Airline Tyre Contracts For Goodyear

At the Paris Air Show, Goodyear has announced three major contracts for bias-ply aircraft tyres. These are FedEx Corp’s 350+ jet fleet, ExpressJet Holdings (200 aircraft) and American Airlines’ 362 Boeing MD-80 jets. Despite these, Goodyear is convinced that the future lies in radial aircraft tyres, as they are more cost-effective.
