Rolls-royce Share Discussion Threads

Remembering past posts on this thread Easyjet's involvement with RR is via the Hydrogen engine tests. I could be mistaken, but few if any Easyjet aircraft use RR engines at the moment as most EJ aircraft are single aisle, short-haul types.

On a similar theme, JET2 are commencing operations from John Lennon Airport in Speke, Liverpool. 20 destinations are planned.

The wife and I generally fly to Nice out of Liverpool each year and now, hopefully, we will have a choice from that airport. Last Sept. Easyjet cancelled our return flight with 48 hours notice and whilst I appreciate French air traffic control strikes were to blame Easyjet did NOT honour it's requirements under EC261/2004 and find us an alternate flight. I digress from RR - apologies.

JET2's 757-200's use two RR engines.

However, Jet2's new plane orders are likely to use the CFM Leap engine. These carry a stylised Pegasus horse image on the cowling and I saw loads of these recently when returning from Honolulu via LAX, CDG and MAN. Delta and Air France seem to favour this brand. CFM is a joint GE and Safran (of France) venture.

This is going to melt up through short-term resistance soon.

News flow is strong and set to continue to be so.

EasyJet's revenue surges by 80%

It’s good news, should be reflected on the balance sheet going forward

We broke the 150p level a couple of weeks ago, that’s no longer a resistance point

[vikingwarrier] 18/5/2023 09:55

This should drive te share price to 175-180p

Nice on Tufan. Arrive, diss the company and its employees, wait less than a year and then claim the benefit for "many years work".

One could argue his burning platform speech provided a buying opportunity.

"In the nearer term, there are options to transfer technologies from the UltraFan development programme to current Trent engines, providing our customers with even greater availability, reliability and efficiency," Rolls-Royce added.

Just imagine the market if they can retrofit it?

The whole world will want this technology

(Alliance News) - Rolls-Royce Holdings PLC on Thursday reported "successful" testing of a new fuel efficient aerospace engine, culminating "many years work" alongside the UK and European Union.

The jet engine maker said promising testing of its UltraFan technology is a "game changer".

"This is a historic moment for Rolls-Royce – it's the first time in 54 years the aero-engine manufacturer has tested a brand-new engine architecture and is proof of what can be achieved when industry and governments work together," Rolls-Royce said.

"Testing the demonstrator is the culmination of many years work, which has been supported by the UK government through the Aerospace Technology Institute, Innovate UK; the EU's Clean Sky programmes plus LuFo and the state of Brandenburg in Germany."

Rolls-Royce said UltraFan delivers a 10% efficiency improvement compared to its current Trent XWB, which is already the "most efficient large aero engine in service".

"In the nearer term, there are options to transfer technologies from the UltraFan development programme to current Trent engines, providing our customers with even greater availability, reliability and efficiency," Rolls-Royce added.

Chief Executive Tufan Erginbilgic said the technology will also be key in the journey to net-zero.

"The UltraFan demonstrator is a game changer – the technologies we are testing as part of this programme have the capability to improve the engines of today as well as the engines of tomorrow. That is why this announcement is so important – we are witnessing history in the making; a step-change in engine efficiency improvement. When combined with sustainable aviation fuels, more efficient gas turbine engines will be key to hitting the industry's target of net-zero flight by 2050. Today we are closer to achieving this ambition," Erginbilgic said.

Rolls-Royce shares were up 1.7% at 155.45 pence early Thursday in London.

Seems like this is going up today - again.

You don’t understand the thought processes of the dark side

We are like markets

Market can make you celebrate lower prices regularly. Master of it

The dark side can make you laugh at your own impaling

……

As Impaler pointed out, markets are masters at getting gerbils to celebrate lower prices (than day before result)

It’s wonderful watching the psychology play out haha

Drew, I’m filtering you mate, you don’t add anything.

hey insane institution


you been owned this week


embarrasing to watch


ripped a new one daily on SYME

[weemonkey] 17/5/2023 09:13

And in your case, it would appear not enough aggregated brain cells to be able to spell the word 'maybe'.

[institutional investments] 16/5/2023 16:58

It is actually cringeworthy watching what happens when a share rises

Sometimes I think I accidentally landed on planet of the chimps when there

I dread watching the brain cells aggregate there as the share price rises and rises

May be enough particles to form an amoeba

Reckon 142s this week at some stage

Then the fun begins

I think jts fair to say the mentioned circa -1%nearly there on ftse

What next?

[institutional investments] 16/5/2023 15:34

All very excited

Tapped the money again I see 😂

Index will be doing no favours

From today: In the City there was talk of a mega-order of dozens of long-haul Airbus aircraft from Delta Air Lines, the US carrier. At list prices it would be worth tens of billions of dollars. This was good news for Rolls-Royce, which makes the engines for both the Airbus A350 and the A330neo, up 5¾p, or 3.8 per cent, to 150¾p.

Rolls Royce still rocks with leading investment bank - even after CEO comments


Jefferies, the investment bank, delved into the European aerospace and defence sector in a recent research note, with Rolls-Royce Holdings PLC (LSE:RR.) in the spotlight.

CEO Tufan Erginbilgic faced a challenge at the jet engine maker's annual meeting, having to justify his "underperforming company" remarks.

Erginbilgic explained his comments as a wake-up call to staff, stressing that the company's ongoing transformation is starting to yield results. Rolls remains on Jefferies' 'buy' list.

Elsewhere in the skies, Turkish Airlines is planning a significant expansion, the bank noted.

Chairman Ahmet Bolat let slip that they are in talks to order 600 new aircraft from Airbus and Boeing, potentially pushing the airline's fleet to 810 by 2033.

Meanwhile, the bankrupt Indian airline Go First is in a standoff with Pratt & Whitney over leased engines.

P&W is pushing back, stating Go First's failure to pay for maintenance and leases led to the supply issue. Jefferies suggests that until this situation resolves, MTU Aero's shares could remain under pressure.
