  • China's Growing Market for Large Civil Aircraft
    ID-18 OFFICE OF INDUSTRIES WORKING PAPER U.S. International Trade Commission China’s Growing Market for Large Civil Aircraft Peder Andersen Office of Industries U.S. International Trade Commission February 2008 The author is with the Office of Industries of the U.S. International Trade Commission. Office of Industries working papers are the result of the ongoing professional research of USITC staff and solely represent the opinions and professional research of individual authors. These papers do not necessarily represent the views of the U.S. International Trade Commission or any of its individual Commissioners. Working papers are circulated to promote the active exchange of ideas between USITC staff and recognized experts outside the USITC, and to promote professional development of office staff by encouraging outside professional critique of staff research. ADDRESS CORRESPONDENCE TO: OFFICE OF INDUSTRIES U.S. INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION WASHINGTON, DC 20436 USA Abstract China will likely become the largest market in the world for new large civil aircraft (LCA), with global LCA manufacturers expecting to sell 100 LCA per year in the Chinese market for the next twenty years, or one every three to four days, at a total value ranging up to $350 billion. The challenge for western LCA producers in meeting this demand comes less from each other than from the regulation of China’s market by its government, the lack of adequate air transport infrastructure to serve its population, and China’s nascent attempt at building its own LCA. Should China continue to aggressively address governmental and infrastructure restraints, it will benefit through increased trade and tourism, both of which will spur LCA sales to satisfy air transport demand.

  • Partners in Flight Fast-Growing China Aviation Market Presents Opportunities for Both Boeing and China
    Partners in flight Fast-growing China aviation market presents opportunities for both Boeing and China By Eric Fetters-Walp eople in China have sought ways to soar in the skies for millennia, beginning with the world’s first known kites more than 2,000 years ago. By the 13th century, PChinese military leaders were using rockets. And when the age of flight dawned in the early 20th century, Chinese-born Feng Ru gained nationwide attention in the United States by testing a powered airplane in 1909, just a year after the Wright Brothers’ first powered flight. When Bill Boeing sought the first aeronautical engineer for his company in 1916, he hired Wong Tsoo, who helped to design the Model C seaplane, Boeing’s very first production airplane. From that storied history, China’s aerospace industry and airlines are propelling fast into the future, with Boeing poised to provide airplanes, manufacturing capability and quality and aviation services. President Hu Jintao of China has called Boeing a household name in that country, and it needs to remain such as competition grows, said Shep Hill, president of Boeing International. “We have to make sure that even though China is familiar with Boeing and recognizes a legacy of cooperation, that we continue to look forward together.” – Shep Hill, president of Boeing International PHOTO: Symbolic of the close partnership between Boeing and China, an Air China Next-Generation 737 flies over China’s Great Wall.

    To Our Readers, The way that we celebrate 35 years is to bring back all the stories and people that have populated these pages for another turn, along with newly discovered friends and colleagues. We were once a local newspaper published for the cargo people in the United States. In 1975, we were the only monthly Air Cargo News newspaper in the world. Today, as Air Cargo News FlyingTypers, we are once again alone as the oldest (and still the only E- mailed), thrice weekly, 140 issues-a-year air cargo news source. “I don’t know how you do it—to publish so often and with so much content,” is a comment we often hear. Air Cargo News FlyingTypers does it because throughout our history we have worked to forge a bond of trust between our readers and ourselves. Today we are the number one news and features air cargo publication on the planet in terms of every known metric. When someone says I read it in FlyingTypers—believe it. From our readers has come the juice that powers our desire to continue to serve air cargo. The good news is that 35 years after beginning this journey into air cargo, we are still around and Geoffrey Arend and Sabiha Arend at the remain young in our thinking with the involvement of a next generation of Air Cargo News FlyingTyp- National Historic Trust in May 1986. ers.
