The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has officially added one of the engine options for the Airbus A321XLR to the LEAP-1As certificate in the latest revision of the document.
American Airlines is said to have already taken possession of its first Airbus A321XLR (Extra Long Range) narrowbody aircraft. However, the brand new aircraft will remain in Europe.Why is this? Well, sadly, it’s due to supply chain issues related to a shortage of seats.
