FARNBOROUGH REPORT

摘要

The Farnborough International Airshow took place over July 16 to 22 and saw the value of deals reach $192bn, $67.5bn up on the event two years ago. There was also a rise in trade visitors of nearly 10% with more than 80,000 trade visitors passing through the gates. Over 1,400 commercial aircraft were ordered at the show with Boeing coming out on top between the industry's two heavyweights. The US manufacturer secured commitments for 673 aircraft, while the equivalent figure for Airbus was 431. The aircraft static park featured more exhibits than for many years, although this made photography more difficult as many were parked close to each other.
