And since the economies are booming and everyone has money to spend, Boeing could not have chosen a better time. Roll Eyes

Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.

Economy or not, you should note that many major carriers are beginning the cycle of phasing out older, less efficient aircraft for newer, high tech aircraft such as the 787. I would say this is a great time to be putting the aircraft on the market.

Maybe they could recycle their older planes? It would really save allot.
