Van Gough:
Just curious - where did you get the figure of 1.5 million from?
As reguards that article from the bbc, i have no doubt that the figures quoted seem reasonable - but only from a demand perspective. The real question in my humble opinion is whether that demand can be met in terms of supplying fuel at an affordable price to expanding asian countries....a question that for obvious reasons is not in the interest of boeing to raise.
