Finishing Line
January 3, 2008 sees the long awaited 2007 year end total for firm orders attained by Boeing.
Like its European rival, Airbus, Boeing has already broken its previous sales records and 2007 looks like it will have hit a order peak during this 12 month period.
Airbus is poised to release its 2007 year end order totals in a few weeks time too.

Aviation Week is playing the guessing game with final numbers too.
Interestingly, the CNBC figures show Airbus with 1,858 orders and Boeing with 1,463.
Erring on the side of caution, I’d hazard a guess to say that these are gross, not net totals.
The climax to the 2007 order race will be a tight one.
Who do you think got to the finish line first?
