U.S. Planemaker Boeing has released details of the aircraft deliveries for the second quarter of the year showing just 20 commercial aircraft deliveries - including 7 787s and 4 777 jets. Although with the production lines stopped for a while, perhaps it isn't surprising there was so little activity
Greg Smith, Boeing executive vice president of Enterprise Operations, chief financial officer and interim leader of Communications, said: "Our commercial airplane deliveries in the second quarter reflect the significant impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our customers and our operations that included a shutdown of our commercial aeroplane production for several weeks. We have and will continue to work with our customers on specific timing and adjustment to deliveries. "We continue to closely monitor the commercial marketplace by staying very engaged with our customers around the globe to fully understand short term and long term requirements. All of this is informing current and future production rates and any further adjustments as needed to balance supply and demand going forward. The diversity of our portfolio including our government services, defense and space programs will continue to provide some stability as we navigate through the pandemic and rebuild stronger on the other side."
Major program deliveries during the second quarter were as follows:
