The views expressed in this publication are the sole responsibility of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of the European Commission. Contact: Dietrich Knoerzer – Stanley Tang European Commission Directorate-General for Research & Innovation Directorate H – Transport RTD-H.3 – Aeronautics B-1049 Brussels [email protected] [email protected] 0 Towards a European Strategic Aviation RDT&E Infrastructure Preface Tasked by the European Commission and ACARE Member States Group in September 2012, a group of independent experts (IEG) has produced the following report on a European Strategic Aviation Research, Development, Test and Evaluation Infrastructure (RDT&E) and has submitted it in February 2013. The mandate provided very limited time for the group to deliberate and did not allow the complete perimeter to be addressed in the necessary depth. The IEG therefore decided to make sure it covered areas where short-term advice actions were potentially needed and where its own expertise could contribute. Nevertheless the IEG was also able to review the entire spectrum of aviation RDT&E infrastructure (identifying several additional areas as potential "strategic RDT&E capabilities", ranging from aero-engine testing and ATM, E-infrastructures and large scale demonstrators to production technology capabilities) and to recommend further work on these and other topics that it considered necessary to provide a complete and in depth review in the longer term.

  • Airbus/EADS Sign a Titanium Supply Agreement With
    GDM 17/2009R 20th April 2009 Airbus/EADS sign a Titanium supply agreement with VSMPO-AVISMA, integrated structure of the Russian Technologies State Corporation Airbus/EADS and VSMPO-AVISMA boost their long-term relationship Airbus, the world’s leading aircraft manufacturer, its parent company EADS, a global leader in aerospace, defence and related services and the Russian Technologies State Corporation’s integrated structure VSMPO-AVISMA Corporation, the Russian Titanium manufacturer, have signed the biggest and longest-term contract in the history of Airbus/EADS cooperation with Russian industry. The agreement was signed today in Moscow by Sergey Chemezov, General Director of the Russian Technologies State Corporation and Tom Enders, President and CEO of Airbus in the presence of Vladimir Putin, Russian Prime-Minister, Walter Jürgen Schmid, German Ambassador to Russia, Jean de Gliniasty, French Ambassador to Russia and Juan Antonio March Pujol, Spanish Ambassador to Russia. The agreement covers the supply of Titanium to Airbus and other EADS Divisions until 2020. The scope of the contract includes the supply of Titanium and covers die forging parts for all existing Airbus aircraft, including new programmes such as the A350XWB. VSMPO-AVISMA Corporation may also machine Titanium products in order to develop a vertically integrated Titanium supply chain, starting from raw materials to finished products. The contract comes as a confirmation of the framework agreement signed in July 2008 at Farnborough Airshow. The new agreement further boosts the relationship between the companies, which dates back to the early 1990s. It also enlarges Airbus’ cooperation with the Russian aviation industry, which currently includes production of components for Airbus at Russian plants, passenger to freighter aircraft conversions (P2F) and joint Research & Technology (R&T) projects.

Boeing’s status as a first mover in the aerospace industry has made it a world-leading company; however, the external environment and various pressures have allowed Airbus to emerge as a strong competitor. By conducting a descriptive case analysis, this paper identifies the competitive issues between these two giants, analyzing continuous action and reaction processes throughout the whole history of the airline industry. Finally, by examining Boeing’s main strengths, business diversification options, and risk-taking culture, this paper suggests ways Boeing can retake its place as the industry leader. Keywords: competitive dynamics; action and reaction; first mover advantage; open innovation; aerospace industry; Boeing; Airbus Citation: Woo, A.; Park, B.; Sung, H.; Yong, H.; Chae, J.; Choi, S.

Nikolaishvili Impact of the A380 Project on the Financial Performance of EADS Revision Date 5.0 19-08-2007 Abstract Airbus has been making headlines in the past few months for all the wrong reasons. This iconic European corporation has undergone a turbulent period due to the problems surrounding the Airbus A380 project. A new flagship product that should have curved out an unassailable advantage for Airbus over Boeing went completely wrong. The Airbus A380 aircraft was a ground breaking concept that was meant to push EADS into a unique market segment. Instead, it threatened the very existence of the company and served as a catalyst for major surgery and a complete reorganization of the corporation starting from the top management down to the production floors.

    Stability requires change: Path bending in the case of Airbus’ work-share allocation (A300-A350 XWB) Inaugural-Dissertation zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades einer Doktorin der Wirtschaftswissenschaft (Dr. rer. pol.) des Fachbereichs Wirtschaftswissenschaft der Freien Universität Berlin Lisa Maria Arnold M.A., Dipl. Pol. Berlin, im November 2013 Erstgutachter: Prof. Dr. Arndt Sorge Zweitgutachterin: Prof. Dr. Jana Costas Tag der Disputation: 01. November 2013 Wege entstehen dadurch, daß man sie geht. ─ Franz Kafka Danksagung Das vor mir ausgewählte Eingangszitat dieser Arbeit trifft im übertragenen Sinne nicht nur auf die Entstehung und Entwicklung des Unternehmens Airbus, sondern auch auf diese Doktorarbeit zu. Ich bin sehr dankbar dafür, dass ich diesen Weg – mit all seinen Abzweigungen und Umwegen – gehen durfte. Ich möchte hier die Gelegenheit wahrnehmen, um den Menschen, die mich begleitet und unterstützt haben, aufrichtig zu danken. Zuallererst gebührt mein besonderer Dank meinem Erstbetreuer, Prof. Dr. Arndt Sorge. Ich hatte das große Glück, dass er sich als gelernter Luftbildmesstechniker und passionierter Segelflieger – nach eigener Aussage – noch mehr für Airbus und seine Geschichte interessiert als ich. Diese persönliche Begeisterung äußerte sich nicht nur in seiner stets offenen Bürotür, in langen und zahlreichen Betreuungsgesprächen, sondern auch in seiner vollen Unterstützung bei der Erschließung dieses nur schwer zugänglichen Feldes. Als große Bereicherung habe ich ferner seine Denkweise empfunden: Eine undogmatische Offenheit gegenüber den verschiedensten Theorien, ein aktives Kombinieren von Klassikern mit gegenwärtigen Ansätzen und eine unerschütterliche Auffassung, dass die soziale Welt zwingend komplex ist. Diese Geisteshaltung hat mich tief beeindruckt und hat bleibende Anstöße für das eigene Denken geliefert. Bedanken möchte ich mich auch bei meiner Zweitbetreuerin, Frau Prof.
