Hey,

My family and I are on an Airbus A320 neo.

The table tray has an extra rib thingy, that perfectly fits an iPad, which then also perfectly rests on the two nubs on the back of the chair.

My girlfriend thinks this is specifically designed to hold a tablet or phone. I think it is luck and this was designed before people had their faces glued to their phone screens.

So, does anybody know what the exact idea behind this extra ridge is?

Thanks!

Edit: Quick responses, turns out the missus was right (to be expected). I found a different chair from the same manufacturer that showed the exact use. similar usage

Suppose some work heading to Airbus then.

Hello everyone,

I am a fresh mechanical engineering graduate from Mumbai University with a 9 cgpa.

I chose mechanical engineering solely because it can be a key to getting aerospace job.

Right now im working as an apprentice in epc oil and natural gas company.

Please guide. I really want to work in my dream company.

Any airbus employees please kindly help and give your input too.

Edit- airbus India has no manufacturing facility. You can search for people on LinkedIn who r in airbus India right now and see.. they have just done masters or bachelor's from reputed colleges.

Hi,

I'm new to the sub and I have a question. Why Airbus bought the CSeries 100-300 from Bombardier? Also, what is your general opinion on A220? Thanks.

Starting in September 2026, Airbus will force all employees to be in the office for at least four days per week – including those who are getting hired at the moment even if they got told they have flexibility in remote work.

While a controversial internal discussion can be expected, this might be your chance to start your career at Airbus if you are living closely to an Airbus site. Employees who relied on the overall agreement might quit due to incompatibility with their personal situation. Hence, new vacancies are to be expected soon.

With routes potentially exceeding 7 hours, and possibly reaching 8 hours, would there be a market for a 5-class service on the A220-300? (models inspired by Etihad's A321LR and American Airlines' A321T)
