\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Turkish Airlines’ order for 100 737 MAX jets boosted Boeing’s September total of new orders to 165
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Company still trailed European rival Airbus’ 72 deliveries in September, but it far outsold its rival, which booked only 17 new orders from two customers last month
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Boeing shares fell 1.6% in afternoon trading
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0September orders \u2060did not include any of the 200 jets China committed to in May. Company officials had hoped to convert some of those into firm orders during last month\u2019s summit between Chinese and US leaders
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0“We are making progress toward addressing China’s growing need for airplanes. We continue to follow China\u2019s established airplane procurement process by working closely with the government and our customers,\u201d a Boeing spokesperson told Reuters
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0September deliveries included 43 737 MAX jets, eight 787s, two 777 freighters and four 767s, including three for Boeing’s defense unit for completion \u2060as KC-46 aerial refueling tankers
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The higher deliveries come as Boeing works to consistently increase 737 MAX output to 47 jets a month, which has taken longer than expected, Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg said during an investor conference in September
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Through September, it has delivered 475 jets this year, up 8% from \u2060a year earlier. That includes 363 737 MAX jets, the most the MAX program has ever delivered in the first nine months of a year
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0In addition to Turkish Airlines’ order, Boeing booked orders \u2060for 20 737 MAX jets for Lufthansa, six 737 MAX and five 787 jets for Biman Bangladesh Airlines, and eight 777-8 freighters and two 777 freighters for Ethiopian Airlines. \u2060Another six 737 MAX and 18 787 orders came from unidentified customers
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Boeing ended September with an official backlog of 6,371 jets, up from 6,156 at the end of August.\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
