Sep 13, 2007 Airbus European planemaker Airbus Tom Enders re-appointed his number two with broad control of operations on Wednesday, but it remained unclear whether the move had defused another potential row over top management jobs. Airbus has been unsettled by fears that Chief Operating Officer Chief Operating Officer (COO) The officer of a firm responsible for day-to-day management, usually the president or an executive vice-president. Fabrice Bregier might quit following attempts by Enders to unseat him from the powerful executive committee at parent EADS, according to industry sources who asked not to be named. Enders, who took over Airbus after French and German leaders stepped in to reorganize EADS and end chronic in-fighting in July, proposed he should be the sole representative of Airbus on the EADS executive committee under the simpler new structure. Sep 13, 2007 Airbus The new Airbus executive team will comprise nine instead of the previous 12 members, the planemaker said. Also confirmed in their jobs are top salesman John Leahy John Leahy (born August 1950) was appointed Chief Operating Officer at Airbus in July 2005. Leahy continues as Airbus' Chief Commercial Officer, a role he has held since August 1994. He is a member of the Airbus main board of management. , and Tom Williams Tom Williams can refer to:

Airbus chief Tom Enders' management team in place, Airbus will be under pressure to push forward negotiations with French and German unions over 10,000 job cuts in its Power8 restructuring plans. It also aims to choose buyers by October for five of the six factories it has put up for sale in a further effort to cut costs and share the burden of investing in composite materials. Sep 13, 2007 Airbus Airbus will outsource 53 percent of is upcoming A350 aerostructure. A source familiar with its strategy said it hoped factory sales would create a new tier of European suppliers with sales of between EUR1 billion and EUR1.5 billion and capable of supporting new investments. But critics say it was Airbus's relentless pressure on its suppliers that damaged the very firms it is now asking for help. Sep 10, 2007 Airbus Completing the trio of big decisions, Airbus aims to choose buyers by October for five of the six factories it has put up for sale. They will continue to work for Airbus as it boosts production. The sale of a sixth at Laupheim, Germany, has not started and of the five plants already on sale, three require heavy investment in new composite technology for Airbus's next model, the A350. In return buyers will get a "risk-sharing" stake in the plane. Latecoere and OHB's MT Aerospace are bidding for Meaulte in France and Nordenham in Germany respectively, but both need a capital boost to take part. In Britain, GKN GKN Guest, Keen & Nettlefolds (British global engineering company) GKN Global Knowledge Network GKN Gemeenschappelijke Kernenergiecentrale Nederland GKN Global Korean Network GKN Iks Gorkon (Star Trek novel Series) wants the third A350 plant at Filton in western England. In a surprise move in Germany, family engineering firm Voith emerged last month as a challenger for Nordenham and sister plant Varel on condition it can add Augsburg to the list.

Sep 10, 2007 Airbus European planemaker Airbus faces a triple decision over factories, jobs and management in coming weeks that could determine the success of its efforts to hit back at rival Boeing and attract outside investment. First up are management announcements expected this week from new chief executive Tom Enders, with the aerospace industry waiting to see whether number two Fabrice Bregier will stay following another dispute over senior jobs at Airbus' parent EADS. Sep 10, 2007 Airbus With Airbus's chief executive Tom Enders' management team in place, Airbus will be under pressure to push forward negotiations with French and German unions over 10,000 job cuts in its Power8 restructuring plans. A French newspaper reported recently the job cuts may be scaled back. Airbus says cost cuts are needed to counter a weak dollar and stay competitive against a resurgent Boeing. Highlighting pressure to reform, France said on Monday Airbus's A400M military plane would be delayed by some months. Sep 10, 2007 Airbus, EADS Backed by Airbus parent EADS chief executive Louis Gallois Louis Gallois (born January 26, 1944) is a French businessman and currently the CEO of EADS, and CEO of Airbus. Louis René Fernand Gallois was born in Montauban where he obtains the degree of Baccaulaureat in 1961 followed of the graduate of Business School HEC in , Bregier insisted on keeping the committee post he had held since running EADS helicopter unit Eurocopter and called for a clear division of his and Enders' roles, the industry sources said. An Airbus statement set out broad responsibilities for Bregier effectively handing him control of the planemaker's operations including its next major project, the A350, regarded as crucial for Airbus's future rivalry with Boeing. But it left a question mark over whether it had been decided to leave Bregier in place on the EADS executive committee. Sep 13, 2007 Airbus, EADS German Chancellor Angela Merkel Angela Dorothea Merkel (IPA: [ˈaŋɡela doʁoˈteːa ˈmɛɐ̯kəl]) (b. will host a meeting of EADS shareholders on Sept. 18 to discuss Airbus's Power8 restructuring program, a German government spokesperson told media. DaimlerChrysler, which owns a 15% stake in EADS, will be a key player at the meeting, which is expected to focus on Airbus's German plants at Nordenham, Laupheim, and Varel and EADS' plant in Augsburg, all sites that EADS/Airbus is considering selling outright or turning over in part to investors. The fate of those sites has been a contentious political issue in Germany, where concerns have been expressed about possible job cuts and foreign ownership. Sep 11, 2007 Airbus, EADS Airbus's Fabrice Bregier, who spearheads a restructuring seen as crucial to Airbus's recovery from losses and currency problems, is seen at odds with Enders over places on the EADS executive committee. Chief executive Tom Enders has made a move to represent Airbus alone on the panel, where Bregier sits as a former chief of sister company Eurocopter and a top figure at Airbus, industry sources said. But Bregier sees the post as a pre-requisite for staying and wants a clear division of roles, industry sources added. Talks continue but Enders may prefer to avoid further disruption as Airbus recovers from delays to its A380 superjumbo. Bregier is backed by EADS Chief Executive Louis Gallois, sources said. Airbus officials declined to comment.

Scandinavian Airlines, Bombardier SAS Scandinavian Airlines' Finnish unit Blue1 said a domestic flight from Helsinki to Kuopio in eastern Finland turned back on Friday after problems with the hatch of the landing gear. The incident followed two crash-landings this week involving the landing gear of SAS Bombardier DHC-8-Q400 aircraft. The Nordic carrier has grounded its fleet of the Canadian-made planes, which make up 10 percent of its aircraft. Blue1 said Friday's incident involved a different type of plane -- an Avro regional jet. "There was no danger for the 17 passengers and 4 crew on the board," Blue1 spokesman Tom Christides said.

Another SAS DHC-8-Q400 crash-landed in Denmark on Sunday in a similar incident. Sep 14, 2007 Bombardier, SAS Scandinavian Airlines Details of September 12's incident are still emerging, but SAS Scandinavian Airlines has revealed that one of its Bombardier DHC-8-Q400 aircraft, operating as flight SK2748 from Copenhagen to Palanga in Lithuania, "experienced technical difficulties and the crew decided to divert to Vilnius." On landing, "the right main landing gear collapsed." All 48 passengers and four crew were evacuated, but no injuries have been reported. Monday's incident followed the crew of flight SK1209 operating from Copenhagen to Aalborg, also experiencing a problem with the main landing gear and making an emergency landing. Five out of 69 passengers were what SAS describes as "lightly injured." Transport Canada Transport Canada is the department within the government of Canada which is responsible for developing regulations, policies and services of transportation in Canada. History and the Danish Accident Investigation Board are examining the incidents, while a Bombardier Air Safety representative has been sent to the second site to provide help to the authorities. Bombardier has declined to speculate on the nature of the incidents. A spokeswoman for SAS in Stockholm said that further details were expected this afternoon. Sep 12, 2007 Bombardier, SAS Scandinavian Airlines SAS Scandinavian Airlines is reeling after two successive incidents in three days that have seen the carrier ground its entire Bombardier DHC-8-Q400 Dash 8 fleet. This morning's, September 12, accident at 01:36, that saw a Q400 divert to Vilnius in Lithuania, comes hard on the heels of Monday's incident that saw another SAS DHC-8 make an emergency landing at Aalborg in Denmark and its right main landing gear collapse. The Canadian manufacturer is urging all DHC-8-Q400 operators - whose aircraft have 10,000 landing cycles or more - be grounded until routine inspection is carried out, while SAS (23 DHC-8s) and partner carrier, Wideroe (four DHC-8s), have stopped all operations of the type.

Its balance sheet is currently split between EUR259.4 million in equity belonging to shareholders and an equal amount of debt, giving it a higher than average gearing of 100 percent.Latecoere's net profit fell 20 percent in the first half partially under the weight of increased debt charges. Its offer assumes the Airbus plants will come with neither debt nor cash. Latecoere said it expected the factory auction to be completed at the end of this year or early next. Sep 13, 2007 Latecoere Aerospace firm Latecoere will seek fresh equity investment worth around EUR300 million if it succeeds in the bid, which it says will propel it into the top rank of Airbus suppliers and forge a "national champion" in one of France's prized sectors. The 90-year-old firm once built boatplanes and pioneered air-mail. Its name is synonymous in France with aviation history. Latecoere Chief Executive Francois Bertrand said the company was in talks with potential investors including state bank Caisse des Depots to take up a reserved part of the share offer which he declined to quantify. Sep 13, 2007 Latecoere French aerospace firm Latecoere announced plans to double its equity capital to help buy Airbus factories in France, and said a French state bank could inject part of the EUR300 million euros (USD USD In currencies, this is the abbreviation for the U.S. Dollar. Notes: The currency market, also known as the Foreign Exchange market, is the largest financial market in the world, with a daily average volume of over US $1 trillion. $417 million) it hopes to raise. Latecoere is competing with Spirit Aerosystems of the United States, a company more than 18 times its size, to buy Airbus factories at Meaulte and St Nazaire-Ville in France as the planemaker sheds both factories and jobs to cut costs. Spirit is also competing for plants in Germany and Britain. Sources close to the auction have said the government would prefer to keep the 1,300 jobs at the French plants under French control. But doubts have been raised over Latecoere's ability to finance the deal without a significant cash boost. Its expansion mirrors efforts by German firms such as OHB's MT Aerospace and privately owned Voith to create a national supplier of parts and structures to Airbus, a unit of EADS whose activities are dotted across four countries.
