At stake is a forecast global demand for more than 23,000 aircraft in the 737/A320 market segment over the next 20 years at a value of nearly $2 trillion. And while the decision to commit to the MAX was a change of direction from an all-new option, (which Boeing seemed to favour as recently as the Paris Airshow in June), Boeing has been seriously studying both new aircraft and 737 re-engine concepts since 2006.
