This year's Farnborough air show was not a vintage year for aircraft orders, analysts say, a gloomy outlook clouded by Brexit and further darkening as European giant Airbus slashed output of its A380 superjumbo. Airbus' announcement late Tuesday that the Franco-German planemaker would halve A380 production to one a month from 2018 caused some turbulence at the show, but chief executive Tom Enders hoped the cutbacks would last "just a year or two". Both Airbus and Boeing were nonetheless bullish after a fleet of orders principally from Asia and low-cost carriers.
