Pembroke orders 10 small jetliners in boost to Boeing
Article Abstract:
Pembroke Capital Ltd has purchased 10 Boeing 717 jetliners. The list price of the 100-seat jetliners would be about $320 million, but Boeing has been having trouble selling them for that price. Boeing has been marketing the 717 more intensely since Airbus Industrie unveiled its less expensive A318 in Sep 1998. Pembroke, a leasing firm in Dublin, Ireland, is scheduled to take delivery of the Boeing jetliners in May 2000.
