Boeing's April Order Report

The thumbnail chart below is the tip of the Iceberg. Boeing is going to have a robust order year. The single-aisle types should keep pace with what Airbus rounds-up. The widebody types are about to explode in numbers before years end.  An example of this statement is there are many 787 orders in negotiation and the "Airshow in July may sort out some of that speculation. Boeing should book another 50 787 widebodies alone at the airshow before any surprises are added. The 777X may rear up with another big customer announcement. The chart below nets 268 over-all orders for the year which is 33%  passed.  Boeing is on pace for an 800 order year.  Judging by a historical slow first quarter for orders and a robust December order count, the year could bear out 900 airframes booked by December 31, 2018. A larger number could be reached if the 797 is announced.
