Deliveries reached 142 aircraft, confirming a Reuters report on the quarterly total last week and leaving the France-based company ahead of U.S. rival Boeing (NYSE:BA), which delivered 83 commercial airplanes during the same period.

Airbus said it had won 170 new orders in the first quarter, with no cancellations.
