AIRBUS —
Preparation of the new Final Assembly Line in Mobile, Alabama,
USA advanced on schedule. The Mobile site is due to begin
operations in 2015 with deliveries to start in 2016. Discussions
advanced on an extension of the successful Final Assembly
Line partnership in China.
INCREMENTAL INNOVATION
Airbus continued its strategy of incremental innovation,
upgrading existing series aircraft in order to maximise customer
benet while minimising development risk. In 2013, Airbus
delivered 250 A320s equipped with the new sharklet wing
features, which have demonstrated fuel-burn savings of at least
4%. Development of the A320neo remains on track for entry-into-
service at the end of 2015.
The new 242 tonne variant of the A330, which offers 500 nautical
miles more range and up to 2% less fuel burn than the current
aircraft, is planned for rst delivery in mid-2015. An additional
regional A330 variant, optimised for high density domestic
routes, is scheduled for entry-into-service in early 2015.
