Abstract

McDonnell Douglas (MDC) made a provident decision in not launching its MD-XX line of commercial jets, despite favorable market conditions. The manufacturer introduced the four-engine commercial jet liner in 1992, a period of recession.

Despite increased demand, the industry has historically been beset by periods of diminished value and cancelled orders following periods of large orders., McDonnell Douglas's decision not to launch the proposed MD-XX (see 'News Briefs,' page 7) should not really come as a surprise to industry observers, who have watched the company consider [...]

Abstract

Boeing has bowed to European Commission concerns about its planned merger with McDonnell Douglas by agreeing to drop the exclusive 20-year supply agreements which it has signed with three US airlines. It had already agreed to restrict defence technology activities in the merged group's commercial operations and to make available separate accounts for the Douglas civil aircraft operations. It is still uncertain whether the European Commission will now vote in favour of the merger going ahead.
