In the February 2023 edition of Airliner World, we head to Lisbon to chat to TAP Air Portugal CEO Christine Ourmières-Widener about her grand plans to overhaul the flag carrier. We also shine the spotlight on the ‘new’ Flybe 2.0 and ask whether it really will be second time lucky for the British regional carrier, and from South America, Azul’s André Américo provides an insight into the São Paulo-based airline’s bullish approach to post-pandemic recovery and expansion. Elsewhere, we investigate how Oshkosh, Wisconsin’s Basler Turbo Conversions is breathing new life into the venerable Douglas DC-3 and C-47, we take a look at Oslo Airport’s revolutionary approach to snow clearance, we have the latest on Widerøe’s pioneering efforts to electrify regional aviation, and we pay tribute to the ill-fated Avro Canada C-102 Jetliner, an aircraft years ahead of its time and unrivalled in performance. We also take a trip in France’s specially modified Beechcraft King Airs on a mission to test and calibrate critical navigation aids at Paris/Charles de Gaulle, we bring you the latest update from Airbus and its bid to develop hydrogen-powered aircraft, and we share a selection of photos from Arizona’s famous desert boneyards.
