Indian vendors of the two major commercial aircraft manufacturers, Airbus and Boeing, have been asked to slow down deliveries as the aircraft makers are set to reduce production by nearly half.
Indian vendors like Aequs and Dynamatic, which make key products for Airbus, have started reducing production by one-third, top company executives told BusinessLine. An HAL spokesperson said the company is monitoring the situation and will decide whether it should cut down production soon.
Apart from manufacturing doors for A320, the public sector HAL supplies flaperons for Boeing 777 aircraft. The flaperons are used to control the roll and as a flap to control a plane’s lift.
