Boeing says taking 'next
step' toward launching 777X jet
SEATTLE - Boeing Co. said it is
taking the "next step" toward launching its long-awaited 777X widebody jet by
discussing price, schedule and other details with potential customers.
The move follows a board meeting
on Monday and means the commercial airplane division can begin taking orders
from airlines.
"We are taking the next step when
it comes to engaging customers on the 777X," spokesman Doug Alder told Reuters.
The company has "begun to discuss additional technical, pricing and schedule
details with customers".
The company declined to comment
on the board meeting that coincided with its annual meeting on Monday in
Chicago. After attracting enough orders, the next step in the plane's
development will be a formal launch of the program.
