United Ordered 45 A350s… Then Walked Away

Earlier this year, United Airlines signaled the removal of the Airbus A350-900 aircraft type from its order book. As per the SEC or Securities and Exchange Commission 10-K filing, this decision was made on the basis that the engine manufacturer for the aircraft type had breached a contract. So in this video, we take a look at how a contract dispute between United Airlines and Rolls-Royce has placed one of the airline industry’s longest-running aircraft orders in doubt, why a $175 million payment is now at the center of a legal battle, and how the future of 45 Airbus A350s suddenly became uncertain.

The Most Powerful Rolls-Royce Engine Ever

The Airbus A380 superjumbo is the world's only full double-deck commercial jet and has a maximum takeoff weight or MTOW far exceeding any other aircraft in existence. It is optionally powered by four Rolls-Royce Trent 900 engines or four Engine Alliance GP7200 engines (built by a joint venture between GE Aerospace and Pratt & Whitney). So in this video, we take a look at the Rolls-Royce Trent 900, why it became one of the most powerful commercial jet engines ever produced, how it helped shape the Airbus A380, and how Rolls-Royce is now working on an even more ambitious engine family that could transform both widebody and narrowbody aviation in the decades ahead.
