Boeing received orders for only four new planes in May—and for the second straight month, none for its best-selling 737 Max, as fallout continues from the blowout of a side panel on a Max during a flight in January.
The results released today compared unfavourably with Europe's Airbus, which reported orders for 27 new planes in May.
Boeing also saw Aerolineas Argentinas cancel an order for a single Max jet, bringing its net sales for the month to three.
The dismal results followed poor figures for April, when Boeing reported seven sales — none of them for the Max.
