Summary

Joe Anselmo has been Editorial Director of the Aviation Week Network and Editor-in-Chief of Aviation Week & Space Technology since 2013. Based in Washington, D.C., he directs a team of more than two dozen aerospace journalists across the U.S., Europe and Asia-Pacific.

Under his leadership, Aviation Week has won numerous accolades for its in-depth reporting and deep dives into aerospace technology, including the 2017 Grand Neal award for “Top Brand/Overall Editorial Excellence,” business-to-business journalism’s equivalent of the Pulitzer Prize.

Aviation Week also has accelerated its push into digital media with regular podcasts, videos, data features, infographics and eBooks.

Anselmo has more than 25 years of experience as an editor and reporter with Aviation Week, Congressional Quarterly and the Washington Post Company. He has won three Aerospace Journalist of the Year awards. A graduate of Ohio University, he was elected three times to the National Press Club’s Board of Governors, including one term as board chairman.

Bombardier is planning to increase output of its regional jets to levels not seen in five years, in response to a sharp rebound in orders as it begins production on its new 100-seat CRJ1000. The company’s assembly line outside Montreal has just ramped up production to one jet every four days from one every five. Plans call for output to reach one aircraft every three days by September, matching the previous regional jet (RJ) production peak in 2003, when Bombardier was still filling orders placed before the industry’s post-2001 downturn.

By most financial measures, 2007 was a very good year for Boeing. Net income was up 84% from the previous year on an 8% gain in sales. Cash flow grew 28%, to a record $9.6 billion, and debt was pared by 14%. Two years of record commercial aircraft orders have pumped up backlog by 60% to a record $327 billion—the equivalent of five years of revenue. And those orders are dispersed globally, lessening the company’s reliance on the shaky U.S. airline industry.
