So Boeing is beginning to hand out cheap 787s as compensation for the MAX? Sacrificing margins on the only money-maker they currently have? Might assume that a few deals like this could help them get back to rate 14 on the Dreamliner. Offering the extra 2 Planes every month at a significantly disco...
Jump to postWouldn’t it be more logical for Emirates to take the -10 instead of -9? Seems to me it cover a lot of their routes including all Europe and they can use A350/777x for the longer routes.

Jump to postIs anyone else actually questioning wether the FSA would be poorly timed for a pre-2030 launch date? If NMA is scraped, Boeing is either forced into FSA immediately or has to cut engineering headcount for the next 5-10 years and wait.
