Airbus and Boeing compete vigorously for every order. And the most active front of that battle is in the single-aisle market, where the NEO and MAX face off. These two aircraft deliver nearly identical economics (depending on the operator) and, for practical purposes, there’s very little daylight between them.
How do YTD delivery rates look? We are focusing on the A320neo family (excluding the A319) and the 737 MAX for this comparison. The following table shows YTD deliveries through this weekend.
Co-Founder AirInsight. My previous life includes stints at Shell South Africa, CIC Research, and PA Consulting. Got bitten by the aviation bug and ended up an Avgeek. Then the data bug got me, making me a curious Avgeek seeking data-driven logic. Also, I appreciate conversations with smart people from whom I learn so much. Summary: I am very fortunate to work with and converse with great people.
