The forecasted re-import of aircraft under-carriages and parts to the UK shows a steady decline from 74.96 thousand kilograms in 2024 to 54.75 thousand kilograms in 2028. This represents an average annual decrease of approximately 7% across the forecast period. In comparison to 2023, when the volume was higher, this downward trend suggests a consistent reduction in demand or changes in supply chain dynamics.
Future trends to watch for:
- Potential impact of technological advancements in aircraft part durability reducing re-import needs.
- Changes in aviation industry regulations which might affect import dynamics.
- Evolving trade agreements post-Brexit influencing aircraft part trade.
