Ubuhlakani obujwayelekile buthi izinkampani zezindiza kufanele zifaka izindiza ezinomzimba omncane kuphela emizileni yasekhaya futhi zisebenzise amajethi amakhulu anomzimba obanzi ukuze indize imizila yamazwe ngamazwe.
Nokho, lokho kungaba yinkinga uma indiza yakho encane edlula i-Atlantic kuyi-Boeing 767, enezihlalo ezingu-225, futhi unemizila engakwazi ukusekela ithrafikhi engaka.
Injalo-ke indaba ye-American Airlines Inc., impendulo yayo, njengoba kuye kwaba ngenani lezindiza, iwukuvuselela ama-Boeing 757 ayo amancane, asendaweni eyodwa futhi awabeke emizileni emifushane yamazwe ngamazwe.
I-Fort Worth-based American iqale ukundiza indiza yokuqala kwezingu-18 eziphinde zahlelwa kabusha i-Boeing 757-200, enezigaba ezintsha zebhizinisi kanye nesigaba somnotho, emzileni wayo waseNew York-Brussels ngoLwesine, umzila owawundiziswa yi-Boeing 767- 300s.
I-American ithi eminye imizila esebenzisa i-Boeing 757 ingase ihlanganise nezindiza zaseNew York eziya e-Barcelona, eSpain, nase-Paris; eBoston ukuya eParis; futhi iMiami iya eSalvador, eBrazil, indiza esaqhubeka iya eRecife, eBrazil.
Usihlalo we-American kanye ne-AMR Corp. kanye nesikhulu esiphezulu uGerard Arpey uthe ama-757 ahlelwe kabusha azosetshenziswa eNyakatho-mpumalanga aye kwezinye zezimakethe ezincane zaseYurophu futhi aphume eMiami aye kwamanye amadolobha onqenqemeni olusenyakatho yeNingizimu Melika.
Isikhulu esiphezulu sezezimali se-AMR u-Tom Horton uthe emalini etholwa yinkampani ngo-Ephreli 15 ukuthi i-757 ehlelwe kabusha cishe izosetshenziswa kokubili ukufaka esikhundleni sezindiza ezinkulu emizileni ekhona kanye “nokundiza okusha. Kuzoba umkhiqizo omuhle kakhulu. Sizoba ne-lay-flat yangempela ekilasini lokuqala, ezohlukanisa kwabanye abandiza i-757s uhambo olude. "
Ama-Boeing 124 aseMelika angu-757 ngokuvamile acushwa anezihlalo ezingu-188 - izihlalo ezisezingeni lebhizinisi ezingu-22 kanye nezihlalo ezingu-166 esigabeni somnotho. Kodwa izihlalo ezingama-757 zamazwe ngamazwe zinezihlalo eziyi-182 kuphela, eziyi-16 kuphela esigabeni samabhizinisi.
Eziyi-18 eziguqulwayo zibe izindiza zamazwe ngamazwe zilungiswa kabusha ngezihlalo ezintsha, ama-TV ayisicaba athatha indawo yamamonitha esitayela esidala, izindlu zangasese ezintsha kanye nesistimu yokuzijabulisa engcono kakhulu endizeni. Ezimbili manje seziphelile, kanti izindiza ezisele zizokwenziwa kabusha ekupheleni kuka-2009.
UmMelika akayena owokuqala futhi akayena owokuqala ukusebenzisa i-Boeing 757s ukundizela e-Europe.
I-Continental Airlines Inc. indiza isuka eNewark, NJ, isizinda sayo iye emadolobheni ase-Europe angu-19, okuhlanganisa namadolobha amabili aqhele ngamamayela angaphezu kuka-3,900: iStockholm neBerlin.
I-Delta Air Lines Inc. iphinde yathembela ku-Boeing 757 ukuze yandise uhlelo lwayo lomzila ukusuka eNew York, yengeze amadolobha ase-Europe nase-Afrika. Ngisho neMelika ike yandizisa amaBoeing 757s aya eYurophu esikhathini esidlule, njengaphakathi kweNew York neManchester, eNgilandi, ngo-1995.
Umxhumanisi wezindiza ezinze eMiami uStuart Klaskin uthe abaseMelika nabanye bandize imizimba emincane bangena eLatin America, ngisho naseNingizimu Melika ejulile, okungenani iminyaka eyishumi.
Ukusebenzisa izindiza ezincane kuvumela abathwali ukuthi basebenzise “imizila emide, emincane” engakwazi ukusekela indiza enkulu, kusho u-Klaskin.
Kwezinye izimo, kungaba umzila okuhamba kwawo izimoto kwehlile, noma umzila omusha oya edolobheni lesibili laseYurophu mncane kakhulu ukuthi ungasekela ama-Boeing 767s, Boeing 777s, Airbus A330s noma ama-Airbus A340s akha ingxenye enkulu yezimboni zase-US. imikhumbi enomzimba obanzi.
"Empeleni kuyindlela emisha kakhulu yokugcina kanye nokwandisa uhlelo lwemizila yamazwe ngamazwe: ukubeka indiza encane kulokho obekukade kuyimakethe ebanzi," kusho u-Klaskin.
Ngokuvamile, inkampani yezindiza ingandiza i-Boeing 767-300 egcwele abagibeli ngezindleko eziphansi umgibeli ngamunye kune-Boeing 757-200 egcwele abagibeli. Kodwa-ke, cishe i-757-200 egcwele enezisebenzi ezincane ezishisa uphethiloli omncane zingenza uhambo lube nomnotho ngaphezu kwe-767-300 enenani elifanayo labagibeli.
"Ivumela inkampani yezindiza ukuthi igcine isevisi ngaphandle kokulahlekelwa yimali, noma ingalahlekelwa yimali eningi endaweni yanamuhla," kusho uKlaskin.
Okunye okusibuyisela emuva ekusebenziseni i-Boeing 757s ukuthi abahambi abaningi bakhetha indiza enomzimba obanzi, bekholelwa ukuthi ikhululeke kakhudlwana kunendiza esendaweni eyodwa njengeBoeing 757, kusho uKlaskin.
Akaqinisekile kangako. Abangu-757 banabagibeli abambalwa futhi azikho ikholomu ephakathi nendawo eminyene yezihlalo esigabeni somnotho.
Izigaba zesigaba sebhizinisi ngaphambili kufanele zikhululeke ngokulinganayo endizeni enomzimba obanzi noma emincane, esho.
"Ngicabanga ukuthi esimweni esibi kakhulu, izindiza azikhululekile kubaqeqeshi."
