Every little bit helps Boeing.

And this is on Forbes' website:

SG Cowen suggested buying Boeing (nyse: BA - news - people ) shares for "fair value" potential of $88 by late 2007.

SG Cowen said Boeing is a play on the recovering commercial aerospace cycle and has healthy new product momentum, cash redeployment potential, and a new chief executive "with skill sets to take [Boeing] to the next level." Near-term catalysts for Boeing include an expected 747 Advanced launch decision "in the next month or so" and third-quarter results, although "labor negotiations are an issue."

The research firm said its 2006 and 2007 earnings-per-share estimates of $3.35 and $4.50, respectively, have upside given the vigor in aircraft demand and Boeing's "apparent conservatism" in guidance.

How can they still have eight MD-11s "on order" ?

They still build MD-11? I thought that plane was closed down to new production long ago.

Somebody needs to send this to that Branson guy that owns Virgin Airlines... he said a while back that Boeing would never sell another 747 after Airbus came out with the A380.

There's no substitute for the 747, and I bet these eight 747's will accomplish something that the A380 will never be able to... make a profit for their company.

I couldn't tell from the article whether these will be 747-400F's or 747-400ERF's.

If you want on or off my aerospace ping list, please contact me by Freep mail not by posting to this thread.

UPS Orders Eight Boeing 747-400 Freighters

Unfortunately, they were shipped via USPS and got lost in the mail.

My mom discovered tv shopping. This is why UPS needs more airplanes.

Pretty good order considering they're around $250 million each.


SEATTLE, Aug. 17, 2005 -- Boeing and UPS announced today that the package delivery carrier has ordered eight Boeing 747-400 Freighters for delivery in 2007 and 2008. The 747-400F can carry a maximum 120 tons of cargo, 25 tons more cargo than the 747-200 Freighters currently in the UPS fleet. In addition to the higher payload capability of 250,000 pounds (113 tonnes), the 747-400F consumes 15 percent less fuel than its predecessor, allowing the airplane to fly farther and to more destinations.
