Right to Work states should land these non Obama related jobs. Oh I mean't non NRLB related jobs. The credit for this order I'm sure goes to the hard work that Boeing did to convince Lion Air that they have a better product!
oops cant edit, but mistyped its 900ERs not 700.
Is any of you fully convinced that this monster order will be totally completed. Not me. Just take a look at theirwroute structure, it is 90% domestic and the rates are 50-60% of those in the U.S. This "order" will face the same feat of that other monster orders from American 230 Boeing 737s of various sub-types and another 230 Airbues 320s of various marks. Mark my words: much a do about only a few new aircraft.
One thing about it my friend, the truth will be told when it comes time to plunk down earnest money to make these firm orders.
christmas shopping spree
its the 737MAX and some 737-700ERs.
