Boeing to launch re-engined 737
Although it has recently hinted at launching an all-new narrowbody aircraft in the near future, Boeing now appears set to launch a re-engined version of the 737 following a major commitment from American Airlines in late July.
AA announced a historic order for up to 460 narrowbodies, split between Airbus and Boeing. Comprised of 130 current generation A320s and 130 A320 New Engine Option (NEO)s, the order also included 100 Boeing 737NGs and an intention to order “100 of Boeing’s expected new evolution of the 737NG, with a new engine that would offer even more significant fuel-efficiency gains over today’s models.”
