GAMA Reports Third Quarter Deliveries

It's still not very pretty. Shipments of new aircraft worldwide are down after three quarters this year, even compared to a pretty sad state of affairs this time last year. If there's any consolation, the rest of the world is doing a little worse than American manufacturers.

Nope. Come to think of it, that's not much consolation. Here are the GAMA figures just released:
