The European plane-maker Airbus has kicked off the 2019 International Paris Airshow with the launch of a long-range, single-aisle airliner.
The European plane-maker Airbus has kicked off the 2019 International Paris Airshow with the launch of a long-range, single-aisle airliner and an announcement that they have agreed to sell 100 planes to the U.S. plane lessor Air Lease Corporation.
Air Lease Corporation, founded from scratch in 2010, now has 387 Airbus aircraft and is the European plane maker's third largest leasing customer. At a press conference Monday, Airbus claimed the plane now boasted the longest single-aisle plane range in the world at 4,700 nautical miles. The plane can take 244 passengers but on a long-range trip, the number of seats would reduce to about 200.
The chief commercial officer for Airbus, Christian Scherer, said the new plane would come with a newly designed fuel tank that could carry nearly as much fuel as a bigger twin-aisle plane.
