Boeing would be 'thrilled' with role on new UK fighter - defence CEO
Boeing Co (BA.N), the world's largest planemaker, would be "thrilled" to participate in a new British fighter jet programme, the company's defence chief said, although she said Britain still needed to clarify details about the project. Leanne Caret, chief executive of Boeing Defense, Space & Security, told Reuters in an interview at the Farnborough Airshow this week that Boeing was watching the situation but that it was premature to make more definitive statements. "If there is an opportunity where the Boeing Company can participate and play, we will be absolutely honoured and thrilled to be part of that journey," she added.

Ill-prepared suppliers threaten aerospace giants in case of hard Brexit
Airbus (AIR.PA) is stockpiling parts in case of a hard Brexit and Rolls-Royce (RR.L) is months away from doing so. The largest aerospace sector in Europe and second in the world behind the United States, the British industry generates exports worth 30 billion pounds a year and sustains 123,000 direct jobs, plus as many again indirectly. A disorderly or no-deal Brexit would threaten the smooth flow of parts across borders and prevent European regulatory approval for aerospace products.

Engine maker Rolls-Royce is exploring the idea of using robots inspired by snakes and cockroaches to help it inspect and repair engines in the future, the company's researchers said at the Farnborough Airshow. Removing engines from wings incurs disruption for airlines, and so doing more maintenance while the engines are in place saves time and money for airlines, and also reduces costs for Rolls-Royce as the maintenance provider. In one early-stage technology, Rolls-Royce is looking at using a snake-style robot to deposit a set of miniature robots into the centre of an engine to carry out a visual inspection.

Airbus says activating Brexit contingency plans as UK strategy 'unravelling'
Airbus is activating its Brexit contingency plans as the British government's strategy for leaving the European Union appears to be "unravelling," the head of Europe's biggest planemaker said on Wednesday. Britain is due to leave the EU in less than nine months, but there is little clarity over its future relationship with the world’s biggest trading bloc, creating a headache for companies that rely on the smooth flow of goods and parts across borders. Airbus, which employs 15,000 people in Britain, has issued a series of warnings about the dangers of the country quitting the EU without an agreed deal, saying this month that could halt output at its plants and leave aircraft grounded.

UK PM May narrowly avoids defeat in parliament on EU trade laws
British Prime Minister Theresa May narrowly avoided a defeat in parliament at the hands of pro-EU lawmakers from her own party on Tuesday, fending off a rebellion that had threatened to deepen a crisis over her Brexit strategy. Parliament voted 307 to 301 against an amendment to trade legislation in a vote that had been closely followed by currency markets, and was seen as a test of May's ability to deliver a smooth British exit from the European Union and keep her job. The amendment would have required the government to try to negotiate a customs union arrangement with the EU if, by Jan. 21, 2019, it had failed to negotiate a frictionless free trade deal with the bloc.

Rolls Considers Stockpiling Parts Amid May's Brexit Wobbles
Rolls-Royce Holdings Plc Chief Executive Officer Warren East warned the aircraft enginemaker may soon need to start stockpiling parts after Prime Minister Theresa May backpedaled on her latest customs proposals as part of her Brexit blueprint. If there’s no clarity on trading arrangements, the London-based company will decide on building a “buffer” of parts to sustain production in the fourth quarter, East said at the U.K.’s biennial Farnborough Air Show. Rolls-Royce is meeting with suppliers to help advise on how to manage the divorce from the bloc.

Britain unveiled a model of a sleek proposed fighter jet named Tempest on Monday, raising questions about the future of European defence cooperation, given that Germany and France launched their own fighter jet program a year ago. At the Farnborough Airshow, Defence Minister Gavin Williamson said 2 billion pounds ($2.7 billion) had been earmarked to finance the programme out to 2025 and that Britain would seek international partners to provide additional funding.

Prime Minister Theresa May will on Monday seek to reassure aviation bosses that her under-fire Brexit plan won't disrupt their supply chains, and promise that the industry will flourish as Britain leaves the European Union. May's words, to be delivered at the Farnborough Airshow south west of London, come at a crunch time for the prime minister as pro-Brexit lawmakers in her party threaten revolt over an EU exit strategy they say leaves Britain subject to Brussels' rule.
