ICAO, Annual Report 2024 - The World of Air Transport in 2024 (1 Sep 2025)
“The world's major manufacturers delivered 1,114 new commercial aircraft in 2024 and recorded 1,380 new aircraft net orders.”
  1. Step 01

    Take ICAO’s figure for 2024: 1,114 aircraft.

  2. Step 02

    Spread it evenly over a year of 31,557,600 seconds (365.25 days): about 3.05 aircraft per day.

  3. Step 03

    Count from 00:00 UTC on 1 January of the current year, so the number resets every New Year.

Why this can't be exact
Real activity is not spread evenly: it clusters in working hours, weekdays and seasons, so the count runs ahead or behind the true figure at any given moment. It runs at the 2024 pace until a figure for the current year is published. Digits beyond the first two or three are the model ticking, not extra precision.
