it on track to surpass rival Boeing as the world&#8217;s largest manufacturer for the second year in a row, Reuters reports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>See also: <\/strong><a

of 560 deliveries, based on figures that are still being audited, added the sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Airbus, which is expected to announce orders and deliveries for 2020 in the coming days, declined to comment before formal publication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>See also: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/en\/2020\/12\/airbus-explores-narrow-body-aircraft-design-with-ge.html\">Airbus explores narrow-body

airlines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the European manufacturer has an unbeatable advantage over Boeing, which has delivered 118 aircraft between the beginning of 2020 and the end of November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By Tim Hepher<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-post-grid uagb-post-grid  uagb-post__image-position-top
