Imagine you are a consultant to an Lufthansa a significant number of aircraft in service as well as still to be delivered.
The Covid-19 pandemic has wreaked havoc throughout the airline industry. Passenger traffic has effectively ground to a halt and is recovering at a slow pace.
Your task is to formulate a plan for managing the fleet. The options being considered should include but not necessarily restricted to; short/long term storage, early return of leased aircraft, sale of older aircraft, deferrals/cancellations of new deliveries. The airline will want the flexibility to return some aircraft into service as soon as practically possible.
Your brief is as follows:
• Determine which aircraft types are to be stored and for how long.
• Review the opportunities and challenges for configuration modifications, Covid-19 related and/or otherwise, to stored aircraft before reactivation
• Analyse each option with particular reference to implications on maintenance.
• Based on your findings and research, come up with a suggestion as to which
options the airline should pursue.
• Make sure you critically argue your case and thoroughly research the background.
