Recorded live after the show as the big commercial aviation players called a wrap to the 2025 Paris Air Show, the 40,000 Feet podcast from The Up Front rounds up orders from Airbus, Embraer — and some surprising news from turboprop manufacturer ATR.
With an extra-length extended edition for Pros, John Walton and Gareth Edwards dive deep into:
- The implications of A350 orders from Starlux and Egyptair
- Embraer’s big E-Jet repeat order from SkyWest, and why there’s a Napoleon connection with Airlink’s ten leased E195-E2s
- All-business class turboprops are a theme, from Tahiti to (possibly) Tahoe
- and for Pros, we dive back inside the Boeing 777X mockup to discuss what’s changed from the mockup Boeing brought to AIX, plus why both Boeing and Airbus need to get thinking about flagship cabins on their flagship planes. Get access to the Pro edition here
