If cancellations are deducted from these figures, the net figure is 1,044 aircraft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The European giant is maintaining the major industrial and financial targets it has been setting itself since February for 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That means it is confident of delivering 720 commercial aircraft, achieving adjusted Ebit of \u20ac6 billion and cash flow of \u20ac3 billion before accounting for perimeter change transactions and customer financing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"related-topics\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div
