The 5 New Commercial Aircraft That Will Change The Way We Travel

While the year 2020 has been challenging for the aviation industry as a whole, it has provided a glimpse of the next generation of commercial aircraft. Aircraft efficiency and zero-emission technologies are anticipated to bring about the greatest changes. Commercial aviation travel in the future may potentially look considerably different from what we anticipate.

[@Truth-of-the-matter]

Given the current design of airports it will be hard to completely redesign aircraft if they are unable to fit into the gates. I think airplanes will remain fairly close to current designs but the biggest modifications will be more aerodynamic wings and more fuel efficient engines. Ideally if engines could use biofuels that were cheaper to source (and cleaner) I think that would make a huge impact on air travel.

[@7yrsand]

Biofuels at altitude...pfft

[@jonsant7232]

Totally agree with you that airports all around the world had to make costly alterations to accept the A380 it would crazy to redesign the world's airports for one type of Aircraft as for biofuels I have no idea but never say never

[@avand2794]

On a small scale biofuels are sustainable, but on a large scale they aren't, unless we start growing plant artificially in very efficiently spaced buildings or whatever, which I don't see happening as that is very expensive for a product which is produced in a very inefficient manner...

[@avand2794]

You might ask then, what are you going to fuel aircraft then? That is what engineers are looking for now (biofuels are still being researched also) but it's probably going to be hydrogen, or perhaps some kind of nuclear propulsion.

[@aspmusic5904]

If your airports concern is due to the V-shaped planes, then as long as the wingspan of those V-shaped planes does not exceed that of the widest incumbent plane, then all good.

[@orlandonelthorpe9027]

Well considering that the plane was actually devised by the UK, and they went to the French to aid with funding (the US was not interested as it was developing a similar jet of its own), the Concorde was really 'Anglo'. The French, in my view, got disproportionate kudos for the plane.

[@PureMatteo]

​@@orlandonelthorpe9027 The fact a country reaches out and a treaty is made doesn't make the plane more of the first country than of the second. Most of the engines and power + supersonic experience came from the british from obvious similar planes (the french had fast planes, but not with the kind of wings that would work in supercruise, notably the Avro). The brits started from the avro and starfighter experience. Long story short they ended up with a project but were lacking in several key areas, reaching out to sud aviation, Nord and.. dassault which is not unfamiliar with supersonic endeavours. All 3 made a design of their own that merged with the brits early design. The "super caravelle" design from Sud Aviation won the competition, for being pretty close to the british design. Both parties agreed on everything for the design except for size and range, but they quickly agreed on making 2 variants (one with bigger fuselage and 6 engines for improved range). The name "concorde" was chosen for its meaning, similar to "union/harmony" between the two teams. A lot of the engine work was indeed english, a lot of the fuselage work was french, the wing itself mostly english because of the original design although in cooperation with sud aviation. Construction was 50/50. It all led to Airbus Industries. It's pretty safe to say it's overall a 50/50 project.

The Concorde was a failure for some reasons. Also clima change is real and there is no point in (fuel guzzling and super high emissions) supersonic airtravel in our times for a few people, thats why the Boom won´t be a success, in my view. The aerospace industry has to adapt, not with the old supersonic concept of the 50`and 60`s ofg the last century, but with single aisle long-haul planes like the Airbus A321 XL and the A220-500: That means less weight, less full consumption and less emissions before we have other concepts available like the V shaped planes.

@@NikanDragosysSerpenDra You edited your comment and I still can’t understand it. The 757 opened up transcon/overseas flights for carriers that didn’t want to use a 767 or didn’t have them. The A220-500 would do the same for carriers that don’t want use a NEOLR or don’t have them. I believe B6 is already planning to do this with the CS3. Frontier is struggling to fill their 321s. I imagine most budget carriers would. So a CS3 or A225 would be great for them. Long range for smaller capacity, with (in my opinion) great comfort. Cabin designed to be spacious at 2x3 and I believe they made it impossible for 3x3.

Other than the flying wing planes, the other aircraft can already take advantage of the new technology the new aircraft will bring. Such as putting on the newer engines on the older models, making the older models more fuel efficient and faster. Or stretching some of the current models such as the 737, 757 and so on. Same with the current Airbus aircraft. As for the 747's, they are already no longer in production. The last 747 rolled off the production line on Dec. 7. So wasn't no point in even mentioning them. But if you are going to mention the 747's, then you might as well mention the DC-10 that are still in use though not in passenger service.

The Boom Overture may not become a reality now, but it would've catapulted the industry to newer, and exciting heights. We would only dream to see this airplane actually be built and enter service. It would've cost a fortune to continue this program. The fact that a sufficient Power Plant could not be found, it still would create a big problem of unfortunate proportions. The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is an amazing airplane that is doing quite well with airlines that need it primarily for long-haul, and also capacity. I am hoping for Boeing, to develop a 787 freighter version really soon. The 777-9X is an exciting new approach for higher capacity and long-haul. However, based on the Pandemic, and COVID 19 issues, the program was frozen for some time. Finally, and hopefully it will start service with the airlines soon. It's gonna be an airplane that will be loved by all crews, and passengers alike. The 777-8X will also become a big step for Boeing for an ultra-long-range airplane. The A350-900, and 1000 are also two great selling airplanes for Airbus. These are two great developments I see many more of being produced, and to also mention the A350-900 freighter version that is forthcoming.

Boom Jet: Still no engines, still banned flying supersonic over land, still outrageously expensive for seats… so not likely and never by 2026. 3. Stretched A220: Too stretched will cause issues similar to 737 with tail strike issues, landing speed increases, and lower thrust weight ratios; these all hinder performance and will limit where it can fly. Not to mention big profit source for trans-con is mail/cargo, which narrow bodies carry less of… so possible but maybe not best option. 4. XLR: Delays… see what Airbus can do. A stretched 320 will never have as good of performance as 757, but it gets better fuel economy. Likely. 5. 777X: Boing keeps screwing up so this has multiple delays / cost overruns. United and others said they don’t want it. It will mainly have cargo buyers if it ever makes it production. Maybe.

Some of these concepts remind me of the 1920s - 1950's Popular Science/Mechanics articles - interesting but not there and only in the minds of the 'inventors' . With that said, I do hope that some of these outside of the box ideas come to real life.

So nothing changes with air travel. We’ll all still be crammed into a metal tube.

Any flier does not care how much fuel a plane uses! Fossil fuels regenerate! Saving money is another thing !

All of this means more money for the airlines, higher prices and fewer amenities and higher luggage costs for passengers.

Flying long haul is a no go for me. Hyperloop please

Sadly I can't see super sonic aircraft being practical unless the sonic boom can be eliminated, the current future has to be better twin engine jets like the 787, 777 and Airbus A350, A220 and A320 personally I'll miss the Queen 747 and of course the beautiful Concorde

If the WEF/Net Zero crowd get their way, which all indications affirm right now, then there will not be any more air travel for us peasants within a few short years. Air travel will be the preserve of the rich and the rulers as they move between their large estates, while the rest of us get to look up at them whizzing overhead as we huddle in our 15 minute cities munching on some tasty bugs, owning nothing but immensely happy! 😆
