Doubts are already swirling in the industry over whether the supply chain will be able to meet aggressive production ramp-up plans, particularly in Europe. Suppliers are grappling with labor and materials shortages and weakened balance sheets following the overlapping pandemic and 737 MAX safety grounding crises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boeing said in late January it was working to clear an inventory of 335 737 MAX airplanes amassed following two fatal crashes of the jet that grounded the plane for 20 months. It has estimated most of those jets would be delivered by the end of 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2192 <a

Financial Officer Brian West said the 737 program was producing at a rate of 27 jets per month and was on track to reach 31 per month &#8220;fairly soon&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Two of the people said the 31-jet monthly stride would come during the second half of the year, though a third person said it could happen sooner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond that, Boeing aims to increase to around 38 narrowbody jets monthly during the first half of 2023, and reach about 47 jets per month in the second half of 2023, two people said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boeing was laying the groundwork to nearly double production by the end of 2023, the third person said, but noted the plans could change due to supply chain constraints or other factors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Airbus, meanwhile, has set a production target of 65 a month by summer 2023 for its A320-family narrowbody.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"related-topics\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-post-grid
