This plan has drawn criticism from engine makers and aircraft leasing companies about the risk of overproduction during a fragile airline industry recovery from the pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>\u2192<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/en\/2021\/10\/breeze-airways-unveils-first-airbus-a220.html\">Breeze Airways unveils its first Airbus A220.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We will talk about those conversations with them directly behind closed doors,&#8221; Culp told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/business\/aerospace-defense\/ge-backs-near-term-jet-output-plans-airbus-boeing-ceo-2021-10-26\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Reuters<\/a> in an interview. &#8220;There is no need to have that conversation publicly at this time.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In May, Airbus announced a firm target of increasing A320-family production from 40 planes a month to 64 by the second quarter of 2023 and said it was asking suppliers to enable a &#8220;scenario&#8221; of 70 a month by the first quarter of 2024. The planemaker also said it was investigating rates as high as 75 by 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Industry sources say suppliers have agreed to support the firm goal of 64 a month but have yet to reach agreement on supporting the higher rates, fearing that demand would fail to meet expectations. read more<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier, Raytheon Technologies Chief Executive Greg Hayes said he was skeptical whether the market would support Airbus rates as high as 75 a month. read more<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Raytheon Technologies owns Pratt &amp; Whitney which competes with GE-Safran (SAF.PA) venture CFM to supply jet engines for the best-selling Airbus A320 family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By Rajesh Kumar Singh<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div
