737 Max cancellation
I see a Saudi loco has cancelled an order for the 737Max and switched to Airbus. Only 30 aircraft plus follow-ups, though. Probably FR will take the production slots.
Re: 737 Max cancellation
What worries me is that this flood of orders will place Airbus under pressure to increase output.
Will they too start to cut corners?

Re: 737 Max cancellation
I believe they are taking the orders from their parent company, Saudi Arabian Airlines. It will be interesting to see what SAA does now - is this part of an arm twist on the Americans? Perhaps there are geopolitical considerations, it is the Sandpit, after all. Or they could just order more MAXs for SAA later, at a lower price of course!
