Presentation - TRB Webinar Aviation Supply Chain Problems and Industry Response

About

The demand for air travel is outpacing the ability of original equipment manufacturers and their suppliers to deliver new aircraft. Manufacturers are missing delivery orders and falling short of promised production rates due to a mix of management issues, limited oversight, strained supply lines, and labor shortages. As a result, airlines are delaying or canceling new routes and cutting capacity, leading to higher airfares and fewer service options for consumers. TRB hosted a webinar on Monday, August 25, 2025 from 12:00 PM to 1:30 PM Eastern that explored the extent of aircraft production problems and the various factors that have contributed to them. Presenters shared stakeholder perspectives and identified what manufacturers and governments are doing to address the problems and the impact on consumers.

The slides are available. Please visit the webinar details page to access the recording.

Webinar agenda and presenters

U.S. Government Accountability Office perspective – Katherine Hamer, GAO
Aerospace Industries Association of America perspective – Kelvin Stroud, AIA
Aviation Supply Chain Integrity Coalition – Darby Becker, GE Aerospace
Question and answer session moderated by Heather Halliwell, GAO

The first 60 minutes of the webinar will be for presentations and the final 30 minutes will be reserved for audience questions.

Learning Objectives

At the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:

Understand the various factors that have contributed to the aircraft production problems
Identify what manufacturers and governments are doing to address the problems

Public and multimodal transportation can play a critical role in emergency evacuations. TRB hosted a webinar on Monday, August 4, 2025 from 12:00 PM to 1:30 PM Eastern that explored how transit systems can support mass evacuations, reduce congestion, aid carless residents and visitors, and preserve emergency response capacity. Presenters shared insights from wildfire evacuations, including the 2021 Caldor Fire and the 2025 Southern California wildfires, and examined research findings, case studies, and planning principles. Attendees learned about coordination strategies, infrastructure considerations such as mobility hubs, and best practices for better integrating transit into emergency response efforts.

The slides are available. Please visit the webinar details page to access the recording.
