European aerospace giant Airbus said Monday it booked 1,109 aircraft orders in 2017 and a record 718 deliveries.
In terms of orders, Airbus overtook arch-rival Boeing, which booked 912 orders last year. But the European planemaker still lagged behind the US group in terms of deliveries, after Boeing handed over 763 aircraft to its customers in 2017.
