Feb. 10, 2025, \u00a9 Leeham News: <\/strong>There will be a surge in aircraft replacement requirements as today\u2019s Airbus A320neos and Boeing 737 MAXes age. Simultaneously, the seating capacity of aircraft is increasing, says Michel Merluzeau, the Head of Sales Engineering and Market Development for the start-up company JetZero.<\/p>\n

JetZero is developing the first commercial blended wing body (BWB) aircraft, a 250-plus seat design with a goal of reducing fuel consumption by 50% over the remaining Boeing 767s and Airbus A330ceos still in operation.<\/p>\n

Merluzeau joined JetZero last year after decades as a consultant in commercial and defense aerospace sectors. He spoke last week to the annual conference of the Pacific Northwest Aerospace Alliance in a Seattle suburb.<\/p>\n

The replacement forecast and the up-gauging will open a replacement market for at least 7,000 aircraft, Merluzeau said, for which JetZero\u2019s Z4 concept is designed.<\/p>\n
