Boeing Outpaces Airbus With 72 Orders To Airbus’ 59 In July

Last month, Boeing achieved a rare win over a European aircraft manufacturer in July for ordering new aircraft. However, overall, year to date, Boeing is still trailing badly in following a string of safety concerns at the American aircraft manufacturer. The Seattle-based American airline manufacturer scored 72 new planes in July versus 59 at Airbus. Most were from aircraft leasing companies for the 737 MAX jet, of which it received 57 orders, with the bulk of interest coming from the Farnborough Air Show.
