Boeing delivered 50 jets in May, 13 fewer than European rival Airbus , but a 43% improvement on the same month last year.
Deliveries of the cash-generating Boeing 737 MAX increased to 35 jets in May, Boeing said Tuesday. The company handed over only 17 MAXs to customers, when Boeing found a bracket installation defect that forced it to fix aircraft before delivery.
Boeing's monthly orders and deliveries snapshot comes a week before aerospace executives gather for the Paris Air Show, where both Boeing and Airbus are expected to cement new deals. However, Dreamliner deliveries could slow in June due to a new production glitch disclosed by the company. The problem, involving miniscule gaps in a fitting on the horizontal stabilizer located at the base of the 787's tail, must be fixed before Boeing can hand over planes to customers.
