Airbus may make engines

FRANKFURT:

Airbus may make its own engines for its hydrogen-fueled planes, Chief Executive Officer Guillaume Faury told a German newspaper in an interview published on Saturday. The planemaker has said it plans to develop the world’s first zero-emission, hydrogen-fuelled commercial aircraft by 2035. Faury told the Welt am Sonntag newspaper that he could imagine equipping those aircraft with electric motors produced in-house. “That is something we could basically do ourselves,” Faury was quoted as saying, speaking of a possible “change of strategy”.
