Airbus delivered 57 aircraft in August, intensifying pressure to reach its 870-jet 2026 target

Airbus delivered 57 commercial aircraft to 31 customers in August, down from 61 a year earlier and 67 in July, while recording 67 orders. The slowdown leaves the manufacturer reliant on a heavily backloaded delivery schedule to reach its target of around 870 aircraft in 2026.
