Widebody deliveries 3rd Quarter 2010

TOTAL : 54

BOEING
767 = 3
777 = 20
TOTAL = 23 (43%)

AIRBUS
A330 = 23
A340 = 1
A380 = 7
TOTAL = 31 (57%)

A330-300 = 11
777F = 10
A330-200 = 7
A380-800 = 7
777-300ER = 5
A330F = 4
777-200LR = 3
777-200ER = 2
767-300ER = 2
A340-600 = 1
767-300F = 1
A330MRTT = 1

For me, the big story is the number of freighters delivered – 14 out of 54 (26%). Obviously, the A330F has just come on stream but more than half of all 777Fs delivered this year have been delivered in the past quarter and half of all 777s delivered in this quarter were freighters.

As for engines…

Total BOEING engines = 46
GE = 46 (100%)

Total AIRBUS engines = 78
GE = 6 (8%)
PW = 10 (13%)
EA = 16 (21%)
RR = 46 (59%)

Total engines 3rdQ = 124
GE = 52 (42%)
RR = 46 (37%)
EA = 16 (13%)
PW = 10 (8%)

One final point: Airbus have delivered 80 widebodies to date. If they can deliver 20 more in the 4th Quarter it will be the first time in their history they will have delivered 100 widebodies in a year. (Their previous best was 97 in 2008.)

PM, thanks for the update. Do you have a similar analysis for the 3 quarters ytd running totals?

Quoting PM (Thread starter): A380 = 7

This is the big story in my eyes. Compare that to 2008 (12) and 2009 (10). The production has really picked up some speed.

Quoting PM (Thread starter): For me, the big story is the number of freighters delivered – 14 out of 54 (26%). Obviously, the A330F has just come on stream but more than half of all 777Fs delivered this year have been delivered in the past quarter and half of all 777s delivered in this quarter were freighters.

Right. There is a big growth potential and a big replacement potential in the freighter market. Once there will be enough modern and efficient A332Fs and 777Fs around, this will add pressure on users of way older planes to replace theirs. Sad for enthusiasts, good for the environment.

Thanks PM. I don't know if this is a trend but it seems as if Airbus is taking a hold on widebodies, both in deliveries and net orders.

When the B787 line comes online things will probably change, but probably not much before 2012 though.

Quoting AABB777 (Reply 4): Do we know who took delivery of these birds?

Certainly. Check on the Airbus and Boeing websites and the details are there.

It seems really strange to see Boeing wide body deliveries without a 747. I know this will change, but I still don't like it!!

Quoting col (Reply 6): It seems really strange to see Boeing wide body deliveries without a 747.

I know what you mean. But the 767 (first delivery: August 1982) soldiers on.

The last 747 delivery was in November last year so there will certainly be well over a year without deliveries and that will include a full calendar year (2010).

Has any other plane had a comparable hiatus in deliveries?
