Deliveries,Down,16%

PARIS — Airbus delivered 53 aircraft in May, down 16 percent from the same month last year and bringing the number of airplanes handed over to customers since January 1 to 256, the plane-maker said on Thursday.

It is targeting 800 deliveries for the year.Demand for aircraft is strong because air travel is staging a strong recovery at the same time as supplies of new airplanes are tight, notably at US plane-maker Boeing.Reuters reported on Monday that Airbus , which has headquarters in France, had delivered around 50 aircraft in May . Industry sources said it had been targeting closer to 60 deliveries for the month.

'While May was affected by a high number of weekday holidays in France, where Airbus has two out of eight narrow-body assembly lines, Airbus must achieve 'significant catch-up' to reach stable deliveries for the quarter, Lemarie said in a note.That comes as Airbus is also facing new pressure on the underlying production of single-aisle jets because of parts and labor shortages, Reuters reported last week.
