Who do you think is going to win the aviation war this year between. To me, it looks like Airbus! And also according to some sources, Boeing is very upset about the Tariffs placed by President Trump on aluminium and steel and I feel this could really impact the final winner.
I think Airbus has a better position right now. Their investment in the Bombardier C-Series is a good example. They expand and use innovative technology.
Boeing has a political problem as well. President Trumps tariffs aren‘t helpful at all. Airbus has a assembly line in Europe and in the US. That’ll help them as well.
I don’t really get why Airbus isn’t developing and building a 757 Alternative though. The A321LR is a good plane. But it’s not really the product airlines are looking for. The Boeing 797 will fill that gap.
