Quoting WINGS (Reply 1): always appreciate to look at these numbers
Me too.
Quoting WINGS (Reply 1): I find the following particularly interesting and Ironic at the same time.

Airbus - 3,663
Boeing - 3,661
In fact, you can see the parity right throughout all numbers. Especially if you consider the A330/A340 as one family and compare it to a 767/777 cluster.
I think we will have announcements from both manufacturers, but the difference will be that most of Boeing's announcements will already have been booked as UFO in the previous months, whereas Airbus will give us more new orders, previously not listed at all...
Just one example: EY: I expect them to come forward saying they are behind the UFO order of 35 787s, as well as ordering more A320s and A380s (both of which aren't on the books yet).

I agree with you on this. Plus this order is also an order for 10 77W.

That's my guess as well and, as FRNT787 pointed out, the same customer has 10 77Ws on order.
