5 years is pretty sort. Looking at A220, which I think took closer to 10 years. Which I think is realistic timeline for new modern design, not just modernising old one. A350 and 777X also show similar timelines... That is from planning to deliveries. And these are the players with experience building to specific segment of market...
Throw in enough novel ideas and it might double...
- hef19898 3y agoEasily. And aerospace began to move fast again since the A380, B777, B787, A350 and such. The decades before were a lot slower. At least now ypu don't have to mix people pulled back from retirement with new grads to get a team that has the collective experience of a programm start to finish anymore.
