You are right, henge, the order apparently is not included in 2015 results.

It is interesting - order for 6 planes arrived but day to day there is 6 less undelivered planes on the web !
Was there 12 undisclosed and it is now only 6 AirChina ?

Boeings updates their order book on a weekly basis, perhaps there were 6 deliveries in the last week of December?

I was on the BO web and there were the deliveries not yet, but the orders were complete up DEC 31. So the unfulfilled numbers are up to before publishing the DEC numbers. Anyway there was really 6 77W deliveries in DEC i.e. the explanation is there - no mess. Also the 6 Chinese orders are not yet in the numbers downloaded by XWB - so funny as it is those 224 777-classics are valid as of now. |

Too many 777-300ER-orders are not good for the 747-8. Air China certainly is a possible top-off candidate for more Intercontinental orders. Hopefully they still need more capacity.

Naaah - the JUMBO is dying out. I doubt we will see any new 8i order. We might see some 8f, but how many ? Also out of those 13 there are 2 for ARIK air + 4 for TRANSAERO - i.e. in reality there is only 6 for KOREAN + 1 BBJ. (Is this BBJ for real ?) Up to that we have many white tails - there was discussion some time back if it is 9 or 11 so ! I wonder if those white tails will ever go out completely - if for really small money. To sum it up in reality there is not 20 unfilled but 13-14 only. If we count those white tails and say they would be modified for current customers there is some + - 3-5 to produce. There is the Russian CARGO MoU but ? OK - 2 orders for AirForce1 will arrive and else ? |

The new AF 1 will be an order for three IIRC.
The 747 needs and deserves freighter orders. Where are UPS and Fedex when you need them?
