Farnborough coming up - plenty of exposure from that.

Broker upgrade

[jojo01] 03/7/2010 12:12

Shauney2 - yes but only just, got in tentatively at 70p and have added along the way as and when I've been able to find cash. Bit the bullet with another 3k at 115p a couple of days ago, thinking it couldn't possibly go much lower.....lol :-/ Rekon I'll just delete ADVFN from my favorites and give myself 6 months before looking again!

[shauney2] 01/7/2010 20:33

Blimey jojo! Your still in profit lol.
Thats the way the market goes.If you sell out like i did it goes up and visa versa.Quality will always out so don't worry.

It's called the 'special relationship' we have with the Yanks..When they tank we follow suit, we then close at 4.30 and they salute us with two fingers and change direction...;-)

Profit taking/Stop loss

[beginner3] 01/7/2010 10:34

Its known as wider market sentiment,nothing to do with individual company!!!

[kimball808] 28/6/2010 16:41

nice uncrossed trade though...

[bailliej] 28/6/2010 12:36

It was!

Senior downgraded to add from buy at Brewin Dolphin, TP stays 152p

Nothing to worry about and a good opportunity to top up :)

[kimball808] 28/6/2010 11:09

And there's me thinking it was quite an upbeat trading statement...

[bailliej] 24/6/2010 16:01

Didn't think it was possible to work out short positions from L2.

Trading update expected on Monday .... GLA

[dancing piranha] 23/6/2010 14:09

I see the shorters are trying their best today, looking at L2!

5th 787, the first with GE engines, takes to the air with 3hr 50 flight at Boeing Field, as test program clocks up 1001.25 hrs. Reports suggest that it went well.



SNR too 'will take off' when 787 orders come rolling in (....er, as if it hasn't already).
You only have to look at 6month graph, to see a steady accent, I couldn't have drawn it better myself, that suggests there are even better times ahead.

[dancing piranha] 16/6/2010 17:03

Well done mazarin!

I'm chuffed, and I've been adding from 58p!

Can't wait to see how much they have paid off their dwindling debt at next results!

Net debt:
2008: £174.5m
2009: £102.3m
2010: ? (6th August)

[mazarin] 16/6/2010 17:00

Nice to be holding a winner for a change, its taken a lot of patience and belief in the Company to get here from the low days of 27p. Boeing 787 approaches 1000 hrs flight testing.

[dancing piranha] 16/6/2010 16:45

Indeed, what a share!

200p year end? Once the Dreamliner starts rolling out eoy!

[jojo01] 16/6/2010 16:38

ay ay ay ay yeeeeeee! Ay Caramba! Blasted through 130. If this is what's happening now are we likely to see further increases come the results? Or is this the anticipation of good results being priced in? Dancing pirhanna, you must be, well, dancing!

Here's a reminder of what we know.



Within the Aerospace Division (59% of Group sales in 2009), production of large
commercial aircraft, the Group's largest market sector, remained healthy with
Boeing and Airbus delivering a combined 230 aircraft in the quarter (Q1 2009:
237 aircraft). Their combined net order in-take was 143 aircraft (160 less 17
cancellations) for the three month period, a marked improvement from the 4
aircraft (50 less 46 cancellations) ordered in the first quarter of 2009.
Demonstrating their confidence in the future, Boeing and Airbus both recently
reiterated their positive outlook and announced planned increases in 2011 build
rates for their respective 777 and A320 aircraft. Importantly for Senior, given
the significant content the Group has on the aircraft, the flight test programme
for Boeing's 787 aircraft is making good progress with Boeing stating that they
expect to begin deliveries to customers, as scheduled, in the fourth quarter of
this year. Elsewhere in the Aerospace Division, markets were broadly as
anticipated. Demand in the business jet market continued to stabilise but build
rates of regional jets at Bombardier and Embraer weakened. Sales to the
military and defence market were strong, with the Group benefiting from
increasing production of Lockheed's C130 transport aircraft and Sikorsky's Black
Hawk helicopter.

Yep,I saw that.Anyone know how much Senior equipment gets put in the 737 as opposed to the Dreamliner?

[ferries5] 15/6/2010 10:19

Trading statement before results. Was 29th June last year.
