Airbus faces slower-than-expected deliveries in September after a glitch affecting A321neo jets, two industry sources said. One source said 20 A321neo jets had been pushed into the fourth quarter partly because of the quality issue; safety is not affected, and several airlines continue to accept the aircraft. Airbus said there was no change to its full-year targets.
