Bombardier – Bombardier is one of the biggest manufacturers of transport in the world. They have got factories throughout the world such as Canada, Northern Ireland and America. Bombardier have been through a long journey s a company to the place they are today. It all started in Canada when a young Joseph – Armond Bombardier manufactured a snowmobile to help people travel in the snow. When he passed away in the 60’s the company was taken over and focused on transport such as planes and in 1986 they took over Canadair and made it profitable once again. They then went on to take over the Shorts Brothers dying manufacturing company in Belfast, Northern Ireland. They also took over other companies that were struggling and turned them around. …show more content…
Shorts – The shorts brothers made a aerospace company that is based in Belfast. They founded it in 1808. The brothers were friends with the Wright brothers and they made the flying boat in the 1950’s. When the war came about shorts was expanding as they built variety of aircrafts. They where among the manufacturers of the two flying boats. In 1989 shorts was bought by Bombardier, this is now the largest manufacturing company in Northern Ireland. They make components of the plane such as engine nacelles and the aircraft flight control systems for both bombarder and Boeing. The aerospace division now accounts for over half of the company's revenue.
Bombardier's most popular aircraft currently include its Dash 8 Series 400, CRJ100/200/440, and CRJ700/900/1000 lines of regional airliners. It also manufactures the Bombardier 415 amphibious water-bomber, the Global Express and the Challenger business jet.
Now Bombardier are the worlds leading manufacturer of planes and trains. They are making products from business class jets to commercial airlines and high speed trains. throughout the world they employ 74,000 people. They employ around 6,000 in Belfast alone. In Belfast they specialise major aircraft structures including fuselages, wings, engine nacelle systems and flight control surfaces. The Belfast operation is vital in Bombardier as it produces 10% of all Northern Irelands manufacturing exports.
Bombardier Belfast do many things within the chain of manufacturing a plane and for all different models.

Challenger - Design and manufacture of the centre fuselage for the Challenger 300 and Challenger 350 business jets, the centre fuselage and nacelles for the Challenger 605 business jet, and the fuselage panels, engine nacelles and wing components for the Challenger 850 corporate jet. Global - Design and manufacture of the forward fuselage, engine nacelles, horizontal stabiliser, tailcone, wing to fuselage fairings, wing slats and other components for the Global 5000 and Global 6000 business jets, and the composite horizontal stabiliser and other components for the Global 7000 and Global 8000 business jets. This is a Global 6000 business jet Fuselages – The fuselage of the plane is the main section which holds the crew, passengers and cargo. With a single-engine plane it will contain an engine. The fuselage also serves to position control and stabilisation surfaces in special relationships to lifting surfaces, this is required for aircraft stability and manoeuvrability. The fuselages can be made from all different shells one of these is the semi-monocoque shell. These are they the preferred method of constructing an all aluminium fuselage. To manufacture these, a series of frames in the shape of the fuselage cross sections are held on a rigid fixture. They are then joined by lightweight longitudinal elements called stringers. These are then covered in a skin of aluminium and that is attached by riveting. The fuselage is then completed with being fitted out with wiring, controls and the interior equipment such as seats and luggage holders. Modern large aircrafts are manufactured using this method. To build the fuselages it started by using wooden structures to make the fuselages but then they started to use metal. The metal structure was stronger and this led to an all metallic aircraft. Modern aircrafts are constructed with composite materials to make the fuselages. They did this because they could get a higher pressurisation level and larger windows to increase the passengers comfort. Bombardier are making the C-Series with composite materials so they can have larger windows and the new planes will have a large, rotating overhead storage bins which allows each passenger to have a sizeable hand luggage bag in the overhead. The fuselage also contains wider aisles so that it is easier for passengers to board the plane. Wings and their components A fixed aircraft wing is an aircraft that is capable of flight. It uses the wings to create lift which is caused by forward airspeed and the wing shape. The wing is one of most important parts of the plane as it makes it fly and also allows the plane to turn. The flaps on the wings decrease and increase the amount of drag. When the flaps are down the plane will slow down but when the flaps are up the plane is able to speed up. Bombardier try to make the designs of the wings better every time. The modern designs are using composite materials to make the wings lighter and stronger. With the advanced composite material on the new C-Series they have saved more than 2,000 in weight. The wings frame is made up of three different components the rear spar, the main spar and the ribs. The ribs are are from aluminium, which is corrosion resistant and have great strength which allows them to deal with extreme wind pressure, they have got holes into them ribs so cables and fuel tubes can be put in them and go through the full wingand they are in-between the rear spar and the main spar and hold them together. The main spar is the full length of the wing. The skeleton of the wing is put onto a rack and it is covered with an aluminium cover called the wing skin, the rear spar is cover by the leading edge wing nose. There is a wing fuel tank that is made and then placed into the wing chamber and is covered by a covering plate. The tip is then placed onto the end of the wing and this is made from fibre glass which is light weight and very strong. The wing is finally placed onto the main fuselage of the plane. The C-Series wing – The wings on the C-Series are Wet wings. This is when the structure of the wing is used as the fuel tank. They take away the need for fuel bladders and the aircraft will weigh less and the wing root bending moment is reduced a lot. This also allows their to be more weight lost as structural components can be designed much lighter. This differs from a normal dry wing because it has a fuel tank and this is where the fuel goes instead of in the wings structure. This makes the plane a lot lighter as a fuel tank does not need to be built it also is positive because you can fit more fuel into the tank. Engine nacelles – This is the place that holds the engine.
They are placed on the wing away from the main body of the plane they are also ahead of the wing to reduce the strain upon the wing and being below the wing creates less drag and not as much noise for the passengers. A positive of this is that if a problem arises and one of the engines go on fire it is far away from the main body and wont affect of the plane. It is aerodynamically shaped. It includes the structure commonly referred to as engine cowling and also has other components such as the inlet cowl, fan cowl, thrust reverser, core cowl and exhaust. The cowling is used to redirect drag and helps the plane be as aerodynamic as possible. They are generally made out of aluminium but bombardier use carbon fibre to build them because it is easier to stretch and it is stronger than
aluminium.

The Boeing Corporation is one of the largest manufacturers in the world. Rivaled only by European giant Airbus in the aerospace industry, Boeing is a leader in research, design and manufacture of commercial jet airliners, for commercial, industrial and military customers. Despite enjoying immense success in its market and dominating an industry that solely recognizes engineering excellence, it is crucial for Boeing to ensure continued growth through consistent strategy formulation and execution to avoid falling behind in market share to close and coming rivals.
With regard to product, JetBlue is cornering the marketplace with its productivity, in-flight features, and customer service. Due to the fact that the company only purchases new planes of a single type, maintenance downtime is reduced and it is able to keep its planes in the air. In fact, JetBlue maintains the highest in-air average in the industry. Additionally, JetBlue employs an "operational recovery tool" technology that allows planners to minimize flight cancellations and delays. On board, JetBlue prides itself on treating all customers as equals and providing more comfort than other airlines.
Boeing has looked at everything from the design of the anti-collision lights, to the reduction of small gaps in the airfoil. This has created an aircraft that is extremely aerodynamic and efficient at any task it performs. The 737 was originally created on May 11, 1964, however it wasn’t until November 9, 1964 that production was officially approved. On February 19th 1965 Lufthansa placed its first order for the 737-100, and on the 9th of April 1967 the 737 flew for the first time. In 1970, Boeing had less than 35 orders for the 737 and considered canceling the program.
Over the last 50 years, The Boeing Company has shown itself to be an industry leader in the fields of technology and putting their vast physical assets to use. Boeing has been at the forefront of innovation in both commercial aviation, and airplanes used for defense purposes. Whether it was the introduction of the first modern airplane with dual engines when the Boeing 247 was unveiled or introducing new standards of efficiency into their business model, Boeing seems to have always been one step above the competitors. So while Boeing was hurting their competitors on one end, they decided to go and become more efficient on the other end. So not only were they the leader in technological innovation, they improved the productivity of their largest business unit all while decreasing the amount of space they used.
