The numbers of the year were closed 2021 and the competition of Boeing versus Airbus still red hot which delivered more aircraft last year?
Aviation is not just competition between airlines, the manufacturers they also have a major fight for every potential customer, new and current.
closing the 2021 and starting the 2022 we could see how Airbus gained new customers that they were bigger with Boeing and in the meantime Boeing won another what was it 100% Airbus.
With this context, we are going to analyze how many planes were delivered by one or the other manufacturer during the year 2021.
Boeing versus Airbus
The world needs new planes, especially the large airlines, who are the main customers of both manufacturers, permanently renew their fleets, giving way to the market for aircraft that are a few years old and in good condition for airlines in the making or growing.
But, how did each company do?
Boeing
During all the 2021, Boeing delivered 340 total planes, of which 263 corresponded to airplanes Boeing 737 from the NG and MAX family:
| Boeing 737 | 263 |
| Boeing 747 | 7 |
| Boeing 767 | 32 |
| Boeing 777 | 24 |
| Boeing 787 | 14 |
| TOTAL | 340 |
The North American manufacturer has seen a slowdown in the delivery of aircraft of the type Boeing 787 in the face of problems in its production observed by the FAA, which has undoubtedly affected his performance last year, Meanwhile he Boeing 737 MAX has gradually recovered its delivery rate.
These data do not include military aircraft delivered during the past year that total 169 additional units delivered.
Airbus
During the 2021, Airbus dominated global deliveries with 611 aircraft delivered worldwide, where 483 aircraft correspond to the Airbus A320 family and its different versions.
| Familia Airbus A220 | 50 |
| Familia Airbus 320 | 483 |
| Familia Airbus 330 | 18 |
| Familia Airbus 350 | 55 |
| Airbus A380 | 5 |
| TOTAL | 611 |
When comparing it with the 2020, Airbus He delivered 45 aircraft more than said year where the total were 566 aircraft for direct and indirect customers, although now facing problems with the Airbus 350 that could slow down deliveries for this 2022.

This does not imply risk of the units that are already certified and flying. ??
JIMMY
Yes, there have been stops on land due to the issue.
Hello there:
Certification issues 787?
I understand that if you are flying, it is because you have passed a certification process.
could you explain please?
JIMMY
Of course, What happens is that the FAA detected anomalies in the process of certification and construction of the same, that is why the new planes to be delivered are still on the ground.
Hello there
I have several questions:
There were deliveries of 747, which airlines required them ?
What problems does the A350 have? ?
What production problems has the 787 ?
Greetings
JIMMY
thanks jimmy. Let's go one by one hahahaha
The 747 have been for UPS.
The A350 has paint problems, there is a lawsuit by Qatar Airways.
The 787 has certification issues and the FAA has suspended deliveries.
Undoubtedly the A320 was vital for Airbus if it had not sold absolutely all its A320 family aircraft it would be more or less tied with Boeing who undoubtedly lost in this 2021, It is a historic company and I hope it returns to its good level in the 2022. Good post.
