June 12 (Reuters) - GE Aerospace said on Thursday

it is postponing its investor day previously scheduled for

Tuesday, June 17, to coincide with the Paris Airshow, following

the crash of an Air India jetliner, which killed almost all

passengers on board.

The decision comes as some delegates said the crash is

casting a somber mood over the world's largest airshow. GE

Aerospace says it plans to give a financial update later this

month.
