Narrowbody Deliveries Reach Highest Monthly Figure This Year
Airbus and Boeing delivered a combined 124 commercial narrowbody jets in June, the highest monthly figure for the year. Airbus delivered 9 A220s, representing a year-over-year decrease of 3 aircraft, and handed over 73 A320neo-family aircraft. The increase in deliveries may be a sign of a recovering commercial aviation market. According to Antoine Fafard, an analyst for Aviation Week, the data was published in Aviation Daily, an Aviation Week Intelligence Network (AWIN) Market Briefing.
