Those were probably ordered a long time ago as an undisclosed customer.

Only explanation would be that they do believe to win the EK mysterious A359/B787-10 order ?

Boeing's order forecast, as published by AW, breaks down as follows :
737 324
747 14
767 21
777 88
787 88
TOTAL 535
I find it quite surprising that, when they made that prediction, they expected to sell so few 737. They now already sold 297! There is something wrong there, in my opinion !
By contrast, widebody sales forecasts look optimistic. If 787 predictions are based on Boeing winning EK's order, then the methodology is underwhelming. When two competitors have approximately even chances to win an order, I would expect each of them to include only 50% of the prize in its forecast (in this case, 70 x 50% = 35), not to mention the risk that the timeline of the deal be moved further right.

Philidor, more probable to me is that those numbers are only BO "wish" or "dream"  |
