New Jetliner from Boeing

Built to compete with the Airbus A300-200, the 7E7 will eventually replace Boeing 757 and 767 jetliners, and production will begin in 2006. Its first flight is expected in 2007, with initial deliveries and entry into service in 2008 after certification. They will be built at Boeing-Everett in Washington, north of Seattle. The 200-seat (three-class) to 300-seat (single-class) 7E7s will fly routes between 3,500 and 8,500 nautical miles (6,500 to 16,000 kilometers) and will be powered by two General Electric GE Next Generation or two Rolls-Royce Trent 1000 engines (depending on airline preference), which can be interchanged at any time because of the built-in standard engine interface. The 7E7 will cruise at 0.85 Mach and will burn 20 percent less fuel than today’s jetliners of its size.

Spotlight on industry: The Boeing Company

Finneran: Two factors have really led to the situation you describe. First, we in the defense industry realized that no company has all the expertise needed to provide the capabilities our customers require at the cost our customers can afford. Teaming is the only way to leverage strengths from across the industry to achieve everybody’s goal– the best equipment for America and its allies at affordable prices.

Boeing outselling Airbus planes

Airbus has been fighting to win back support for its entry in the lucrative market for medium-size long-range jets where it is up against the Dreamliner since it was forced into a redesign of the A350 by unhappy customers.

The most vocal of those was Stephen Udvar-Hazy, chief executive of Los Angeles-based International Lease Finance Corp., the world’s largest airline leasing company. ILFC’s deal with Boeing, announced at the Paris Air Show in Le Bourget, north of the French capital, makes the company the biggest customer for the 787 with 74 firm orders.
