Airbus wins 32 orders January-March

Airbus won 32 aircraft orders and delivered 125 in Q1. After adjusting for cancellations it had 10 net orders. Airbus's March tally included two A380s from an unidentified customer, although it said Air Austral cancelled an order for two of the aircraft. The two deals are not related, a person familiar with the matter said. Airbus expects to deliver more than 650 planes and has forecast that orders will outstrip deliveries for the seventh year running. Rival Boeing said it had 140 gross orders between January 1 and April 5, or 122 after adjusting for cancellations. The US plane maker on Thursday reported 176 Q1 deliveries, down 4.3% from the same period last year. 737 deliveries were stable at 121 aircraft.<br/>
