Lock in the best fuel efficiency
There’s a lot of security in choosing LEAP. Not only does it yield
the very best performance out of the box, but it will also pay
long-term dividends in the form of best-in-class fuel burn
retention. Add in CFM’s legendary reliability and you’ve made
one savvy investment.

BEHIND THE

THE WEEK ON THE WEB

Flightglobal’s operations and
safety editor
David Learmount
The DEW Line
notes that while the US
government
(

) joined
EasyJet, Airbus and
Nicarnica Aviation
spending
sequestration
has kept US air power away from
at a presen-
tation at the airframer’s
Toulouse
air shows –
Paris
was certainly poorer for that – either
they’ve come up with some
cash or the ban doesn’t apply
to shows in the
site to learn more
about their pioneering work to
develop an ash cloud detection
system for commercial aircraft.
If put into widespread use the
Avoid technology – created by Dr
Fred Prata (
left
) – could mitigate
the disruption caused by an
eruption similar to that of
Iceland’s Eyjafjallajökul volcano
that closed the majority of
European airspace in 2010.
. Dubai
air show organisers are
promising a treat from the
Gulf
US
Air Force
,
Navy
and
Marine
Corps
. On a lighter note,
Hyperbola
likes the rise of
Captain James Kirk
to command of the super-stealthy USS
Zumwalt
missile cruiser. That’s not James T Kirk, but close
enough for a name check. At the
Ariel View
, our man in Tel
Aviv reports on an
air force move to develop an
advanced imaging system to provide the complete, real-time
aerial picture needed to
Israeli
the mere minutes that
separate entry into Israeli air space of a
manage
hostile threat
and
its dense
population
centres.
