Might hope they order A330-800neo after their A350-1000 order, though more -900neos could also be possible.

      @@vitoaditya8337 787-8 is one thing, 787-10 another, also 2016 is one thing, 2024 another story. Airlines are upgauging capacity of airplanes all over the place, the A330-300s will be due for replacement starting from the late 2020s/early 2030s. They could sure order more A330-900s, but first the A330-900 means zero increase in capacity and second a huge airline like Delta needs to diversify and cannot rely only on one manufacturer.
      The 787-10 is a CASM beast on routes up to around 10 hours, which is most of the routes across the North Atlantic. So the 787-10 is the perfect plane for all those higher demand transatlantic routes, for example those into the Sky team Hubs AMS, CDG etc. Also it hauls a significant amount of cargo. I am very certain Delta will go for the 787-10 midterm.

      @@jhca4671 the 787-10 does not have a range issue. It was built to be a people mover on routes up to 10/11 hours, and it does this extremely well. With slight payload restriction it can even fly shorter transpacific routes, with the latest MTOW bump even without restriction. Delta does not need a 787-10 which is able to do 14 hour missions, for those missions it has A350-900s. However on these shorter Transatlantic routes the 787-10 is more efficient than the A359, and this is where is makes sense to operate both, which many airlines do.

    At the end of the day, at this time, Airbus is the better company. Better run with a superior product designed to serve both airlines and the people who travel on airliners. Boeing's arrogance in the way they, along with the Trump Government, sought to destroy Bombardier was telling. Boeing cares not how they achieve their maximum profits. If silly Boeing had bought the C Series, now A220, they would at least have a superior aircraft and the highly experienced Montreal workforce. My gut tells me this workforce could have been utilized to instruct less experienced Boeing workers. That said it is likely the Boeing workforce suffer mostly from CEO and Boardroom cost cutting. Demoralizing a workforce will and has led to horrible consequences for travelers and Boeing.

    The primary reason for Delta‘s MAX 10 order is its existing hundreds of pilots and MRO network established for 737. The make in USA label also helps. Delta is large enough to maintain duopoly suppliers for its feet. Of course, if the A320 supply isn’t so tight, Delta probably will order more Airbus planes. Delta has been very shrewd in managing its fleet operation and renewal, much better than United and American. Both airlines are banking on B787 for its wide body fleets. B787 is a fine plane but with smaller capacity and is not well suited for slot restricted high volume routes. A350 offers a superior customer experience than B787, not to mention the manufacturing and quality issues associated with B787.

    *1970* is hardly the _early stages_ of an airline that was founded during the pre-Depression era. Delta was historically a big *Douglas Aircraft* (later McDonald Douglas) operator. The airline rostered the world's largest fleet of *Lockheed* aircraft, and acquired its first *Airbus* aircraft from the defunct Pam Am early during the 1990s. Delta has historically operated fewer Boeings as a percentage of their total fleet, than either American or United.

People these days are too lazy to be bothered with such things. The news media no longer does it either. It used to be called investigative journalism. 🥺 Many airlines have official websites where you can get an accurate historical account of the company. When I interviewed with Delta for a position, one of the questions was, "what do you know about the company"? and the interviewer was shocked that I knew information, that most people don't know unless they do their homework. Posting inaccurate information makes them look stupid and it's an insult to those who know the truth. 😒
