Wall Street Journal:
International Consolidated Airlines Group SA could as soon as this week place an order for the new Airbus A350 long-range jetliner for its British Airways unit, according to two people familiar with the talks. If completed, the deal would be a significant win for the Airbus unit of European Aeronautic Defence & Space Co. EAD rival Boeing Co., which has been trying to persuade IAG to buy a proposed update of its 777 model, dubbed the 777X, intended to compete with the A350.
Even if IAG orders the A350 for British Airways, Boeing is "not out of the running" for a later order for the 777Xs, said one of the people familiar with the carrier's plans. But another person said that if IAG orders A350s, it wouldn't receive preferential terms on Boeing orders.
The exact number of planes in IAG's A350 order, and its value, are still under negotiation, according to the people familiar with the talks. IAG's talks with Airbus focus on the A350-1000 model, the largest of three A350 versions Airbus is developing and is due in 2017, the people said. The order could also include a smaller, longer-range version, the A350-900, one of these people said. The purchase of the largest A350 model is likely designed to replace the company's aging fleet of 747-400 aircraft, which were delivered from 1989 to 1999.

Det är spännande tider nu när Boeing 787 är grounded, Airbus 350 närmar sig första flygning och Boeing lanserar 777X för att kontra A350. Min magkänsla är att Boeing kommer ta hem en majoritet av widebody orders inom dom närmaste tio åren men jag hade å andra sidan inte räknat med alla 787-problem om du frågat mig för fem år sedan. 777X "dödar" både 747-8 och A380.

På tal om BA och 787 så rullades den första ut fullt målad på Boeing flightline igår. (Notera även de blåmålade motorerna, BA är första operatör som väljer att inte ha kvar Boeings gråvita standardkulör..)
