Airbus reportedly notifies customers of further delays in A350 deliveries

Glonghui, May 21 — According to Reuters, three industry sources revealed that Airbus has notified some customers that deliveries of the A350 aircraft will be further delayed until later this decade. The main cause of the delivery delays is the continued issues in obtaining key fuselage components from the former Spirit AeroSystems factory in Kinston, North Carolina. Additionally, cargo doors for the new A350 freighter manufactured by Airbus in Spain are also facing some interruptions.
