Does Rail Industry Embrace Aircraft Industry...!

The rail industry is not for away in hitting the aircraft speed and expected to give a tough competition specially to single-aisle aircraft industry. As we know there is huge demand for single-aisle aircrafts (80–180-seater capacity). Out of 38050 total requirements nearly 27000 single-aisle aircrafts are required from now and 2034. Aviation industry currently represents 2 percent of total manmade CO2 emissions, 80 percent of which is from flights over 1500 km for which there was no practical alternative.

Roughly ten percent of all types of aircraft emissions, except hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide, are produced during ground-level and LTO (landing and takeoff) cycle operations. LTO operations have a significant contribution to an airport’s GHG (Greenhouse Gas) emission which is quite harmful to the population living surrounding airport regions.

This has become major problem in many developed countries — even large ones. It is not so easy politically, as well as physically, to find the space for new runways at airports that historically have been sited relatively close to busy cities, with the entire infrastructure close by, serving not only passengers and freight operators but also the thousands of people who actually work at and supply the day-to-day needs of those…
