Spirit deliveries per quarter were still around 150, no drop to 120. Q4 data will be disclosed in 2 days. I think too, the 80 still on site count as delivered. |

I wonder, will we see that day when Boeing will pay for customers to clean up the stock just to save the reputation?

'Qantas (QF, Sydney Kingsford Smith) will consider the B737 MAX in its future narrowbody aircraft procurement plan and could benefit from lower prices offered by Boeing due to the type's poor reputation, Qantas Group Chief Executive Alan Joyce told The Sydney Morning Herald. "If you look at it from an opportunity point of view, given the aircraft is going to be very safe, what will Boeing do to get the safest airline in the world to buy the aircraft?," he said, hinting that the manufacturer could offer better prices than Airbus.'
'Given the aircraft is going to be very safe'. What a wierd anticipated sentiment from an airline man; and by using those words there is a possible implication to a reader that other aircraft they operate won't be quite as safe! To be that certain of the outcome he will need to be convinced that the authorities have been absolutely uninfluenced by Boeing this time and that training /simulators are spot on. As a potential passenger, I'll be looking to see what jet is flying on any potential trips and then make my decision but at present I wouldn't go with a MAX until others have tested it for at least a year I think.

It's not really a surprise for Qantas to consider the MAX for short haul replacements as they currently operate 80 B737-800s 😉
