There was an often-repeated statistic not too long that said Airbus’ A321neo was outselling the MAX 9 five to one. Well, that number has contracted. Airbus’s single-aisle MoM advantage shrinks every month. The MOM subject is something we focus on a lot.
Using our daily delivery tracker, we offer the following chart. Back in early 2021, yes, Airbus was close to 6:1 ahead. But as Renton restarted deliveries and airlines selected the MAX 9, the ratio dropped to the current level (through 7/18/23) of 3.5:1.
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.
