Boeing sells almost 100 aircraft to single airline
Boeing has sold almost 100 aircraft to Mexican airline Aeromexico in a deal worth £7bn.The order includes eight of the new 787 Dreamliner aircraft.
The news of the order came as the aircraft manufacturer announced a 3% rise in second quarter income to £625m.
Chief executive Jim McNerney said: "Increased revenues and strong operating performance across both our major businesses drove significantly improved first-half 2012 results for Boeing."
Commercial aircraft deliveries rose 27%, he said, while "our defence, space and security business also produced higher revenues and strong margins in a difficult market environment".
Aeromexico will buy 90 Boeing 737-8 MAX aircraft in addition to the 787-9 Dreamliners.
