Airbus delivered 60 aircrafts in March, bringing first-quarter deliveries to 114 jets, down 16% from the same point last year, the European planemaker said on Thursday.

Boeing outperformed Airbus in both net orders and deliveries in the first two months of the year, driven by widebody strength. Boeing secured 61% of net orders and 72% of order value, reflecting robust demand and a favorable order mix. Delivery growth at Boeing reached 9% year-over-year, while Airbus deliveries fell 17%, hampered by Pratt & Whitney GTF engine constraints.

The outgoing head of Airbus Helicopters called for deeper European collaboration in defence procurement and warned that fragmenting programmes into national projects would drive costs beyond what countries could afford.

Finnair said on Monday it will renew its European fleet with an order for 18 E195-E2 narrow-body aircraft from Brazilian manufacturer Embraer , moving away from its current provider Airbus.

Airbus is ramping up pressure on U.S. engine maker Pratt & Whitney by pursuing potential damages in an escalating dispute over late engine shipments as it struggles to lift aircraft production, two people familiar with the matter said.

Leasing giant AerCap said on Wednesday that it had agreed to buy 100 Airbus A320neo-family jets.
