European planemaker Airbus is talking to suppliers about the possibility of raising production of its popular A320 family to 50 jets a month as early as 2017, narrowing a gap with rival Boeing (BA.N), a senior industry source said on Tuesday. Airbus has asked suppliers to be ready to adjust to production of 48 aircraft a month during 2016, rising to 50 a month in 2017, the source said, asking not to be named. There can be a lag between supplier schedules and aircraft production. No final decision has been taken, and it remains unclear, following an internal debate at the planemaker over the timing of output increases, whether Airbus Group (AIR.PA) will announce new levels alongside its 2014 results on Friday.
