波音首席执行官Dave Calhoun最近表示，175个国家已经允许737 MAX 恢复运营。他预计这款飞机将在年底前获得中国民航局的批准。Boeing Co (BA.US) is reportedly in advanced talks with Akasa, India's new low-cost carrier, on the sale of 737 MAX jets. Boeing Co may sell as many as 80 aircraft, and delivery will begin within seven months at the earliest.
Airbus still dominates the Indian market. According to the report, Akasa Airlines has also held talks with Airbus on its A320neo aircraft, but it will take several years to deliver, which gives Boeing Co an advantage.
Meanwhile, a 737 MAX test plane reportedly flew in China today, and Boeing Co hopes to end its nearly two-and-a-half-year grounding in China.
Dave Calhoun, chief executive of Boeing Co, said recently that 737 MAX had been allowed to resume operations in 175 countries. He expects the aircraft to be approved by the Civil Aviation Administration of China by the end of the year.
As of press time, Boeing rose 0.49% to $236.94 before trading.
