US-based Boeing Company forecasts that the Middle East will need 640 aircraft worth $63 million during the next 20 years. The airplane manufacturer expects an improvement in the travel industries in the region at the beginning of the coming year.
Boeing is one of the world's largest commercial jetliner producers. The company recently signed a five-year agreement with Algeria’s Khalifa Airways for the lease of two 777-200 jetliners scheduled for delivery in November and December 2002. — (menareport.com)
