Boeing expects to finalise contracts with India’s SpiceJet and Indonesia’s Lion Air to launch its 737-900X higher-capacity version of the Next Generation 737 later this summer. It will review the business case for the 747 Advanced, a stretched version of the aircraft with 787-type engines, soon, with a launch decision coming towards year-end. If launched it would enter service in late 2008 or early 2009.
