Seems Boeing and Qatar have reversed themselves.

Maybe Qatar is rethink this thing after seeing the New A350 family.

I think this announcement from Airbus will confirm the Boeing order:

It appears Christian Streiff is unable to confirm production will commence until a firm decision to proceed is made in October.

"I will seek approval from shareholders for an industrial launch in October."

a further note, Qatar delayed the announcement due to an illness in their negotiating party, not because of the Airbus announcement.

I guess this order was never firm to begin with, and Boeing posted it on its site as a UFO. But Qatar and Boeing are still talking about the deal, Gosh and I thought Boeing didn't count order until they were firm.

The Middle East pavilion at Farnborough 2006 is triple the size of the launch edition which burst onto the global aerospace segment two years ago. Companies from Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Jordan and Lebanon are featured in the Farnborough 2006 pavilion.

Aeroflot management has decided to go with 787 possibly up to 30 aircraft with options, All that awaits is Putin's signature, things went well with George W.

Where did you get the information from Aeroflot? If that is the case, that would be huge for Boeing.
