Boeing set to top Airbus with record 763 jets in 2017
Boeing Co (BA.N) said on Tuesday it delivered an industry-record 763 jetliners in 2017, likely beating European rival Airbus SE (AIR.PA) to retain the title of world’s biggest plane maker. Boeing also booked 912 net new aircraft orders worth $134.8 billion at list prices last year, compared with 668 worth about $94 billion (£69.5 billion) in 2016. Airbus was on track last month to rack up more than 1,000 gross new orders for the year, excluding cancellations, compared with the 1,053 gross orders Boeing announced on Tuesday.
