Abstract:

The author presented the results of a recent study, "Short and Medium Term Requirement for Jet Aircraft in North America". He described the Airbus Industries forecasting process which includes (a) factors affecting the pattern of aircraft orders, (b) elasticity of demand, (c) airline planning factors, and (d) the factors influencing orders for new aircraft. He described the Airbus "base case" approach, which includes likely cycles of the economy and fuel prices through 2003. He also discussed an increased congestion scenario which, if it becomes reality, would result in U.S. flights constrained at no more than 60% above current levels. He indicated that scenarios are used within Airbus to test the sensitivity of key factors or barriers, such as congestion, and to obtain a better understanding of industry dynamics.
