Boeing resumes deliveries to China: US planemaker Boeing has restarted China-bound plane deliveries, dispatching a 737 MAX aircraft last Friday earmarked for delivery to Boeing’s finishing center in Zhoushan, Bloomberg reported last week, citing data from flight tracker Flightradar24. This specific aircraft had previously been sent to China in March but was returned when Beijing ordered domestic airlines to refrain from acquiring or receiving pre-ordered aircraft-related equipment or parts from US companies amid ensuing trade tensions with the US. The country reportedly rescinded earlier in May.

ALSO- Beijing mulls early July Airbus order: China is looking to place an order of between 200 - 500 aircraft of both narrowbody and widebody planes, Bloomberg reported last week, citing unnamed sources. The order — potentially the largest Airbus order for China — could be placed as soon as next month during a planned diplomatic meeting between Beijing officials and European leaders.
