"It's incredible to see just how much air travel has
changed since I took my first flight back in 1977," said
Tinseth. "It has become critical to business and
something we do for pleasure, to connect with family and
friends. As the market continues to grow, especially in
emerging economies, air travel will become affordable to
even more people."
Freighter Fleet Forecast: 2012 to 2031 - As the cargo
market remains sluggish, Boeing has revised downward its
projection for freighters over the next 20 years. Still,
the world freighter fleet is projected to nearly double
from 1,740 aircraft today to 3,200 at the end of the
forecast period.
Additions to the fleet will include 940 new-production
freighters (market value of $250 billion) and 1,820
airplanes converted from passenger models. Large (more
than 88.2 tons capacity / 80 tons) freighters will
account for 680 new-build airplanes. Medium (44.1 to
88.2 tons / 40 to 80 tons) freighters will total 260
airplanes. No new standard-body freighters (49.6 tons /
less than 45 tons) will be required, but there will be
1,120 standard-body conversions.
