Oku kuye kwatshintsha ubomi babo ngonaphakade, kwaye thina kwi-Ethiopian Airlines siya kuva intlungu ngonaphakade. Ndithandazela ukuba sonke siqhubeke sifumana amandla kwiiveki nakwiinyanga ezizayo.

Ukanti le ntlekele ayizukusichaza. Siyathembisa ukusebenzisana noBoeing kunye noogxa bethu kuzo zonke iinqwelomoya ukwenza uhambo lomoya lukhuseleke nangakumbi.
Njengelona qela likhulu lezophapho kwilizwekazi laseAfrika, simela iThe New Spirit of Africa kwaye siza kuqhubeka nokuqhubela phambili. Silinganiswe njengenqwelomoya ye-4 yeenkwenkwezi zehlabathi kunye nerekhodi eliphezulu lokhuseleko kunye nelungu le-Star Alliance. Ayizukutshintsha loo nto.
Intsebenziswano epheleleyo
Uphando lwale ngozi luqhuba kakuhle, kwaye siyakufunda inyani. Ngeli xesha, andifuni kuqikelela unobangela. Imibuzo emininzi kwinqwelomoya ye-B-737 MAX ihleli ingenazimpendulo, kwaye ndiyathembisa ngentsebenziswano epheleleyo neselubala ukufumanisa ukuba yintoni eyonakeleyo.
Njengoko kuyaziwa kwishishini lethu leenqwelomoya zehlabathi, umahluko woqeqesho phakathi kwe-B-737 NG kunye ne-B-737 MAX ecetyisiweyo yi-Boeing kwaye ivunywe yi-US Federal Aviation Administration yabiza uqeqesho olusekwe kwikhompyuter, kodwa sadlulela ngaphaya koko. Emva kwengozi ye-Lion Air ngo-Okthobha, abaqhubi bethu ababhabha i-Boeing 737 Max 8 baqeqeshwe ngokupheleleyo kwibhulethini yenkonzo ekhutshwe yi-Boeing kunye ne-Emergency Airworthiness Directive ekhutshwe yi-USA FAA. Phakathi kweziXhobo zeFlight eziPheleleyo ezisixhenxe esiziphetheyo nezisebenzayo, ezimbini zazo zeze-B-737 NG kunye ne-B-737 MAX. Sithi kuphela inqwelo moya e-Afrika phakathi kwabambalwa kakhulu emhlabeni abane-B-737 MAX epheleleyo yokubhabha yokulinganisa. Ngokuchaseneyo nezinye iingxelo zeendaba, abaqhubi bethu abahamba ngenqwelomoya entsha baqeqeshelwe kuzo zonke izilingisi ezifanelekileyo.
Abasebenzi babeqeqeshwe kakuhle kule nqwelo-moya.
Ngokukhawuleza emva kwengozi kwaye ngenxa yokufana neNgozi yoMoya weNgonyama, samisa iinqanawa zethu zeMax 8s. Kwiintsuku nje ezimbalwa, inqwelomoya yayimisiwe emhlabeni jikelele. Ndiyixhasa ngokupheleleyo le nto. De sibe neempendulo, ukubeka ubomi obunye emngciphekweni kuninzi kakhulu.
Ukukholelwa kwi-Boeing, i-US Aviation
Mandicace: I-Ethiopian Airlines ikholelwa kwi-Boeing. Baye baba liqabane lethu iminyaka emininzi. Ngaphezu kwesibini kwisithathu seenqwelomoya zethu yiBoeing. Sasiyinkampani yeenqwelomoya yokuqala yase-Afrika ukubhabha i-767, 757, 777-200LR, kwaye sasisizwe sesibini kwihlabathi (emva kweJapan) ukuthatha ukuhanjiswa kwe-787 Dreamliner. Ngaphantsi kwenyanga edlulileyo, siye sazisa ezinye iinqwelomoya ezimbini ze-737 ezintsha (uhlobo olwahlukileyo kuleyo yantlithekayo). Inqwelomoya eyantlithekayo yayingaphantsi kweenyanga ezintlanu ubudala.
Ngaphandle kwentlekele, i-Boeing kunye ne-Ethiopian Airlines iya kuqhubeka nokudityaniswa kakuhle kwixesha elizayo.
Siyazingca ngobudlelwane bethu neenqwelomoya zase-US. Uluntu ngokubanzi aluyazi ukuba i-Ethiopian Airlines yasekwa ngo-1945 ngoncedo oluvela kwi-Trans World Airlines (TWA). Kwiminyaka yokuqala, abaqhubi bethu beenqwelo-moya, abasebenzi beenqwelo-moya, oomatshini kunye nabaphathi ngokwenene babengabasebenzi be-TWA.
Kwiminyaka yoo-1960, emva kokunikezelwa, i-TWA yaqhubeka ikwisikhundla sokucebisa, kwaye siye saqhubeka sisebenzisa iijethi zaseMelika, iinjini zejethi zaseMelika kunye nobuchwepheshe baseMelika. Oomatshini bethu boLawulo lwezoPhapho lwe-Federal (FAA) baqinisekisiweyo.
Inkonzo yethu yokuqala yabakhweli abathe ngqo ukuya e-US yaqala ngoJuni ka-1998, kwaye namhlanje sibhabha sisiya ngqo e-Afrika sisuka eWashington, eNewark, eChicago naseLos Angeles. Kweli hlobo, siza kuqalisa ukubhabha ukusuka eHouston. Iinqwelomoya zethu zempahla zixhuma eMiami, eLos Angeles naseNew York.
Ukuhamba kwe-US ukuya e-Afrika kuye kwanda ngaphezu kweepesenti ze-10 kunyaka odlulileyo, okwesibini kuphela ukuya eYurophu kwixesha lokunyuka kwepesenti - ukuya e-Afrika kuye kwanda ngaphezu kokuhamba e-Asia, kuMbindi Mpuma, e-Oceania, eMzantsi Melika, kuMbindi Melika. okanye kwiiCaribbean. Ikamva liqaqambileyo, kwaye i-Ethiopian Airlines iya kuba lapha ukuhlangabezana nemfuno.
Ngaphantsi kweminyaka elishumi, i-Ethiopian Airlines iphindaphindeke kathathu ubukhulu beenqwelo-moya zayo - ngoku sine-113 yeenqwelo-moya ze-Boeing, i-Airbus kunye ne-Bombardier ezibhabha kwiindawo ezili-119 kumazwe ngamazwe kumazwekazi amahlanu. Sinenye yezona nqanawa zincinci kushishino; Ubudala bethu beenqwelo moya yiminyaka emihlanu ngelixa umndilili woshishino yiminyaka eli-12. Ngaphezu koko, siwuphindaphinde kathathu umthamo wabakhweli, ngoku sibhabha ngaphezulu kwezigidi ezili-11 zabakhweli ngonyaka.
Nyaka ngamnye, iAviation Academy yethu iqeqesha ngaphezu kwama-2,000 abaqhubi beenqwelo-moya, abancedisi beenqwelo-moya, abasebenzi bolondolozo kunye nabanye abasebenzi be-Ethiopian Airlines kunye nezinye iinqwelomoya ezininzi zase-Afrika. Siyinkampani abanye ababhenela kuyo kubuchwephesha bokuhamba ngenqwelomoya. Kwiminyaka emi-5 edlulileyo, sityale ngaphezulu kwesiqingatha sebhiliyoni yeedola kuqeqesho kunye nezinye iziseko ezingundoqo kwisiseko sethu sase-Addis Ababa.
Siza kusebenza nabaphandi e-Ethiopia, e-US nakwezinye iindawo ukufumana ukuba yintoni engahambi kakuhle nge-flight 302.
Sizimisele ukusebenzisana noBoeing nabanye ukusebenzisa le ntlekele ukwenza isibhakabhaka sikhuseleke kwihlabathi. ”
