Aircraft Features:

Cockpit :

The A350 XWB’s flight deck has been built around an arrangement of six identical, interchangeable large displays. This is a continuation of Airbus’ philosophy for creating ergonomic flight decks that combine commonality and innovation giving pilots the possibility of transitioning from one Airbus aircraft type using digital fly-by-wire controls to another via difference training instead of full type rating training.

Engine:

The Rolls-Royce Trent XWB engine is the only engine option for the Airbus A350 fleet. The engine is 15 per cent lighter than the previous generation’s engines thus contributing to the overall lighter aircraft design and materials.

Wing :

The A350 XWB wing has been thoroughly tested with cutting-edge computer technology and in wind tunnels, optimising it for fast cruise speeds that reduce trip times, improve overall efficiency and extend the aircraft’s range. By intelligently controlling the A350 XWB wing’s moving surfaces using on-board computer systems, the wing will adapt while airborne – tailoring it for maximum aerodynamic efficiency in the various phases of flight.

Aeroflot Buys Used Planes for Spare Parts Amid Sanctions

In the face of ongoing Western sanctions that have severely impacted Russia’s aviation industry, Aeroflot, the country’s largest airline, has devised a strategic plan to bolster its fleet’s spare parts inventory.

The airline is set to acquire five Boeing 737-800BCF freighters from Atran Airlines, a move that will allow it to dismantle the aircraft for critical components. The planes, which will be transferred to Aeroflot’s low-cost subsidiary Pobeda, will not be converted into passenger jets but instead will be stripped for valuable parts to support existing operations.

Aeroflot’s plan to purchase these Boeing 737-800BCF freighters comes as part of a broader strategy to mitigate the effects of Western sanctions, which have crippled the Russian aviation sector. With the sanctions restricting access to essential aircraft parts and spare components, Aeroflot is exploring alternative ways to maintain and repair its fleet.

Instead of converting the freighters from cargo to passenger planes, a process deemed “unreasonably expensive” under current sanctions, the airline intends to focus on extracting high-value components such as engines, landing gear, avionics, and other essential systems.

The deal will be structured in a way that allows Aeroflot to indirectly purchase the freighters through an insurance settlement with the aircraft’s lessor, AerCap.

The Russian government’s insurance company will reimburse the aircraft’s value, and the planes will then be leased back to local operators. This method circumvents some of the restrictions imposed by international sanctions while ensuring that the airline gains access to the necessary components to support its fleet.

By dismantling the aircraft for spare parts, Aeroflot aims to secure critical resources for the ongoing maintenance of its existing fleet. Components from the Boeing 737-800BCF freighters, such as engines and avionics, are expected to be reused in other aircraft within Aeroflot’s network, ensuring that the airline can keep its operations running smoothly
