I-Air Canada iqinisekisile i-odolo ye-15 ngaphezulu kwe-A220-300, izise i-Canadian carrier carrier's total firm order from the first 45 to 60 aircraft. Inkampani yeenqwelomoya iqale inkonzo yayo ye-A220 ngoJanuwari ka-2020 kwaye ngoku isebenza ngaphezulu kwe-30 A220 kwiindlela ezinqumla kwilizwekazi laseCanada, kunye nase-US nakwiLatin America.
“I-A220 iye yaba yinxalenye ebalulekileyo kuhlaziyo lweenqwelomoya zase-Air Canada kunye nenxalenye ephambili yenqanawa yethu emxinwa, ngenxa yokusebenza kwayo kunye nokuthuthuzela abakhweli. Abathengi bethu bayonwabela ngokwenene izibonelelo ze-A220, ukusuka kwikhabhathi yayo ezolileyo, imigqomo emikhulu engaphezulu kunye nezihlalo ezitofotofo. I-A220 yeyona nqwelo-moya ifanelekileyo kuthungelwano lwethu lwaseMntla Merika ngenxa yezoqoqosho, kwaye ukusebenza kwayo kakuhle kwamafutha kukwaxhasa ukuzibophelela kwe-Air Canada ekunciphiseni ukukhutshwa kwezinto ezikhutshwayo kwindlela eya kwiinjongo zayo zokukhupha i-zero kuyo yonke imisebenzi yehlabathi ngo-2050,” utshilo uMark Galardo. USekela Mongameli oPhezulu, uCwangciso lweNethiwekhi kunye noLawulo lweNgeniso kwi-Air Canada.
“Siwongekile ukuba i-Air Canada ibuyela kwii-A220 ezingaphezulu. Oku kubonisa ixabiso lenqwelomoya elizisayo kwaye siyaziqhenya ukubonelela umthengi wethu ngezinga eliphezulu lokuguquguquka, uqoqosho olukhulu kunye nesibheno sokwenyani somgibeli, "kusho uChristian Scherer, iGosa eliyiNtloko lezoRhwebo kunye neNtloko yeZizwe ngezizwe. “Ngeenqwelomoya esele zingaphezulu kwama-30 ezikwinkonzo yenqwelomoya, i-A220 izimise njengendawo yokuvula indlela esebenzayo, kunye neyona ndlela iphambili yokusebenzela, yomeleza uthungelwano lwelizwekazi labathwali ngelixa inikezela ngeethagethi ze-Air Canada ze-decarbonization.

Izalwe kuyilo lwephepha elicocekileyo, i-A220 kuphela kwenjongo yenqwelo-moya eyakhelwe ukuthengisa izitulo ze-100-150, izisa kunye iimpawu zoyilo oluyilayo, i-aerodynamics yanamhlanje kunye neenjini ze-GTF™ zesizukulwana samva nje sikaPratt & Whitney.
Ukunikezela ngeepesenti ezingama-25 ezisezantsi zokutshiswa kwamafutha kunye nokukhutshwa kwe-CO2 kwisitulo ngasinye xa kuthelekiswa neenqwelomoya zesizukulwana sangaphambili, ukongeza malunga neepesenti ezingama-50 ezisezantsi zokukhutshwa kwe-NOx kunemigangatho yoshishino, i-A220 yeyona nqwelomoya i-eco-efficient kudidi lwayo. Ngeepesenti ezingama-20 ngaphezulu kwendawo yokubeka umkhweli ngamnye, izihlalo ezibanzi kunye neefestile ezinkulu kwiklasi yayo, i-A220 ikwabonelela ngentuthuzelo engenakuthelekiswa nanto kubahambi.
Ukuza kuthi ga ngoku, zingaphezulu kwama-220 ii-A220 ezithunyelwe kwiinqwelomoya ezili-16 ezisebenza kumazwekazi amane kwaye zidibanisa abantu abangaphezu kwezigidi ezingama-70 kwihlabathi liphela. Inqanawa ngoku ibhabha kwiindlela ezingaphezu kwama-800 kunye neendawo ezingama-325 kwihlabathi liphela, oko kuyenza ibe lukhetho oluqinisekisiweyo lweenqwelomoya ukudibanisa abakhweli ngokufanelekileyo kwiindlela zengingqi kunye nemigama emide.
