Crossover Narrowbody Jets

For crossover narrowbody jet manufacturers, the challenge is to convince carriers there is a need for their aircraft, both operationally and financially.

Much is made in the industry of delivering “integrated powerplants” rather than simply engines.

Easier access to many airports, including those with short runways, steep approaches or noise and emissions restrictions, are a major benefit of crossover narrowbody jets.

Regional jet manufacturers are working to make aircraft cabins more efficient for airlines and more appealing to their passengers.
