Airbus vs. Boeing Stuart Taylor Chris Tillmanns November 13, 2002 The airline manufacturing industry consists of only two firms, Airbus in Toulouse, France and the Chicago-based Boeing. Two recent research and development moves at the two firms offer an insight into the positioning strategy that each is taking in the future market place. It seems the two firms are accenting two niche markets with a pair of flagship products, neither of which are in direct competition with each other. This will

In assessing the current situation for the Boeing 747-8, there are many things that we need to look at. There is a passenger version and a freight version of the aircraft and this analysis will mainly focus on the passenger plane. We will first look at the current performance, which is going to show us some concerns we can address at a later time. Next we will look at the overall market demand and the specific decreased demand for this product. No analysis would be complete without looking at the

Aircraft carriers are essentially the backbone of the United States Navy as they are a hybrid warship with the unique ability to provide the greatest projection of power through the aircraft launched off of their 4.5 acre flight decks. Beyond their vital aircraft launching capabilities, they support the largest number of crew members over any other class of ship making them a powerhouse for almost any mission type designated to them. With the aircraft carrier holding the title of being the flagship

The big concern to Lockheed Martin is, when the purchase orders begin to decline, which will affect the operators confidence in F-35 JSF. Then the Pentagon will modernize its fleet of fighter aircrafts in the service, in order to avoid increasing the burden on the budget by higher prices, and purchasing desire to F-35 JSF would be negligible. This repeats the F-22 scenario with the complex and expensive F-35 JSF. But investors in Lockheed Martin believe that this matter will not get to the F-35 JSF

decided to enter the Very Large Aircraft (VLA) market by introducing and developing the A3XX as they wanted to compete with the market’s dominator, Boeing and its infamous 747. In the beginning both firms independently explored the practicability of launching a superjumbo and then decided to collaborate on the project.

Boeing Vs Airbus In today's marketplace, distinct differences in the way competitive products work have become increasingly rare. But functional product differentiation is exactly what the rivalry between the Airbus A380 and the Boeing 787 Dreamliner is all about: Two companies with fundamentally different products, based on diametrically opposite visions of the future, engaged in a Hatfields versus McCoys battle with billions of dollars at stake. Each company has made a series of big bets.

This position paper will address if the F-35 JSF program is worth the current investment the United States has placed into it. First the pros of the program will be presented followed by the cons. Finally, the paper will discuss why the JSF program is not worth the investment. 2. Fighter aircraft are classified into generations (gen). Currently the United States has the only combat ready fifth gen fighter, the F-22. The introduction of the F-35 will increase United States air dominance by providing
