Why is Aircraft Production Slower Than Expected? (Airbus & Boeing) š
There is one main reason: THE GLOBAL SUPPLY CHAIN CRISIS.
āļø The Root Cause: Sub-suppliers, from engine and structural component manufacturers to cabin interior outfitters, are struggling with timely delivery due to post-COVID recovery and a lack of skilled labor.
āļø The Result: New aircraft deliveries are delayed, forcing airlines to rely on older fleets. Added pressure for quality control (especially at Boeing) further decelerates the pace.
Stability is taking precedence over speed in the industry.
