Airliner World Magazine May 2020 Vorige editie

The May 2020 edition of Airliner World is the biggest ever! It comes to you as the aviation industry faces a wave of unprecedented issues on a level never previously thought possible. With the sector on its knees, we examine how carriers worldwide are responding to the COVID-19 pandemic. We have exclusive analysis from our correspondents around the world who provide local insight from their region.

Elsewhere in the May issue – a special 250th edition – Airliner World editor Gordon Smith sits down with Randy Tinseth, Boeing’s vice president of marketing, about the ongoing Boeing 737 MAX grounding and how the US manufacturer is responding to competition, before looking to the future with a focus on environmental sustainability. We also chart the end of a British regional pioneer Flybe and examine the impact its demise leaves behind. We also fondly look back at some of the former liveries and aircraft types associated with the carrier. Other highlights include tri-motoring around paradise in the Caribbean and the conclusion of our exciting two-part British Airtours feature.

To mark our 250th issue, we reflect on the 21 years in aviation since ALW’s first edition in May 1999. We hear from some familiar names from the past and have a fantastic reader competition – you really don’t want to miss it!

We also bring you our comprehensive coverage of worldwide news along with our regular sections, including commercial aircraft acquisitions, up-to-date accident reports, aviation training and MRO, all joined by the debut of our historic aviation page.
