I see on a Google's news link today it has been reported that Airbus has maintained its position as the worlds biggest plane maker in 2010 beating its US rival Boeing with a final delivery total of 510 aircraft and 574 orders won in the year (worth $84bn).
Boeing delivered 462 and won a further 530 orders.
The company went on to quote that it hired 2,200 employees last year bringing its total to 52,500 and has plans for up to 3,000 more this year as it ramps up production.
All promising signs for the aerospace market and its supply chain of companies. I already hold R-R and note that General Electric are reporting back to the market this week.
