Russian government to invest over $14 billion in domestic aviation industry, wants 80% of civil aircraft to be domestic — Aviation Weekly The Russian government announced plans to invest over $14 billion in its domestic aviation industry by the end of the decade as the country tries to boost domestic aircraft production. The government’s goal is for 81% of aircraft operated by Russian airlines to be domestically produced by 2030. Due to its invasion of Ukraine, Russia has faced a growing aviation crisis that has left airlines unable to service western aircraft, scrambling to find parts, and have even started cannibalizing aircraft. Airlines such as Aeroflot have also seen the delivery of new western planes such as the A350 canceled; some airliners that were on lease to Russian airlines have also been repossessed, and some inside the country have also been seized. However, this is only a temporary solution as the Russian government has started to re-register these aircraft, allowing airlines to resume operations with them.At the start of 2022, Aeroflot operated a fleet of 187 aircraft; of these, only ten were produced in Russia. Because of this and the sanctions on spare parts, the airline is looking to order 300 domestically produced Irkut MC-21 aircraft from the Russian United Aircraft C […]

Envoy Air to offer pilots triple pay in July as they continue their effort to combat flight cancelations — Aviation Weekly American Airlines’ largest regional carrier Envoy Air is offering pilots triple the pay to pick up trips in July in an effort to avoid flight disruptions during the peak summer travel season. This follows Envoy’s recent announcement saying the airline would raise pilots’ pay by 50 percent until August 2024 to combat the industry-wide shortage of pilots; this pay hike places Envoy pilots among the highest paid in the regional industry.Envoy operates 163 aircraft and employs over 2,500 pilots; the airline expects to lose as many as 300 pilots to American Airlines’ mainline fleet this year due to its flow-through program. American Airlines CEO Robert Isom recently said the carrier’s regional partners, such as Envoy, were forced to park up to 100 aircraft this summer due to the pilot shortage.Envoy said, “Supercritical coverage has been declared from July 2 to 31 for all the airlines’ bases” the statement continued, “Any open time flown during this time frame will be paid at 300%. Thank you in advance for your help.”This temporary pay raise will allow the airline to minimize the summer travel disruptions that have been heavily affecting airlines worldwide, with over 2,800 flights canceled in the U.S. alone on Memorial Day weeken […]

Qatar Airways 777 near collision with air balloon landing in São Paulo, forced to make evasive maneuver — Aviation Weekly A Qatar Airways Boeing 777-300ER was forced to make evasive maneuvers while approaching São Paulo yesterday when an unmanned hot air balloon drifted into the aircraft’s approach path. The aircraft, a Boeing 777-300ER registration A7-BEV operating flight QR779 from Doha Hamad International Airport (DOH) to São Paulo Guarulhos International Airport (GRU), was on approach to GRU when an unmanned hot-air-balloon drifted into the aircraft’s flight path, luckily the pilots were able to spot the hot-air-balloon and made evasive maneuvers to avoid a collision. The incident was witnessed by Rafael Freitas, who was photographing aircraft landing at the airport (plane-spotting). According to Freitas, “the Boeing 777 came in a little misaligned with the runway to avoid the balloon. When it had passed the balloon, it turned to correct its alignme […]

Airlines cancel over 100 flights daily from Amsterdam Schiphol as restrictions are set to cut over 13,500 seats daily — Aviation Weekly As the staffing shortages continue at airports all over Europe, Amsterdam’s Schiphol International Airport has been facing hours-long waits at security, baggage claim, and passport control. The airport has announced slot restrictions to cut over 13,500 seats (about 100 flights) daily from the airport as a response; this has left airlines with less capacity than expected for the record summer travel demand following the COVID-19 pandemic. KLM, whose central hub is Schiphol, has already said it will hold the airport responsible for any financial impacts. It has strongly criticized the airport for its staffing shortages resulting in a limited capacity. Many flights have also been diverted to nearby airports such as Rotterdam, Eindhoven, and Brussels.Important to note is Amsterdam Schiphol is not the only airport in Europe currently facing disruptions; it is part of a much larger crisis currently facing Europe. London’s Heathrow International Airport has also been facing disruptions, though not as severe, with slots only restricting 11,000 seats daily; in Paris, over 10,000 seats were set to be cut daily before the airport’s operator, ADP, worked out a deal with the w […]
