- Why does free trade matter to Airbus? There is not a single aircraft in the sky that has been manufactured in one country alone. No country has a monopoly on the skills or talent required to make the A350 or the Boeing 787. Policies that inhibit trade and the capacity of Airbus (and Boeing) of getting the expertise they need, wherever in the world, will only serve to make aircraft more expensive and less technologically advanced, creating additional costs for the customers and consumers and inhibiting growth and development in the aviation industry. Airbus has long chosen to broaden its sourcing strategy to take advantage of the most competitive products in the market. When an airline chooses an Airbus aircraft powered with a U.S. engine it actually buys a product with around 40% U.S.-manufactured content. And during production, many components will have been exported and imported across national and jurisdictional lines multiple times.
