Record plane order books turn focus to jetmakers' production
Analysts say Paris Airshow on June 15-21 will likely be about the production process, viability of the supply chain
Paris
AFTER years of big-ticket plane orders, this week's Paris Airshow will see rather fewer multi-billion-dollar deals and rather more nervous expressions as planemakers face the daunting task of producing US$1.8 trillion of jets already sold.
The world's biggest aerospace gathering will still have its fair share of announcements, including a potential 100-plane leasing order for Boeing, as well as the showmanship that goes with any public contest with European arch-rival Airbus.
