Boeing 737max7 tried the test flight from Shanghai Pudong Airport at 9:44 am on August 11, and the Zhoushan Putuoshan Airport was separated from 9:41. This flight is also a 737max series of models for the first time after 30 months after the first time.
The test flight will be completed by the test franchispers in the Shanghai Aviation Air Air Approval Center. Reuters said that after the test flight is completed, the China Civil Aviation Authority is expected to release a aircraft assessment report and publish related comments before the start of the pilot training.
Future preparation?
Since the two crash accidents brought the safety of operations, the China Civil Aviation Authority announced the flight of all models of the 737max series in March 2019, which later has been banned worldwide and triggered Boeing History. The biggest crisis.
According to reports, the main purpose of this flight is to conduct flight test activities in China, and to China's avionics supervision department and the airline customer demonstrate a series of targeted remedies and technological improvements made after the accident after the accident. Advance the recognition of the regulatory authorities, accelerate the pace of "ban order" in China.
After two years and a half, China is already one of the countries that have not yet ratified the 737max series of models. Boeing began to launch the model after technology improvement in June last year, November The US Federal Aviation Authority announced the release of the ban. In December of the year, in order to restore public trust, 737max's start-up user US airline arranged a demo flight for the media. After a week, Brazil Air became the world's first airline that recovered 737max series models.
At the beginning of 2021, the European Aviation Safety Authority also approved the re-flight of the 737max series, followed by a number of countries and regions to restore the business operations of the model. However, in China, from last year's Civil Aviation Authority, the caliber always said that there is no specific flying schedule to publish, and repeatedly emphasized the prerequisites for Feta, it is necessary to meet three principles: aircraft design Changes must obtain airworthiness approval; the driver must be fully effective; the investigation of two accidents must be clear, and the improvement measures are effective.
China's industry regulatory authorities have also stated that it has always maintained communication and technical cooperation in terms of Fei Fei and the US Federal Aviation Authority, the European Aviation Safety Administration, and Boeing. According to some airlines and suppliers, in order to strive to "lift" as soon as possible, Boeing has organized a lot of communication activities including airline customers, pilots, and industry regulators, through the preaching of the product, the simulator demo and many other ways and related parties Keep communication, hoping to let all parties understand the technical improvement and system transformation of models previously problems.
The dispatched a verification machine to China's further flight testing and technical display, and also explain the work of promoting resurrection under the pre-paving of the previous pavement to a more substantive stage. According to relevant informed people, even if the technical reached a standard, the 737max series of models that can be re-input from China's airlines will still take several months, including the technical transformation of the delivered aircraft, Pilot training and related techniques are prepared, but also let long-standing aircraft returned to all preparations.
According to the Boeing CEO, Carrhn's statement on the conference call: will continue to cooperate with the global industry regulatory agencies on 737max, which is expected to complete the approval issues including China this year.
When China's declaration is temporarily suspended, China's airline has received more than 90 737max series, followed by the order quantity at the time of the model, a total of approximately a quarter of orders from China Airlines . For such an important market, Boeing even changing the procedure that did not have an overseas production facility related to production facilities, Zhejiang Zhoushan Investment has built a 737 series completion and delivery center, which has been delivered at the end of 2018 737max8 aircraft . However, due to the shortcomings of the shortcomings, the facilities have not been in the operation of production in more than two years.
After the flight, the 737max model of nearly 100 Chinese airlines was distributed in many airports in China. Among them, the most affected is the airline of China Southern Airlines Co., Ltd., which has received more than 20 737max series, as well as airlines like Xiamen Aviation Co., Ltd.. Although the new crown epidemic in the early 2020 has caused a huge blow to the air transport market, China's domestic air market recovers faster due to the fact that the epidemic control is more effective, and the short-haul market in the domestic airborne rebound is 737max series of narrow bodies. The main market of the machine.
China market is key factor
After flying in March 2019, Boeing stopped the new aircraft to customers and transfer capacity to 42 in 52 months. With more and more new aircraft that cannot be delivered, even once makes Boeing in Several main production bases in Washington, they are filled with new aircraft to be delivered. The bigger problem is that the continuous cash flow cannot be delivered through the aircraft, making Boeing and suppliers facing huge financial pressure, so Boeing will temporarily stop continuing to build a new 737max plane in early 20020.
After stopping, the Boeing has improved and transformed the problem of deadly security hazards in the 737max series, including the re-design computer architecture that supports the mobile characteristic enhancement system (MCAS), while the development, design, and constructing a series of issues. Re-investigation, many executives, including the CEO and the President of the CEO left the company, and pay the victims of the crash event, the airline customers, and huge judicial reconciliation, and finally re-investment A series of "reconstruction" work.
But it is not necessary to damage the brand reputation and the competitiveness faced by the model. The 737max series order volume reached the peak in 2018, the order has a maximum of more than 5,200 orders, and the delivery amount is more than 300. In 2019, although the delivery has reached nearly 400, the order volume has been reduced to less than 5,100, and it is less than 4,600 in 2020. A large part of this reason is that the rental company and the airline's order cancellation. This model that has received nearly 1,000 orders in 2020 has encountered more than 600 orders in the disclosed data, while Boeing even in the statistics, thousands of orders from the reserve order. Remove.
Although there are "hardening" customers including the United States, "Iron" customers began to renew the Boeing this year, it is expected to be supported, but the gap between the competitive model is increased. Data show that as of June 2021, the 737max series delivered more than 500, and the reserve orders were less than 4,100. Airbus A320NEO series has delivered more than 1,700 orders, and more than 5,600 reserve orders. In the dry line narrow-body machine market, Boeing has lost its long-standing "leader" status, and the market share in the Chinese market has also been exceeded by Airbus.
In February this year, Boeing received 82 new aircraft orders, thereby achieving a record of the first single month's number of orders in the number of orders in the order of the canceled order since November 2019. In the second quarter of this year, Boeing announced a profit of $ 755 million, got rid of a loss of the seven quarters, which also explained to a certain extent, the manufacturer of this century-old history finally Start showing active signs.
For aircraft manufacturers, delivery means cash flow, and production capacity is the guarantee of delivery. Single-channel aircraft has always been the key to guaranteeing cash flow health of aircraft manufacturers, especially if the long-distance route cannot be recovered in the short term under the influence of the epidemic, leading to a great impact on the market demand of the remote wide-body aircraft. Next, the narrow body machine becomes the key to reopening the aircraft manufacturer. But for Boeing, at least you need to solve a problem first: 737max returns to normal operating conditions on a global scale.
After the production of the Boeing recovers narrow body machine, the current month can be about 16, and plan to increase the 31 months of the month 2022, but this is the ability to produce the Boeing itself and normal. The production capacity is still larger. According to Boeing, the information converated by many occasions in many occasions indicates that the recovery of narrow-body machine production capacity is directly related to China, because only Chinese airlines resume delivery, allowing 737max series to be further released in production and delivery, while Also included, it is possible to win new orders from the Chinese market, which is also the key to Boeing has been actively promoting 737max in China.
According to current statistics, nearly 400 737max series of new aircraft that have been completed have not been delivered to customers. According to the civil aviation resource network, there are currently 13 airlines in China to fly 97 737max: 24 Southern Airlines, 16 Air China, 11 Haihang, 11 Airlines, 10 Xiamen Airlines, 5 Shanhang 5, China Airlines 3, Xiang Peng, 3 Okai, 2 Fuzhou Airlines, 2 Kunming Airlines, 1 Nine. In addition, according to simpleflying report, China's airlineless 737max is still 737max: 2 of Kunming Airlines, 9 Shanhang, 10 Shenzhen Airlines, 3 Navigation, 43 Southern Airlines, Chaffang 17 , Fuzhou Airlines, 1 Xiang Peng, 3, 18 East China Sea, 6 Okai.
FAA Publish Security Directive on 737NG and 737max
According to Reuters, the US Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) has released a new security directive for Boeing 737MAX and 737NG, requiring potential issues that exist due to decreased fire extinguishing capacity.
FAA said that the electronic flow control function of the air-conditioning assembly on the aircraft may fail, and these air-conditioning components are discharged into the cargo cabin from other parts of the aircraft. Therefore, the FAA releases instructions, prohibiting carriers from transporting goods in the cargo cabin. If operators are insistent to operate the aircraft under this directive, they need to verify that the cargo tanks are not flammable.
FAA said the instruction applies to all Boeing 737-8, 737-9 and 737-8200 Max aircraft, and 737-800 and 737-900ER series aircraft. Airworthiness Directives affect 663 aircraft registered in the United States and approximately 2,204 aircraft registered around the world.
The test flight will be completed by the test franchispers in the Shanghai Aviation Air Air Approval Center. Reuters said that after the test flight is completed, the China Civil Aviation Authority is expected to release a aircraft assessment report and publish related comments before the start of the pilot training.
