Airbus Investigates Industrial Quality Issue on A320-family Aircraft

Airbus Faces New Challenge Amid A320 Program Pressure

Airbus is investigating a quality issue affecting several dozen A320-family aircraft, prompting delays in near-term deliveries. The suspected production flaw concerns manufacturing tolerances and has not yet affected aircraft already in service. Airbus is racing to meet its annual delivery target, which requires a record December performance. The company handed over 72 aircraft in November, bringing the 2025 total to 657. AeroTime has requested further information.
