What does S7 Airlines' first Airbus A320neo look like? real flight, and not in pictures from presentations? Let's get a look.

↓ 2. A colleague boarded one of the first Airbus A320neo (VQ-BCF) flights of S7 Airlines from Novosibirsk to Moscow. At my request, I shared photos - I’ll show you and save them here for history. Please forgive the quality of the pictures (taken on a phone), it’s just interesting to look at this iconic aircraft for S7 Airlines in real flight, and not just on beautiful cards from official presentations in Toulouse and Moscow. Externally, the A320neo differs from regular A320s in that it has larger engines (in the case of the S7, it also has a new livery - neo is in the new one, and all 320 S7s are in the old one). The new engines seem to be less noisy, more environmentally friendly and economical. However, during launch and takeoff, it did not seem to us that the engines were noisier than usual (we filmed the takeoff at a distance of about 150 meters); on the contrary, the sound was more reminiscent of powerful wide-body airliners such as the A330. However, they say that inside the plane during flight the noise is still really less than usual.

↓ 3. Safety instructions (safety card). There is slightly more legroom than the previous version.

↓ 4. The cups and napkins have not undergone any changes:) But in the chairs themselves there are sockets with a USB connector (there are no photos with them, unfortunately), you can recharge the gadget.

↓ 5. On the back of the chair at eye level there is a mount for a tablet or phone - if anyone wants to watch a movie on them, it will come in handy. Although it’s more convenient to put the laptop on the table and look at it, what if you don’t want to carry it around with it and decide not to take it on a trip?

↓ 6. A320neo interior and spacious luggage racks.

↓ 7. The portholes are new and clean, excellent view.

↓ 8. All A320neos are equipped with wingtips of an updated design, which reduce the cost of maintaining the aircraft, as well as slightly increase the flight range (+150 km) or maximum load (+500 kg). Of course, it was a great idea to place the S7 logo on the sharklets - soon there will be a lot of such photos on Instagram.

Thank you for your attention.

Airbus A320neo— deep modernization of the Airbus A320 family of narrow-body medium-haul airliners. The abbreviation NEO stands for New Engine Option. The modernization program was launched by Airbus in 2010 and involved replacing the outdated power plant with new engines from the Pratt & Whitney PW1000G and CFM International LEAP-1A families. Non-reengined A320 family aircraft continue to be produced under the name A320ceo (Current Engine Option).

Story

By the end of the first decade of the 21st century, Airbus had completed work on its flagship A380 airliner and continued work on the new A350. However, in order to improve their position in competition with Boeing, as well as with airliners that in the future were to be created in Russia () and China (), Airbus decided to modernize their most popular aircraft - the .

Back in 2006, Airbus launched the A320E (Enhanced) program. The program involved making improvements to the design and systems of the aircraft in order to achieve a 4-5% increase in economic performance. This was planned to be achieved by installing new winglets (2%), improving the aerodynamics of the airframe (1%), as well as reducing the total weight of the aircraft and installing a new passenger compartment. It was also possible to reduce fuel consumption by modifying the classic CFM56 and V2500 engines.

However, over time, it became clear that this was not enough and it was necessary to carry out more radical work on the liners. The creation of new aircraft was not considered; the A320 was created in the late 1980s and is considered a fairly young aircraft. Therefore, it was decided to modernize a number of systems and install completely new engines (hence the name NEO - New Engine Option - New Engine Option. At this time, Pratt & Whitney, as well as its competitor, the CFM International concern, created new generation engines for medium-haul airliners.

At that time, it was believed that Airbus would be able to sell about 4,000 new generation aircraft within 15 years, and the cost of the program would cost approximately a billion euros. At the same time, the cost of the updated aircraft will be $6 million higher than the cost of its predecessor (CEO model). This cost, in addition to more expensive engines, includes an increase in the price of the airframe ($3.5 million) and the installation of sharklets (about $0.9 million).

Work on the new model was carried out at a fairly high pace. The first A320neo aircraft took off in 2014, 4 years after the initiation of the NEO program. The certification was conducted using several aircraft equipped with both engine options: the Pratt & Whitney PW1100G and the CFM International LEAP-1A. During testing, aircraft with these engines flew for about 4,000 hours.

The A320neo aircraft went on regular flights in the spring of 2016, the enlarged A321neo model arrived to customers half a year later, and another half a year later the smaller A319neo model aircraft began to be delivered.

Construction and improvements

In general design, the A320neo is similar to the base A320 - it is a low-wing jet with a low-sweep wing and two engines suspended on pylons. Aircraft of different generations are 95% similar. However, the modernization program introduced many changes.

Sharklets

Airbus launched a project to create new wingtips in 2009. These large winglets are structurally close to the new carbon fiber winglets that were being created at that time. Due to their external resemblance to shark fins, they began to be called Sharklet - a compilation of the word Shark and Winglet (the common name for wingtips).

Sharklets are manufactured by KAAD (Korean Air Aerospace Division). They have a height of 2.5 meters and a total weight of 200 kg. For a standard flight of 2800 km, they reduce fuel consumption by 3.5%. At the same time, over the entire period of operation of the aircraft, they reduce carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere by 700 tons.

Salon

The aircraft's interiors have also undergone major modernization. In addition to purely design changes, the efficiency of using the internal space was increased (primarily, the luggage racks were increased). The new salon is equipped with more efficient air filters and catalytic converters, which neutralize any unpleasant odors that may enter the aircraft. All lighting is made using energy-efficient diodes. The cabin is controlled by the crew using touch panels.

In addition, an optional Cabin-Flex configuration was developed for the airliners. It involves the installation of modified doors and allows for more flexibility in changing the layout of the rear galley and toilets, as well as accommodating 20 more passengers on the A321 and 9 more passengers on the A320 without compacting seating. The installation of new doors increases the dry weight of the aircraft by 100 kg.

At the same time, fuel efficiency per passenger seat increases by 6%, and in the full configuration of the NEO family, the increase in efficiency reaches 20%.

Engines

The main difference between the NEO family and the previous generation are completely new engines. They are also the main visual difference - the LEAP-1A and PW1100G models are much larger than their predecessors: the old engines had a fan diameter of 68 inches (about 173 cm), while the diameter of the new ones reaches 81 inches (more than 205 cm).

In 2010, at the Singapore Airshow, Airbus announced the start of a tender to select new engines for the NEO family. The choice ultimately fell on the two most advanced new engines at that time, CFM LEAP-1A and P&W PW1100G. New power plants burn 16% less fuel, however, their efficiency has decreased by 1-2% due to the fact that they are not installed on a completely new airliner, but on modernized, but still old, aircraft. At the same time, Airbus, thanks to the new engines, also managed to reduce the cost of servicing the power plant by 20% compared to older models.

The aircraft's fuel capacity remains virtually unchanged and, thanks to lower in-flight consumption, the A320neo can carry 2 tonnes more cargo or fly 950 km further.

Engine models are selected by the customer. The first flight prototype of the A320neo was equipped with PW1100G-JM engines. It received FAA certification in 2014.

Both new A320neo powerplants are significantly quieter than their predecessors (the noise level on takeoff does not exceed 83 - 85 dB - for older engines this figure exceeds 100 dB).

Airbus A320neo - new generation. History and description of the airliner

Modifications

Airbus serially produces 3 modifications of the NEO family. These are the A319neo, A320neo and A321neo models. Due to the low demand for the youngest model A318, it was decided not to release it (at least until potential customers appeared).

A319 neo

The Airbus A319neo is the youngest model of the family with a short fuselage and a capacity of up to 160 passengers. The launch customer was to be an airline Qatar Airways However, in the contract it replaced the order for the A319 with an order for the A320. On regular flights not yet in operation (as of 2017).

The A320neo is the base and most popular model. The aircraft made its first flight in September 2014. Has a capacity of up to 195 passengers.

The airliner was handed over to the launch customer, Lufthansa, in 2016. After six months of operation, it was announced that the airline had achieved a 20% reduction in costs per passenger and an operational reliability of 8 aircraft of 99.7%.

As of March 2017, there were 88 aircraft in the fleets of 20 airlines: 49 with PW1000G engines and 39 with CFM LEAP-1A engines. The aircraft made more than 37 thousand flights and spent more than 57 thousand hours in the air (on average, about 1.5 hours per flight).

A321neo is the oldest and most spacious model of the family. In 1-class configuration it can accommodate up to 240 passengers. With increased weight, the aircraft has a reinforced landing gear and a wing of increased area.

The aircraft made its first flight in February 2016. Until 2017, the aircraft received EASA and FAA certificates with both powerplant options.

The first operator of aircraft of this model was Virgin America (184 seats in two classes with LEAP engines).

A321 LR

In addition to the A321neo, Airbus is creating a version with an extended range. The plane is designed to seat 164 passengers. The reduction in capacity is compensated by the installation of additional fuel tanks. In this configuration, the aircraft has a range of 7,400 km - more than with lower operating costs (27%). The aircraft is planned to be brought to market in 2018.

Orders and deliveries

The A320neo family was announced in 2010. By 2012, Airbus had orders for 2,000 aircraft - this record speed contracting in the history of commercial aviation. As of 2017, the order portfolio exceeds 5,000 units from 72 operators around the world, of which more than a hundred have already been delivered to the fleets of 24 airlines.

In 2010, the European aircraft manufacturing concern Airbus announced the start design work over A320neo. This narrow-body jet is the result of a deep redesign of the basic version of the A320.

At the presentation of the A320neo in 2011 in Paris, Airbus entered into deals whose total value exceeded sixty billion dollars.

In 2014, the first copy took off into the skies of France. Two years later, the German carrier Lufthansa received this new product for use. The cost of the liner is up to 110 million dollars.

The A320neo family also includes the A319neo (short) and A321neo (long).

Airbus A320neo is an improved model with a fundamentally new category of engines. Installing large (more than 2 meters in diameter) LEAP-1A or PW1100G engines on an aircraft contributes to the following changes:

• reduction in kerosene consumption by 15 - 17%
• reduction in operating costs by 8 – 10%
• reduction of harmful emissions into the natural atmosphere by more than 10%
• noise reduction
• increase in flight range by 960 kilometers
• increase in carrying capacity by 2000 kilograms

The airframe itself was also modernized: “sharklets” (shark fins) were installed at the tips of the wings, the air conditioning system was redesigned, and the luggage compartment was made larger.

According to manufacturers, thanks to the latest engines and unique wingtips (2.4 meters), maintenance and operating costs will be reduced by almost a quarter compared to the base model. Among the aircraft in its class, the Airbus A320neo has the lowest noise level.

Externally, the A320neo almost completely replicates the appearance of the A320 model. The difference was the widespread use of composites (glass and carbon fiber reinforced plastic) and aluminum alloys. This made the structure more durable, lightweight and ergonomic.

The aircraft has modern cockpit equipment. The company "Thomson - CSF" supplied a unique complex software. “Intellectual filling” displays data on LCD monitors and warns about emergency situations. All equipment is certified and meets the requirements of the ARINC 700 standard.

Changes to the interior

Improvements also affected the passenger compartment. The backlight is made using modern LEDs. The interior decoration will satisfy the most demanding taste.

The distance between the rows has increased, creating more space for the passenger. There are stands for gadgets (tablets, smartphones, laptops), sockets and USB connectors: two pieces for three rows of chairs. These changes affected both business class and economy class. Press and booklets are placed in pockets at the top of the chair. The kitchen areas have also become much larger, which is beneficial for flight attendants.

A distinctive feature and advantage of the new liner was the absence of toilets directly behind the last row. Now two bathrooms are equipped at the rear of the aircraft.

Overview of places (diagram)

IN Airbus cabin A320neo, the first two rows (8 seats) are reserved for business class. Arrangement: two chairs in two rows.

Economy class can accommodate 156 people. Single-aisle 3/3 seating system. Compared to the A320, there are six more seats.

The best rows are 3 (there are no seats in front), 10, 11 (seats near emergency exits). In the twenty-eighth row, the seat backs do not have the ability to recline.

Flight parameters of the A320neo model:

• Wingspan - 35.8 meters
• Machine length – 37.57 meters
• Aircraft height – 11.76 meters
• Take-off weight – 73900 kilograms
• Type of motors (2 pieces) - LEAP-1A
• Maximum thrust - 2 * 120.6 kgf
• Maximum speed – 876 km/h
• Soaring speed (cruising) – 833 km/h
• Flight range – 6500 kilometers
• Flight altitude (maximum ceiling) – 12,000 kilometers
• Crew – 2 pilots
• Payload (passenger capacity) – 189 people in economy class or up to 150 people in a two-class layout.

Last news:

In 2017, S7 Airlines (a brand of the Russian air carrier Sibir) acquired the first A320neo. A total of 16 copies are planned to be purchased. The car is painted in a traditional, bright green color companies. Passengers have already appreciated the level of comfort offered. It is noted that in the future these airbuses will form the basis of the S7 fleet. In the spring of 2018, S7 Airlines will begin direct service between Moscow and Spain resort island Tenerife. There will be flights from Domodedovo Airport twice a week.

The Russian holding company “Engineering” has modernized the painting hangar; it is here that the aircraft for the S7 fleet are painted. At the S7 Aviation Training Center “Engineering”, technical specialists are being trained to service A320neo airbuses. Contractual relations have been concluded to carry out heavy repairs at the sites of this technical holding.

Aviation conglomerate Airbus at its plant in China plans to increase the monthly number of A320 aircraft produced to five copies. At the beginning of 2020, this figure will increase to six. A corresponding bilateral agreement has already been signed.

Prospects and competition in the sky

Airbus plans to produce and sell more than 4,700 copies of its A320 aircraft to commercial customers over the next fifteen years. Back in 2011, it entered into an unprecedented contract with the Malaysian carrier AirAsia for the supply of two hundred aircraft.

The increased global demand for conquering regional distances laid the foundation for new developments by the world's leading aircraft manufacturers. Many commercial carriers are beginning to phase out wide-body airliners. The most popular are twin-engine airliners with a narrow fuselage. There is a widespread replacement of heavy, high-budget cars with more economical models.

The main competitors of the A320neo are the latest airliners for short and medium routes Boeing 737MAX, Bombardier CSeries, Comac C919 and MC-21. All models are extremely promising and comfortable.

Manufacturer Airbus aircraft has a huge number of orders for the delivery of the A320neo, as well as other aircraft of the family: A319, A320 and A321.

Analyzing the first years of operation of this aircraft and the speed at which applications were received, we can call this aircraft a leader in continental transportation.

Apparently this is true.
Judging by recent events, the airline from Siberia is setting itself very, very ambitious goals, aimed primarily at passenger comfort and cost reduction.
And we are not talking about reducing the list of services, but about... the latest aircraft models.
Surprisingly, one of the most technologically advanced aircraft today - the Airbus A320neo - was the first to appear in the S7 Airlines fleet, 3 more are in the pipeline until the end of this year, and for the next few years the airline has set the task of updating its entire A320 fleet to this model.

On Friday I visited Toulouse, at the Airbus plant where these aircraft are produced, just at the ceremony of handing over the first aircraft of the S7 airline. It was here that I was one of the first to get on board the beautiful A320neo, see what was new and innovative in it for passengers, and also communicate with the management of the airline and Airbus regarding further plans for cooperation.
Below is everything in detail, including a review of the new aircraft.

2. To be honest, I have never been present at the ceremony of handing over an aircraft into the hands of an airline before and thought little about how this happens.
In fact, this is not a car that you buy at a car dealership, where at the same time there are other buyers with you, for whom managers draw up documents or simply demonstrate this or that model. Airplanes are bought in a completely different way. And in a completely different way they hand over the “keys” to the helm. Especially when it is some kind of new product for the airline and the manufacturer.
An airplane is bought differently than a car: no one here sells ready-made airliners from a warehouse. The supply contract is signed in advance, and it usually includes not just one aircraft, but a specific batch. Then the customer determines the layout and many additional nuances, and only after that the plant begins assembling the aircraft directly for the customer. Then testing, acceptance (sometimes long and meticulous), and only after the handover ceremony... A lot of time passes between the moment the contract is signed and the moment the first aircraft is handed over, sometimes even several years!

3. S7 Airlines is not a new partner of Airbus; they have been cooperating for more than 13 years. And if earlier this cooperation was carried out within the framework of classic models, then on Friday a significant event took place for S7 - the transfer of the newest Airbus A320neo. Moreover, this is the first new generation A320 aircraft in Russia!
It was for this reason that it was not managers who came to the ceremony, but people from the top management of both companies: the plane was “handed over” by the Airbus vice president for Eastern Europe and Central Asia Andreas Kramer, and “received” by the Chairman of the Board of Directors of S7 Vladislav Filev

4. The ceremony was not delayed for long and after 10 official minutes, the curtains opened in the hall with giant panoramic windows and everyone present was presented with an Airbus A320neo still gleaming with fresh paint in the new S7 Airlines livery

5. It must be said that the ceremonial hall for the transfer of aircraft at the Airbus Delivery Center is something reminiscent of an amphitheater, allowing guests and journalists to admire the new aircraft from different angles - whether you want it from the front or in profile. Those who don’t want to go outside through the panoramic windows, and those who aren’t afraid of chilly weather can use a balcony or platform.
By the way, pay attention, in the background you can see several more shanks in liveries different airlines: these are the aircraft that will be handed over to customers in the coming days/

6. Now let's talk about the new product in detail, because this is the most important thing!
The A320neo is the successor to Airbus's most successful series, the A320. The neo program was launched in 2010, it is based on a deep remotorization of the 320 family (New Engine Option), the main task of which is to significantly improve the efficiency and ergonomics of aircraft. Technically, the A320neo is 95% unified with the A320, and the main changes concern engines, aerodynamics and passenger comfort. That is, A320 pilots do not need to retrain for a new type of aircraft. For the airline, these airliners become very profitable from an economic point of view, and for passengers - from the point of view of comfort (more on this below)

7. Let's start with the passengers!
First and most importantly, the cabin of the A320 family is currently the widest among narrow-body aircraft: it is 18 centimeters wider than its direct competitor - the Boeing 737 and 737Max, which allows you to install either wider seats or a wider aisle between the rows.
The A320neo's S7 cabin has a standard aisle width, and six leather seats in a row in a standard 3+3 configuration are 18 inches wide (each 1 inch wider than Boeing's).
The shape of the interior lining of the cabin has changed, which gives more shoulder room to passengers at the window.

8. The pitch between the seats remained the same as in the standard cabin of the A320 airline S7 - 71 cm.

9. There is enough legroom and a person of average height does not rest his knees on the chair in front of him.

10. Another significant innovation of the A320neo compared to the classic model is the increased volume of luggage racks. Now standard 10-kilogram suitcases fit here not only lying “on their back”, but also on their “side”, which allows you to fit 1 more suitcase in each section. For the increasingly popular system of baggage-free fares and trips with only one hand luggage this is a definite plus.

12. For my A320neo S7 I ordered a 156+8 layout, i.e. 156 economy class seats and 8 business class seats.
The business here is full-fledged, 2+2, with comfortable wide leather seats, and not like many European companies with standard economy class seats with a blocked middle one.

13. For business class seats, only the backrest can be adjusted, the lower cushion does not move, and there is no footrest.
But there are USB ports on each armrest and a full power outlet

14. Sasha alexcheban in its usual incarnation - in a business class seat.
I’m completely relaxed, I don’t fly economy)

15. Let's see what is offered for economy passengers. You'll be surprised, but... there are more chips for them than in business)
The most important thing is the new special stand-holder for smartphones and tablets.
It is hidden behind a folding table and is activated very simply: you need to fold the table, lift the trapezoidal plastic stand and then insert the gadget into one of three slots and secure it with a dynamic rubber lock on top.
Now it’s convenient to watch movies in the cabin of an airplane and you don’t need to invent it, as I recently did for nemihail

16. It's finished! Now planes more convenient for people will appear on Russian routes.
As in business class, in economy class each passenger is provided with a full power outlet and a USB connector for charging gadgets.
They are located more conveniently than in the old series, at the bottom of the chair in front of you, and not under yours (which led to the fact that many did not even know that they had an outlet under the chair)

17. Separately, it is worth mentioning the passenger’s personal panel under the ceiling.
Airbus has modernized them and these modules have become more convenient to manage and operate. New LED reading lamps are more economical and also have a longer lifespan. In addition, this light is more easily perceived by the human eye.

18. Kitchen and workspace for flight attendants

19. Toilet room.
By the way, Airbus engineers have developed a special catalytic neutralizer of unpleasant odors for toilets and for the cabin, which guarantees fresh air. In addition, the air conditioning system allows you to completely replace the air every 2 minutes and guarantees an even distribution of air inside the cabin.

20. Now let's look at the plane from the outside, because this is where the main differences between the A320neo and the classic A320 lie. It is easy to distinguish these two aircraft by their engine nacelles. The A320neo's engines are simply visually huge!
And it is in the engines, as well as the wing tips, that the main secret of the almost 20% reduction in fuel consumption of the new airliner lies!
The A320neo is offered with a choice of two types of highly fuel-efficient engines: Pratt & Whitney’s Pure Power PW1100G-JM (this is the engine the S7 aircraft are equipped with) or CFM International’s LEAP-1A.

21. The second feature of this type is the Sharklets wingtips. Airbus company began installing them on A319, A320 and A321 aircraft at the end of 2012, and for the A320neo family they are standard, and are also made of composite materials.
Sharklets improve the aircraft's aerodynamic performance and reduce drag by reducing stall, resulting in a 4% reduction in fuel consumption on long routes, equivalent to a 1,000 tonne per year reduction in CO2 emissions per aircraft.
In terms of fuel, sharklets increase the flight range by approximately 185 km or the payload by 450 kg.
By the way, the height of the sharklets is 2.4 meters!

22. Currently, the final assembly of the A320 family aircraft is carried out at four sites: Toulouse (France), Hamburg (Germany), Tianjin (China) and Mobile (USA). The A320neo is made only in Toulouse, where the A350 and A380 are also produced (pictured)

23. When everyone had taken plenty of photographs of the plane, there was some time for a photo shoot in front of the plane.

24.

25.

26. The first A320neo cabin crew for its maiden flight to Russia - SBI9988.
And the pilot that day was S7 flight director Mansur Badrakov (pictured No. 6)

27. This is the parting word from the factory Airbus first flight of a new plane...

28. July 21, 14.00, the plane starts the engines, and the pilots say goodbye to the accompanying journalists, S7 management and Airbus representatives

29. Everyone gathered on the balcony

30. The brake shoes are removed, the tractor rolls the plane onto the taxiway

31. The dispatcher gives permission to taxi

32. By the way, pay attention to the green fuselage in the far part of the frame, this is the next A320neo for S7, which will be transferred very soon

33. At the moment when we take the plane off the airfield, Marina photografersha Took this photo from a Lufthansa A320 taking off en route to Munich.

34. Breakaway! A little over three hours later, the new plane landed at Domodedovo airport, where it went through customs clearance and the very next day it was on the Moscow-Novosibirsk line

35. If you want to be one of the first to experience the smell and comfort of a new aircraft, look for it on flights to Novosibirsk.
Representatives of S7 promise to put a note that it is the A320neo that is flying on this or that flight in the very near future.

36. On my own behalf, I would like to wish the airline the speedy implementation of its ambitious plans to renew its aircraft fleet. This will only make things better for us passengers.

The Russian airline S7 Airlines (Siberia) received Russia's first narrow-body aircraft of the new generation Airbus A320neo, the website reports. The handover ceremony took place on July 21 at the European manufacturer’s plant in Toulouse (France).

The aircraft was provided by the Chinese leasing company BOC Aviation. The aircraft is equipped with PW1127G-JM dual-circuit turbofan engines with a geared fan drive manufactured by the American Pratt & Whitney. The car's interior has a two-class layout with 164 seats - 156 in economy class and 8 in business class.

The cabin of the first A320neo of S7 Airlines is equipped with 164 seats in two classes. The interior design was developed by PriestmanGoode, which based its decisions on the updated corporate style of S7 Airlines - “light and modern.”
