Another Big Iron Order At Paris Air Show?

Qatar Airways Will Reportedly Double Fleet With Wide-Body Orders

Jane's reports a second huge commercial aircraft transaction set to take place during the Paris Air Show next week. This time, Qatar Airways, half-owned by the tiny Gulf nation, will purchase 25 Airbus A330s and A340s, along with several Boeing 777 variants. Qatar Airways is also expected to option two mega-liners, Airbus A380s. Those options will reportedly be converted immediately into firm orders.

Last month, ANN reported Gulf-based Emirates Airlines would make a huge buy from both Boeing and Airbus ( ANN: May 29 2003 - "Somebody's About To Buy A Lot Of Heavy Iron"). That order will reportedly include 23 Airbus mega-jets, A380s (making 45 the total number Emirates will have on order), ten A340s, and 26 Boeing 777 ERs (extended range).
