Airbus to Showcase Future of Flight at Dubai Airshow 2019
/Airbus will showcase its technologies, products and services from market leading commercial and military aircraft to helicopters and space systems at the Dubai Airshow, November 17-21, 2019.
On the static display, visitors will be able to get up close to Airbus’ range of commercial aircraft. This includes the A350-900, the cornerstone member of the A350 XWB Family, Salam Air’s A320neo, from the single-aisle aircraft family, as well as EGYPTAIR’s A220-300, the newest member of the Airbus single-aisle family. Airbus will also display an ACJ319 from K5 Aviation, echoing the trend towards larger cabins in new-generation business jets. An ACJ319, operated by K5 Aviation on VVIP charters, will feature the widest and tallest cabin of any business jet.
In the customers’ display, Emirates Airline and Etihad Airways will showcase their A380s, giving the opportunity to tour the popular double-decker and see its award-winning products across all classes.
The daily flying display will include the A330-900, a variant of the Airbus A330neo, as well the A400M airlifter.
Airbus Helicopters will display Kuwait Police’s H225. The 11-ton twin-engine helicopter is the choice of commercial operators and governmental agencies due to its long range and all-weather capabilities.
Meanwhile, Airbus Defence and Space will present the A400M new generation airlifter and the highly versatile C295 military transport and mission aircraft as well as the A330 MRTT, “Multi-Role Tanker-Transport”, the only combat-proven new-generation tanker.
As the official founding partner of Air Race E, Airbus will present the first example of an electric race plane scheduled to compete in the world’s first electric airplane race series launching in 2020. The competition will drive the development of cleaner, faster and more technologically advanced electric engines that can be applied to urban air mobility vehicles and eventually, commercial aircraft.
At the Global Air Traffic Management show in the exhibition hall, booth 157, Airbus UTM and Airbus companies Metron Aviation and NAVBLUE will demonstrate how Airbus is helping the Air Traffic Management industry minimize delays, reduce fuel costs and balance demand and capacity through Air Traffic Flow Management (ATFM).
