Airbus reported that it delivered 55 aircraft in September, bringing the number of aircraft delivered so far this year to 437.
Adjusting for the cancellation of two planes that Airbus reported delivered in 2021, but which remained in Toulouse only to be overtaken by sanctions following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Airbus has delivered 435 jets so far this year, Reuters reported.
→ Airbus delivers its 500th A350.
Airbus therefore needs to deliver 265 planes in the last quarter of the year to hit a recently softened target of 700 jets.
That is an “undemanding fourth-quarter target,” analyst Sash Tusa wrote in a note.
Deliveries are traditionally skewed towards the last quarter. But industry sources also caution that supply chains remain unpredictable after months of disruption since the pandemic, exacerbated by the war in Ukraine.
Airbus booked the sale of 13 airplanes in September. So far this year it has sold 856 aircraft or 647 after cancellations.
