Both the 737-10, the largest member of the Max&nbsp;family, and the 777-9 will take part in the Paris Airshow’s flying display, while Boeing subsidiary Wisk Aero debuts its all-electric, autonomous sixth-generation air taxi.
“The 737 Max&nbsp;family has received more than 3,500 net orders, and its advanced aerodynamic design and highly-efficient engines reduce fuel use and emissions 20 percent and the noise footprint 50 percent compared to airplanes it replaces,” the OEM said.
Boeing will also demonstrate its “Cascade” climate impact model, a data-modeling tool recently made available to the public to provide actionable insights toward the aviation industry’s goal of net-zero emissions by 2050. “The company will also debut a new tool that tracks sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) capacity around the world and provide an update on delivering 100 percent SAF-compatible airplanes by 2030,” it said.
In the defense sphere, Boeing is displaying rotorcraft platforms including the CH-47F Chinook and AH-64D Apache, as well as its mobility and surveillance aircraft, the P-8A Poseidon and KC-46A Pegasus. Other aircraft on display include the B-1B Lancer, C-17 Globemaster, and F-15E Strike Eagle.&nbsp;Fledgling flag carrier Saudi Arabia’s Riyadh Air will also display a Boeing-owned 787-9 in its new livery during the show.
“As our industry returns to Le Bourget, we look forward to joining our customers, suppliers, and partners at a time when commercial air travel demand is surging and defense platforms are more critical to global security,” said Brendan Nelson, president of Boeing Global.&nbsp;“With sustainable growth at the forefront of the next 100 years, we will continue to collaborate around the globe to support aviation’s commitment to net-zero emissions by 2050.”
