Jetliner Production Totals

- question from Rick Steadman

We don't have data for the precise time period requested, but the following is the up-to-date production totals for Boeing commercial aircraft as of November 2002. For aircraft still in production, we have data for the number of orders received as well as how many aircraft have been delivered out of that total. Models no longer in production are indicated by the total number delivered and how many remain in service, if that number is available.
