Aviation Briefing Prepared by ICF for ALTA 2018 Edition 1

A320neo JetTrader

by Kara Levine | Manager, ICF Angus Mackay | Principal, ICF [email protected] [email protected]

BACKGROUND

Airbus and Boeing have largely operated a duopoly in the over 100-seat aircraft market since the purchase of McDonnell Douglas by Boeing in the late 1990s. In the late 2000s, induced by sustained high fuel prices and potential challenges to the then existing industry dynamic from Bombardier with its CSeries and from China’s Comac C919, the major airframers brought forward plans to update their narrowbody product lines. Rather than waiting until the 2020s to launch new designs, Airbus (later followed by Boeing) opted to take advantage of the engine advancements from Pratt and Whitney with its geared turbofan (GTF) PW1000G and CFM International with its Leap-X engine and offer re-engined narrowbody aircraft. The advancements from the engine manufacturers, coupled with aerodynamic and airframe improvements, were expected to deliver fuel savings of up to 15 percent.

The Airbus A320neo (New Engine Option) program, comprising A319, A320 and A321 family variants, was officially launched in December 2010 and orders from Virgin America (30 A320neos) and IndiGo followed shortly thereafter. The A320neo became one of the fastest-selling aircraft ever with more than 2,000 orders placed in the two years following the program’s launch.

The primary change in the A320neo over the A320ceo (Current Engine Option) relates to the engines. Like its predecessor, the A320neo is offered with two engine options, the CFM International (CFMI) Leap-1A and the Pratt & Whitney (PW) PW1100G-JM. The Leap-1A is a significant improvement over CFM’s venerable CFM56 line that powers the A320ceo family, Boeing 737NG, and Airbus A340-200/300 aircraft. The Leap-1A incorporates scaled-down technologies from GE’s GEnx Low Pressure Turbine - such as flexible blades - as well as utilizing advanced composites materials. The bypass ratio of the engine is 11:1, an improvement over the 5-6:1 of the CFM56-5B. The Pratt & Whitney PW1100G-JM, colloquially known as the GTF, is considered a more radical technology shift, using a reduction gearbox to permit the fan of the engine to rotate at a different speed than the rest of the engine modules in order to maximize engine efficiency and reduce the number of engine stages. According to Pratt, the engine offers improved fuel efficiency of 16 percent and reduces the noise pollution by more than 50 percent. To date, both engines have experienced reliability problems.

The A320neo retains the same cabin fuselage shape and length as the earlier A320ceo, but can seat up to nine more passengers due to the “Space-Flex” cabin which introduces a new galley and lavatory configuration. Other changes to the airframe are wingtip devices known as sharklets providing a 3.5 percent increase in fuel efficiency. Sharklets were first available for retro- and line–fit on A320s starting in 2012 and are standard on the A320neo. Improved cabin air purifying systems, lighting, and storage were also introduced with the A320neo.

As of November 2017, 169 A320neo aircraft were in service with more than 28 airline operators worldwide.

24 MARKET OUTLOOK

The A320neo competes in the larger narrowbody aircraft space against its predecessor, the A320, as well as the Boeing 737- 800 and Boeing’s re-engined offering, the 737 MAX 8. To date the Airbus A320neo has recorded more than 3,500 orders and its backlog continues to outpace that of the latter aircraft. The orderbook for the aircraft is particularly strong in the Asia Pacific region, in part due to the growth of Low Cost Carriers (LCCs) such as IndiGo and AirAsia. Much of the backlog for the A320neo seems to be dedicated to traffic growth rather than replacement as the majority of the current in service fleet of the A320 is less than 10 INSIGHTS REPORT INDUSTRY years in age (2,612 out of over 4,000).

The first A320neo entered into service with Lufthansa in January 2016 and nearly 170 aircraft have been delivered. The A320ceo is also being delivered, and is likely to do so through the end of the decade due to both teething problems with the new aircraft and engines, as well as the low fuel cost environment, which has diminished the cost advantage of the A320neo with regards to fuel savings.

With respect to engine choice, the CFM Leap engine seems to be the preferred option with 38 percent of the combined backlog and in-service fleet. Nevertheless, a large number of orders are currently listed as undecided as to engine choice (almost 40 percent); however, many of the orders placed in the last year have opted for the Leap engine likely influenced by the continued PW1100G-JM issues.

The overall market for the A320neo is still ENGINE CHOICE FOR IN-SERVICE AIRCRAFT AND ORDERS developing and the aircraft has certainly faced short-term challenges with respect to engine program development. However, with the strong orderbook from a diverse set of airline operators and leasing companies, the aircraft seems destined to gain a significant market share of the large narrowbody segment. If Airbus’s bid for Bombardier passes regulatory muster, the aircraft likely will not face a significant competition outside of that offered by Boeing. As a result, it is likely that the duopoly position of the two manufacturers will continue over the next decade.

YEARBOOK 2018 25 Taking a Big Picture View of Aviation Sector Rates, Charges and Taxes INDUSTRY INSIGHTS REPORT INDUSTRY by Jared Harckham | Vice President, ICF Eric Toler | Manager, ICF [email protected] [email protected]

Some countries have experienced consistent, annual Taxes on air tickets and hotel stays, paid by passengers/ visitors double-digit growth as a result of supply and demand factors, including the expansion of the low-cost carrier model, robust Airport fees paid by passengers in their tickets economic growth, and the growing middle class.

Restrictive air service bilateral agreements which can limit aviation competition and protect inefficient airlines

This short article will not address each issue in detail but will focus on a few examples that illustrate the need for stakeholders to understand each other’s requirements and to work together for the good of multiple stakeholders as fees and taxes are established.

Airports need revenue to operate and to fund capital investments, while airlines need to keep costs at reasonable levels to permit profits and expansion. Hotels need revenue to operate, maintain, and promote their businesses, while governments need revenue to operate, create infrastructure, and to promote their destinations.

It is widely understood that the growth of air travel and expansion of air service has brought significant benefits for local economies as well as for airlines, airports and hotels, which is the big picture. Curiously, many industry beneficiaries lose sight of this and devote energy to opposing the very fees Category I and taxes that fund aviation and tourism infrastructure. This often creates unfortunate tensions among stakeholders in the aviation and tourism sectors, when they should be working as one for the common good. Fees and taxes imposed on the industry arise primarily from the stakeholders’ need to fund their operations, which is understandable. These organizations include national civil aviation departments, immigration and customs services, airports, tourism departments, and airlines, but can also include a country’s general budget.

32 Making the Case for a Middle of the Market Aircraft? INDUSTRY INSIGHTS REPORT INDUSTRY by Haitham Mellouli | Associate, ICF [email protected]

Aircraft and engine design and technology have been pushing the edge of what has been possible in the world of commercial aviation. The Boeing 787 and Airbus A350, along with the re-engined Boeing 737 and Airbus A320, have opened up new markets that were not economically feasible in the past. Routes such as Boston-Tokyo, the recently announced revival of Singapore- Newark, and Norwegian’s Europe-North America network are possible today in large part due to the innovative design, material advancement, and operating capability of new technology aircraft.

As new markets are opened at the edges of aircraft capacity and flight ranges, ICF believes there is a market in the middle ripe for a new aircraft that would provide operators with similar opportunities that the 787/A350/737MAX/A320neo provided but in a seat class category that bridges the gap between current production single aisle aircraft and smaller widebodies. Developments in the midsize space promise similarly exciting opportunities.

ICF believes the list price of such an aircraft will be in capability up to 5,500 miles. Another way to define the MoM the range of $130-160 million. (Airlines will generally pay much aircraft is an aircraft that fills the gap between the maximum less than list price.) range and capacity capabilities of the 737 MAX 10/A321neo and the larger 787-8/A330-8neo types. Further research indicates that U.S. and European carriers desire 4,500-5,500 miles of range at a capacity of around 240 seats, while Asian operators are seeking a lower range option in a higher density configuration of up to 300 seats.

YEARBOOK 2018 33 MAKING THE CASE FOR THE MOM AIRCRAFT CURRENT AIRCRAFT DESIGN LIMITATIONS

The business case for or against the MoM aircraft is often While the current offerings can complete most of the proposed debated with vigor. Opponents state that Airbus’ and Boeing’s missions of the MoM aircraft, the greatest drivers behind the current offering can sufficiently cover most markets that a demand for this MoM aircraft are operating efficiency and future MoM aircraft would serve. economic effectiveness. The 737 and A320 are already at their INDUSTRY INSIGHTS REPORT INDUSTRY design limits.

1. Current Age and Fleet Size

One driver behind the demand for a MoM aircraft is the current age and fleet size of the 757, the aircraft closest in terms of capability to the MoM. As the table below shows, the average age of serviceable 757 aircraft is nearly 23 years. As a result, many of the current in service aircraft are likely to be replaced in the near future.

Costs

As aircraft manufactures explore options to fulfill the MoM category demands, significant consideration must be given to both acquisition costs and operating costs. For commercial success, operating costs—primarily fuel, crew, and maintenance costs—must be significantly less than that of current widebodies. In fact, uncompetitive operating and capital costs were the reason that aircraft such as the 787-3 and A330 Regional types (two recent manufacturer attempts to address the MoM segment) were largely unsuccessful.

A clean sheet design would be one that can meet both the INTERNATIONAL SERVICES LAUNCHED WITH technical and financial challenges of the MoM mission profile. BOEING 787 AIRCRAFT FROM THE U.S. Incorporating a common flight deck design with another aircraft (such as the 787 for Boeing, or either the A350, A330, or A320 family for Airbus) allows pilots, flight attendants, maintenance, and other personnel to be trained on a common platform INDUSTRY INSIGHTS REPORT INDUSTRY and introduces unprecedented flexibility for operational management. This commonality is a significant advantage and is likely to be a factor in the success for any aircraft in this category.

As expected, this aircraft range of their capabilities. will make heavy use of composite materials and will feature new engine technology. The most significant part of this new development, however, is the “hybrid” design of the fuselage, which will combine the comfort and boarding efficiency of a twin-aisle widebody aircraft with the economics of a single- aisle narrowbody aircraft.

Norwegian, already a beneficiary of expansion due to the 787 and 737 MAX, has expressed interest as a launch customer of the MoM aircraft. Market interest has been reiterated by many industry leaders. John Plueger, the Chief Executive Officer of Air Lease Corporation, stated at the ISTAT Americas 2017 Source: ICF analysis based on IATA PaxIS July 2017 data. Conference that the MoM aircraft “…could be the airplane that creates the next phase of growth for the low-cost carriers.” A new MoM aircraft would not only replace aircraft operating inefficiently at well below their design capability but also Interest is not limited to Low Cost Carriers.

Given its current development cycle commitments with the 737 MAX, 777X, and 787-10, Boeing will likely target entry into service of its new MoM aircraft around 2025. Concurrently, while Airbus has the engineering bandwidth to certify an aircraft earlier, it risks cannibalizing part of its very successful A321neo program. For that reason, Airbus has chosen to continue advertising the A321neo along the A330- 8neo as the pair of aircraft best positioned to fulfill the mid-size aircraft market requirements.

When challenged on this subject some may argue that the clock starts from the day of installation, but if that were the case, it would not be a calendar controlled task. If, for example, a landing gear assembly with a twelve year overhaul life was to sit in stores for six years before installation, would it be right to wait eighteen years until the next overhaul?

ICF’s technical services and asset management team believe not, as the deterioration is driven by time as well as use. For many systems in use, the planning is controlled by a last done/ next due algorithm, but the compliance for a last done needs to be taken manually from the authorized release certificate (normally an FAA 8130-3 or EASA Form 1) date and not from the installation or task compliance date.

These new generation aircraft are more fuel-efficient than older generation aircraft. We believe we have been successful in building a strong brand by using innovative marketing and advertising techniques with low expenditures that focus on social networking tools to generate word-of-mouth recognition of our high quality service.
