La prossima guerra tra Boeing e Airbus è già iniziata

For seventy years, building a new airplane has followed a reliable formula. Identify the market gap, spend the money, deliver something better, and let decades of orders pay for it all. Boeing did it with the 707. Airbus did it with the A320. The cycle has never stopped—until now. Today, the two companies that dominate the skies are facing the same impossible problem at the same impossible time. The airplanes everyone uses have reached a wall they can't climb. The engines needed to replace them don't yet exist. One manufacturer is buried in debt, the other is moving with extreme caution, and every airline on Earth is waiting for a decision neither can afford to get wrong. What looks like hesitation may actually be a trap that's been closing for twenty years. This is the story of the most expensive decision in aviation history—the gamble that will decide which company will dominate the skies for the next fifty years, and why an industry that can barely build the planes it has already sold is forced to gamble it all again.
