Boeing Still Not Ready To Commit to NMA
The launch of the Airbus A321XLR won’t influence Boeing’s calculations of the business case for its proposed new middle-of-the market airplane.

Boeing remains circumspect about the possible launch of the NMA, as it continues to study the market for its proposed midsize airliner. Speaking Monday at the Paris Air Show, Boeing Commercial Airplanes CEO Kevin McAllister indicated that the company has yet to make a business case for the proposed NMA, right around the time Airbus officially launched the A321XLR, the long-range single-aisle jet ostensibly designed to serve some of the same markets targeted by its U.S. rival.
