Boeing eyes potential for over 1,000 jets in mid-market

Boeing sees a potential market size of over 1,000 aircraft in a niche it is exploring between its single-aisle 737 and wide-body 787, but has not decided whether to go ahead and build a jet for the so-called 'mid-market,' its sales chief said on Sunday. Speaking in an interview ahead of the Paris Airshow, John Wojick, senior vice president for global sales and marketing at Boeing Commercial Airplanes, also said Boeing would be "tracking toward" its annual order target by the end of June. The remark implies that the Chicago-based planemaker expects to make announcements involving around 200 aircraft at the Paris Airshow, which starts on Monday.
