For Boeing, the Paris Air Show has been a chance to listen to the industry, one Boeing executive says. "What do they think of us? It doesn’t matter what we think of us.”

Airbus secured more aircraft orders on Wednesday, raising its total to $21 billion at this week’s subdued Paris Air Show, while rival Boeing opted not to announce new sales following last week’s Air India 787 crash.

The Paris Air Show witnesses Airbus securing significant aircraft orders. This includes deals with Starlux Airlines, MNG Airlines, EgyptAir, and LOT Polish Airlines. Boeing maintains a low profile after the Air India Flight 171 crash.
