Where they stand
Views on the record but not scoreable bets: no single number and deadline to grade. Shown in their exact words, never scored.
H1 output up 15% y/y; targets 'around 170 aircraft for 2026' (as transcribed; number likely garbled) and 'close to rate 75 or at rate 75 for the end of next year' (@38:13). Backlog of more than 9,200 aircraft; says Middle East crisis is fueling demand for fuel-efficient jets.
“So there is absolutely no doubt in my perspective that we'll get to the rate 75”
Clarifies entry into service 'in the second part of the next decade' (@39:52) with ~25% fuel-burn benefit (@40:05); engine choice (open rotor vs geared turbofan) to be decided 'the next couple of years'. Boeing's Ortberg, same show, says Boeing is 'probably not now financially' ready (@80:44).
“We have already said and we confirm that we want to launch the next generation single aisle In 2030 for an entry into service in the second head in second second”
Direct answer to Guy Johnson's question 'Can europe rearm without the americans?' (@42:08). Adds Europe 'want to be able to do more by themselves' (@42:34) and backs going to 3.5%-5% defense spending if 'well spent in europe means working together' (@43:28).
“I don't think so. I think uh The americans are allies of europe.”
