(Reuters) – Boeing announced on Tuesday that it had delivered 44 planes in February, compared to 27 a year earlier, while the American aircraft manufacturer strives to stabilize and increase the production of its 737 max and 787 models.
This figure is only slightly lower than January, when the group announced that it has delivered 45 aircraft, the largest number of monthly deliveries recorded since 2023.
In February, Boeing delivered 32 single -off 737 max, the best -selling, and five large carriers 787.
Aircraft deliveries are closely followed by investors, aircraft manufacturers receiving the majority of payments when they put the aircraft to their customers.
Boeing recorded 13 gross orders, plus eight cancellations, a net total of five orders in February.
The 13 new orders all concerned 737 max planes.
Among these orders is that of BOC Aviation, a company specializing in aircraft rental, based in Singapore, for five maxial planes, which it plans to rent to the Arajet, a carrier based in the Dominican Republic, which canceled its own five max order.
Among the cancellations, the freight airline Western Global Airlines, based in Florida, abandoned an order of two 777 cargo.
During the first two months of the year, Boeing recorded 41 net orders, against 65 for its European competitor Airbus.
