Boeing expects to split narrowbody market with Airbus to 2020
Boeing Commercial Airplanes VP marketing Randy Tinseth, via his official blog, reported (25-May-2016) he expects the narrowbody aircraft orders and delivery market will be split roughly evenly between Airbus and Boeing until around 2020. Mr Tinseth said Boeing, "needs to go to higher rates" on narrowbody production to satisfy existing demand and the production backlog for the 737 NG and 737 MAX.
