Air India of Tata Group is facing a serious problem these days. Which is likely to have an impact on their orders for Boeing planes. According to the information, Tata Group's Air India company is facing a shortage in Boeing's production. Due to this, it is being estimated that there will be a delay in the completion of the order of fighter jets.
Air India had placed an order for 190 737 Boeing aircraft. Out of which the order for 50 aircraft was to be completed by this year. But, looking at the present situation, it seems that their order will not be fulfilled this year also.
Air India is struggling with this problem
Incorrect fitting and installation of the 737 Max planes during the production of Boeing aircraft is delaying the production of the aircraft. The fuselage made by Spirit Aerosystems was wrongly fitted in the aircraft manufactured after the year 2019. Now it will take more time to correct these aircraft. This will delay production for further deliveries.
The company ordered so many planes
Air India has ordered 210 (A 320/321) Airbus and 40 (A 350) aircraft from Airbus. Boeing has ordered 190 737 Max (single aisle aircraft), 20 787 ie wide body aircraft and 10 (777-9) ie wide body aircraft. Please tell, in this order, the option of 50 Xtra and 737 Max and 20 787-9 aircraft has to be selected.
Boeing said this
On this whole issue, Boeing said that the process of retrofitting could affect the delivery of 737 Max in the coming days. This problem is being seen in both production and storage. That's why it will affect such a large number of 737 MAX jets. Boeing has talked to the FAA about this problem. Along with this, work is being done for inspection and replacement of fittings where necessary. At the same time, a veteran of US Aerospace has said in a statement that an update will be given on the delivery of Boeing aircraft in the next few weeks.
