As far as I know Airbus received over 155 orders during the Paris air show, bringing the number of aircraft ordered this year alone to over 300.

Boeing has order for 169 aircraft this year total.

....And the order from ILFC has a value of 9,4 billion dollars. That a nine and a four, with a hell of a lot zeros after.... http://www.pprune.org/ubb/NonCGI/eek.gif http://www.pprune.org/ubb/NonCGI/eek.gif http://www.pprune.org/ubb/NonCGI/eek.gif
