Boeing Co.’s beleaguered 737 Max absorbed another blow as Air Canada chopped an order for the grounded aircraft by 11 jets, or 18% of the original deal.
The Canadian carrier still has 26 of the planes on order, according to data released Wednesday on Boeing’s website for the month of February. That’s in addition to the 24 Max that Air Canada received before regulators banned the jetliner from commercial flight after two fatal accidents.
