Global economic cycle
Steady performance but weakening trend over 2016
Indicator Current level Trend

Forecasts for global GDP for 2016 have declined since the start of the year, from 2.6% to 2.1%, with reductions for the US & Latin America being sharpest. China has increased to 6.6% for 2016.
OECD Leading Indicators OECD members fairly stable at ~100 index. Within this, Euro Area above 100; US and major 5 Asian countries (including China) are below 100, as are many developing nations
Some concerns on trend for China, Asia and US, with Europe and India suggesting expansion
World Trade World Trade in dollar terms showing a decline in 2015, but small rise(c.2%) in volume terms
Small slowing of trade growth seen sinceend-2014. Q1 2016 showed around 1.0% year-on-year increase. Levels still well below early noughties which was 5-10%

Market outlook
24
flightglobal.com/consultancy 25
Aviation demand cycle
Demand side still very strong but trends suggest it could have peakedIndicator Current level TrendPassenger traffic Above trend growth for sixth year running; 5.8% YTD.
Asia-Pacific growth still strong, N America and Europe more mature
Growth rate was above 6% for most of 2015 and >7% during summer. Last seven months have seen demand lag supply
Freight traffic Recovery seen in 2015 has now slowed, 2016 YTD only 1.4%. Express/regional freight performing better.
Capacity significantly exceeding demand; consistent with weak manufacturing data from China
Yields US yields are only readily available monthly data point; remain high by historic standards. March 2016 @ 9.6c/RPK is below 2011-2015 levels, but fuel price has halved.
Yields have been falling since December 2014; Q1 2016 down around 5%. However, this is not a major concern yet, as costs are down by >10% as a result of falling oil prices
Load Factors Still near historically record levels. Asia much lower –emerging evidence of overcapacity in some areas?
US, European, Asian, Middle East load factors are all now falling, as supply (capacity) starts to exceed demand.
New aircraft orders Around 2,050 net orders for commercial jets. In 2015 with book to bill of 1.3. 2016 Single-aisle still >1.0 (GREEN), but twin-aisle and RJ around 0.5 (AMBER)
Order intake fallen sharply from the levels of 2011-2014. New programmes sold out for several years, with limited slots now available, driving downward trend
Deferrals & cancellations
Deferrals have ticked up following several recent airline capacity adjustments from prior low level. Cancellations now just above average, although this is lower if normalised for fleet size
Both cancellations and deferral rate increasing in Q3 2016. Most recent cancellations arise from OEMs cleansing order book but deferrals reflect significant fleet plan adjustments (Southwest, American, Turkish)
flightglobal.com/consultancy 26
Aviation supply cycleDespite strong demand, several indicators amber Indicator Current level TrendAircraft deliveries 2015 had record commercial jet deliveries, 2016
expected to slightly exceedProduction rates set to increase for A320, 737, 787 & A350, plus CSeries ramp-up; A330 reducing; 777, 747, A380 being cut.
Deliveries for replacement / growth
Past 5 years, deliveries for replacement made up around 50% of the total, around ten points higher than long-run average
Decline since 2008; 2015 has seen share for replacement falling significantly, towards numbers consistent with peak years of cycles
Deliveries as percentage of fleet
6.5% in 2015, actually marginally down over 2014. The average over the past 25 years has been 7%
Trend is to a higher percentage, with above 7% in 2016 – 2019; such levels could indicate overcapacity based on past history
Stored aircraft Absolute level of stored commercial jets has fallen slightly since 2012, and shows significant decline since the recession in terms of % of fleet
Single-aisle declining, some increases in twin-aisle, RJs increasing rapidly, driven by 50 seat jets ex-US market
Used aircraft availability Commercial aircraft offered for sale / lease currently at lowest point since 2010
Falling numbers of available single-aisle, RJs stable - many stored 50 seat jets not actively being marketed
Aircraft economic life Average age at retirement is now <25 years, despite fall in fuel prices
Average age ticked up slightly in 2016, consistent with strong demand environment, but still some young aircraft parting out
Aircraft utilisation Single-aisle & twin-aisle utilisations are at or near historic highs
Fairly flat trend since recovering in 2010/11. 2016 shows modest increases.

Conclusions
Global economic prospects positive but many weaknessesSubstantially lower oil prices benefit the majority of major economiesEurope continues to have regional economic issues, but overall Eurozone growth is the highest since the recessionUS growth still ambivalentChina heavy manufacturing slowdown, but services still strong
Geo-political risks are ever-presentRussia-Ukraine-Europe. TurkeyMiddle East & North AfricaChina claims in S China sea
Despite all of which…the global industry remains profitable and growing for now

Single-Aisle Twin-Aisle Share of Fleet
Source: Flight Fleets Analyzer (passenger aircraft in service / stored)
flightglobal.com/consultancy 32
January 2016 analysis indicates 50% penetration is unlikely to be achieved in five years time
Global passenger fleet at end of 2022 (excluding RJs) is predicted to be ~25,500 aircraftLeasing fleet in service would need to be ~12,750 aircraftEquivalent leasing fleet today is 7,220 aircraftSo net addition of 5,530 aircraft required over next seven yearsFlightglobal Fleet Forecast predicts delivery of 11,500 commercial passenger jets through 2022~40% of the operating lease fleet from seven years ago has been replaced; on today’s fleet this equates to 3,100 aircraft that could be expected to exit the leased fleet in the next seven yearsSo to achieve 50% fleet market share by 2022, under this scenario lessors would need to add 8,450 new aircraft (5,530 growth plus 3,100 replacement) to their portfolios over the next seven years – that’s equivalent to 75% of new deliveries predicted over that period (and worth US$643 billion in 2015EC)Even to maintain today’s 42% market share under this scenario would require ~6,600 new deliveries – 57% of all new deliveries (US$490 billion)
