\"\"Lufthansa Technik signs TCS deal with SmartLynx Airlines:<\/strong> Lufthansa Technik has signed a seven-year contract with Smart Lynx Airlines, the leading ACMI (Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance and Insurance), cargo and charter services provider, to provide Total Component Support (TCS) for their entire fleet. The recently signed contract covers more than 60 aircraft, including 53 Airbus A320s, 10 A330s and four Boeing 737 MAXs. SmartLynx Airlines has experienced rapid growth in recent years and is now focused on excellence and reliability for its customers. By partnering with Lufthansa Technik, SmartLynx Airlines aims to optimise its service and achieve better performance. The TCS contract has gone into effect on May 1 and includes services such as spare parts pooling and MRO (Maintenance, Repair & Overhaul) for the required components. SmartLynx Airlines will benefit from an individual supply concept that enables short and fast transport paths within Lufthansa Technik\u2019s global supply chain, including AOG (Aircraft On Ground) support for time-critical components.<\/p>\n

\"\"Deutsche Aircraft announces launch customer for new D328eco:<\/strong>\u00a0Deutsche Aircraft and Private Wings announced they have signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) for the delivery of five D328eco aircraft, the new 40-seater sustainable turboprop regional airliner from Deutsche Aircraft. The D328eco will facilitate sustainable regional connections as it offers the lowest fuel consumption and CO2 emissions on the market. This aircraft is designed to operate on 100 percent SAF power-to-liquid (PtL), which can reduce CO2 emissions by up to 95 percent. The outstanding flight characteristics and versatility of the D328eco allow it to reach destinations with short and unpaved runways in challenging weather conditions. This will open up new routes to connect businesses and people. An integrated Garmin Companion flight deck, brand-new PW127XT-S engines and a comfortable and quiet cabin make the D328eco turboprop ahead of its time: an innovative and robust aircraft which offers maximum comfort for passengers and flight crew. The combination of these features sets the D328eco apart as the most efficient, modern and sustainable regional aircraft in its class.<\/p>\n

\"\"Lufthansa Technik pre-launches VIP cabin design for the BBJ 777-9:<\/strong>\u00a0The cabin design takes full advantage of the vast space available on the BBJ 777-9, formerly referred to as the BBJ 777X aircraft, and prioritises versatility and multifunctionality. The design showcases an impressive array of stunning features. It furthermore maximises space and comfort, and incorporates traditional elements of Middle Eastern cultural heritage with a modern twist. One of the standout features is the VVIP section at the front with a unique private bedroom that is expandable and highly functional. The detailed design will be revealed later this year. A spacious office and reception area divides the private section from the remaining areas of the aircraft. The cabin also boasts a large majlis, with a design that seamlessly flows throughout the entire cabin. The back of the cabin has been designed to transport entourage delegations in style and convenience to cater for the needs of official missions. A special light and window shade concept has been implemented throughout the cabin, giving passengers the feeling of being in their personal living room rather than on a plane at 30,000 feet, particularly important for an ultra-long range aircraft.<\/p>\n

\"AviatorPegasus Airlines Receives Credit Rating Upgrade:\u00a0<\/strong>Pegasus Airlines\u2019 successful financial performance in 2022 has resulted in an upgrade in its credit rating. Pegasus Airlines\u2019 long-term credit rating was upgraded from B+ to BB- by Fitch Ratings Limited (Fitch) on 14 April 2023 and from B to B+ by S&P Global Ratings (S&P) on 23 May 2023.

The international credit rating agencies have also revised the credit rating of the senior unsecured debt issued by Pegasus Airlines accordingly. In the reports published by Fitch and S&P, the rating upgrade is attributed to Pegasus Airlines\u2019 strong operational and financial results in 2022 and the subsequent quarterly period.

\"\"Judge rules for Boeing victims\u2019 families:<\/strong>\u00a0A federal judge in Chicago ruled Tuesday (May 30, 2023) that the families who suffered the loss of a loved one in the 2019 crash of a Boeing 737 MAX8 jet killing all 157 on board can obtain damages for the victims\u2019 pain and suffering while on the plane before it crashed six minutes after takeoff. Federal District Court Judge Jorge Alonso of the Northern District of Illinois ruled late Tuesday that, \u201cA jury could reasonably infer from the evidence that will be presented at trial that the passengers on ET 302 perceived that they were going to crash, horrifically, to their certain death.\u201d Boeing admitted sole and complete liability for the crash that came five months after another crash of the same type of aircraft minutes after takeoff from Indonesia. In a three-hour hearing, Boeing lawyers had argued that all died instantly and, therefore, weren\u2019t entitled to such damages. In the Ethiopia crash, six cases are set to go to trial before Judge Alonso June 20.\u00a0 About 75 remain unresolved of the 157 who were on board. Robert A. Clifford, founder and senior partner of Clifford Law Offices and Lead Counsel in the consolidated litigation before Judge Alonso said of the ruling, \u201cWe are pleased with the court\u2019s ruling. Boeing\u2019s victims undeniably suffered horrific emotional distress, pain and suffering, and physical impact and injury while they endured extreme G-forces, braced for impact, knew the airplane was malfunctioning, and ultimately plummeted nose-down to the ground at nearly 600 miles per hour, leaving a crater 30 feet deep. We look forward to upcoming trials to present this evidence to a jury and ensure Boeing is held fully accountable.\u201d Clifford went on to say, \u201cThis is a significant and strong win for the families. In a very controlled and fair measure, with his oversight at trial, the judge will allow them to push forward the claims of emotional distress experienced by their loved ones who needlessly died at the hands of a company that put profits over safety and allowed the crash to occur that could have been completely avoided.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"Review of Australia\u2019s Southport airspace commences:<\/strong>\u00a0The Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) is reviewing the Gold Coast airspace in which two helicopters tragically collided in January. CASA is seeking direct feedback from pilots and operators separate to the Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) investigation into the Sea World Helicopters accident on 2 January. An initial review of the airspace has not indicated there are any safety issues relating to airspace arrangements, but this broader work will seek input from airspace users and operators. \u201cWhile there\u2019s no indication at this stage that airspace design played a part in this devastating accident, we want to make sure we\u2019ve given all pilots and airspace users the opportunity to provide their views on airspace arrangements,\u201d CASA Branch Manager Air Navigation, Airspace and Aerodromes, Adrian Slootjes, said. \u201cThe first stage of this work involves collecting data to inform a formal airspace review. We\u2019ve had people on the ground last week observing operations and talking to operators. This will be used alongside information we receive through our broader consultation activities. We want all pilots and operators that fly in this area to let us know about their experiences.\u201d Data will be collected to help CASA analyse aircraft operations, aircraft landing areas, helicopter landing sites and the surrounding airspace. This will be used to inform a formal airspace review. The accident is subject to an Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) investigation that is anticipated to be completed in the second half of 2024.<\/p>\n

\"\"Air Alg\u00e9rie orders five Airbus A330-900s and two A350-1000s:<\/strong>\u00a0Air Alg\u00e9rie, the national airline of Algeria, has signed a firm order for seven widebody aircraft to support its commercial development. This order will allow Air Alg\u00e9rie to take full advantage of the flexibility of the Airbus product range, strengthen its regional services and offer an ambitious plan for transcontinental destinations.
