Boeing easily beat rival Airbus in orders for new planes last month, but Chicago-based Boeing trailed its European rival in delivering planes to airline customers. Boeing said that it took orders for 31 planes in July while 17 others were canceled, resulting in a net gain of 14. That compared with two orders for Airbus. It was Boeing’s sixth straight month of positive net orders after seeing cancellations exceed orders for most of 2020. Boeing has reported 270 net orders so far in 2021. Brazil’s Gol ordered nine 737 Max jets last month and Dallas-based Southwest Airlines ordered six. Boeing delivered 28 planes in July, including nine 737 Max jets sent to Irish airline Ryanair. That fell short of Airbus, which delivered 47 planes last month. For the year, Boeing has delivered 184 planes, more than all of 2020. This despite the halt in shipping its 787 jet because of production flaws in the fuselage and nose. Last month, the company said it will cut production of 787s. Deliveries are cri...

The Malaysia Ukraine Crash   Ukraine SU-25 Fighter Return To Base with Missing Missiles There have been many questions surrounding the Malaysia Crash in July 2014, and the blame have been on everyone yet the Ukraine Government still have refused to release Radar Data. But now some of the people behind it have started to come out talking. An airbase employee, who claims to be an eyewitness, said on July 17 that three Ukrainian combat jets took off, and that one of them, an Su-25 fighter Jet, was carrying air-to-air missiles. “After a while only one of the jets (of the three) returned, it was the fighter jet which had had those missiles.

The airbase worker said he remembered the Su-25 pilot saying “the wrong plane” and "the plane was ...
