Norwegian 'very interested' in Boeing NMA: CE
Norwegian is "very interested" in Boeing's proposed New Midsize Airplane design, says CE Bjorn Kjos. "We're looking at the new middle-of-the-market aircraft," he said Wednesday. The airframer unveiled the initial design of the NMA, also called the 797 by some, at the Paris air show earlier in June. The aircraft would carry 200 to 270 passengers, have a range of 5,000nm and be equipped with engines with 40,000 to 50,000lb of thrust. Norwegian provided Boeing with its "wishes" in terms of specifications and performance of the NMA, says Kjos. However, it has not discussed the possibility of ordering the aircraft with the airframer yet. Kjos says Norwegian is "highly likely" more interested in the NMA than it is in Boeing's newly launched 737 Max 10, which racked up more than 360 orders and commitments in Paris. <br/>
