Airbus should achieve a total delivery of around 17 A350 this year.
Based on the article “Bjorn’s Corner: Boeing’s 787 and Airbus’ 350 programs, a snapshot” published in Leeham News.
That's not what was promised. 3 per month from the end of 2014-then 5 per month from end of 2015 and 10 per month from end of 2017. So far this year we have two deliveries. By December it should be 36 as promised. Long Long Long way to go-I don't see this as something to celebrate. Still no announcement about the A350-1000.
