Boeing added 32 new planes and has 862 gross and 855 net new orders. Still don't think they'll get to 1002, they'd need over 150 orders in three weeks.
Boeing has 78 748 orders so far including the 5 748F for KE which have yet to be firmed.

This airplane has been around for what, 6 months? It already has half the orders the 380 has since it launched 4 years ago.....fantastic!

I don't care what you think of my opinion. It's my opinion, so have a nice day :)

Anyone care to guess when B748 orders will surpass A388's?

They have the 25 orders from korean air , 60 737's from air berlin and a few more 787 orders that have been announced but not been firmed up so thats 85 minimum aircrafts that have been announced but not firmed up !!

What I like is the fact they specify (text highlights and comments) the order changes in their weekly report.
I think they have been paying attention to us A.netters...

NYC you underestimate the power of the force... Bringiton reminds us that Boeing only actually needs 65 orders to make and just to firm up those other 85 this year. It COULD happen.

Q1'07. Its a done deal.
Quoting DAL767400ER (Reply 16): Though they have had that feature for quite a few weeks already
More than a few weeks... (maybe you were being sarcastic?)

Hey I'd be first one jump up and pump my fist in the air. I hope they can firm up 150 orders. Where's China when you need them?

Quoting Solnabo (Reply 4): No, "this airplane has been around for what, 6 months", more like 36 years only streched version and new engines...
That´s not a woooow factor IYAM!
Wait a minute... your not impressed that a engineering design that is 36 years is still not competitive in todays market? I'm sure that if/when 'A' had made the same achievement, you'd be filled with pride. However, since this is someone else's baby, you must knock it down.
What else from the late 1960's early 1970's is still being remodeled/updated and sold for MILLIONS of dollars a copy?
Or.. am I just reading your statement incorrectly?

The model report now shows on the same day in November the booking of 8 300ER and 11 F UFOs. Is this new or do we already know about this?
25 N328KF: It's not dismal by any means. We're at 60 777s so far this year (with an order or two yet to be firmed.) That's at least average. Of the years the 77
26 Glom: Oh yeah. Well it was a dismal first half year and a pretty good second half year.
27 Katekebo: ??? 70 firm orders - not bad at all. I think Airbus would jump with joy if they could sell as many A340 - 15 only so far (including the LH order).

29 Reggaebird: That is definitely a WOW factor for a 36yo machine. Airbus tried to do it with the A330 (much younger than the 747) and failed miserably.
31 Bringiton: GECAS orders have allready been Listed as UFO's
32 PanAmOldDC8: I agree, but don't think the 380 will last more than 20 years before it is scrapped. I still think that the smaller wide bodies are the way of the fu

36 JAAlbert: wow, 144 787s for the year to date. That is a huge amount of widebodies ordered in one year. What type widebody holds the record for selling the most

42 Zvezda: Net, after cancellations, I expect B747-8 SuperJumbo orders to exceed WhaleJet orders sometime in the second half of 2007.
44 SonicAirlines: I wonder if DJ will factor into the Boeing end of year orders ? They must be close to a decision on their long haul metal by now.
