> Airbus, as of last month, reports having received 777 orders for the aircraft
Wait is that a typo or a dig at Boeing?
Wait is that a typo or a dig at Boeing?
Given that Air France recently converted outstanding orders for the A380 to three A350, that would make 777 as of last month consistent with 780 as of today.
This 780 figure is also including two orders for a total of 16 A350-800, which will never be built. So it is consistent with the 764 figure that do not include these A350-800.
Conclusion: not a typo.
