At the Paris Air Show on Wednesday, Airbus secured its second A350 freighter deal and Embraer announced the first operator for its regional E190 converted freighter. The post Airbus, Embraer unveil freighter orders at Paris Air Show appeared first on FreightWaves.

Airbus SE wrapped up the Paris Air Show with more orders for its advanced A350 model, making a clean sweep at the event after perennial rival Boeing Co. chose to postpone any announcements following a fatal crash a few days before the expo.
