Then in that case, does that mean that Boeing won't lose any money provided that they keep their backlog full for the duration of the aircraft's life cycle? (maybe 20 years). Seems like they have many years to fill the hole made by Saudi Arabia at no real loss.

>Boeing won't lose any money provided that they keep their backlog full for the duration of the aircraft's life cycle? The 737 (all variants) is/was/will be massively popular so I'd imagine as a project it's probably still profitable. The danger here is reputation. Boeing has in the space of a year ruined a multi-decade reputation. I mentioned this before, but all these articles scream underlying institutional culture problems. Remember the one a month or so ago about a Boeing engineer saying he's uncomfortable letting family fly on a Boeing plane? Forget a lost order, that's existential crisis territory for an organization.
