Airbus and Spirit AeroSystems Discuss Potential Acquisition of Belfast Plant

Airbus and Spirit AeroSystems are in discussions about the potential acquisition of a plant in Belfast, Northern Ireland, where Spirit manufactures wings for the A220 aircraft. However, a deal is unlikely to materialize soon. Despite market fluctuations, Airbus secures commitments for helicopter orders and enters into in-service contracts, while Emirates Airlines expresses doubts about Boeing’s ability to deliver aircraft by 2025.
