broadwood - how so? 120 planes * average of £500k per plane is 60,000,000 and if the margin is 10% then they are making £6m per year. We know there are orders for 7 years so that's £42m profit for current orders.

smarm - don't think your figures are correct. Some more noughts?

[smarm] 18/7/2010 16:30

p.s the 787 has landed safely at Farnborough.

From 2009 annual report:

Of these orders, 851 are for the Boeing 787
aircraft, where Senior has between US$600k and US$1,100k of
content per aircraft, depending on the engine configuration.

Take an average then of $800 per plane or rounded £500k.

863 planes on order.

120 planes per year by 2013.

120 * 500k = £60,000,000

We don't know the margin but say 10%.

That's £6m profit per year by 2013.

And orders already lasting 7 years in the bag.

I strongly suggest a read here. Funny to see people selling on recession woes...too silly when you look at the fabulous order book.

thanks, will e-mail company for further info..

[thebigsheep2] 18/7/2010 07:49

You should check this out further, but I understand it's the ribs of the wings.

Great article on BBC this AM re the 787..Does anybody know or direct me to how/what much we contribute to the 787 build. Can imagine that it would relate to a number of obscure parts, but wondering if there is a major part of the build that SNR can lay claim to? Thx

The 787 flight-test airplane, ZA003, will touch down at Farnborough the morning of Sunday, July 18 and will remain on static display through mid-day July 20. The airplane will be open for tours on a scheduled basis July 19 and 20. Boeing is using ZA003 to test and certify seats, galleys and associated cabin safety and comfort systems, among other test points.

I wonder if this is the plane they will be sending to London.

Indeed indeed, we should see these move up on press and media coverage.

[smarm] 14/7/2010 16:26

trendfloor - I agree.

Also, 787 at Farnborough next week should cause quite a stir.

[trendfloor] 14/7/2010 15:43

Starting to rally, good sign.

Been a very hot stock of late and got my pullback today.... nice.

Telegraph article

..........................
"BA has also ordered 24 Boeing 787 Dreamliners, with an option on 18 more. Billed as the world' "greenest" aircraft, the much delayed 787 will make its British debut at the Farnborough Airshow next week."

[jojo01] 12/7/2010 12:53

Positive article in the telegraph about Farnborough Air Show and in particular the 787 making a long anticipated appearance.

[smarm] 10/7/2010 15:42

Tuesday 20th at Farnborough we should get a nice update on 787 progress.

10.00 787 Dreamliner: From Concept to Reality - Radlett Suite (Media Centre)

Scott Fancher, vice president and general manager of the 787 Dreamliner Program; Capt. Mike Carriker, chief pilot for the 787 Program, Mike Sinnett, vice president and chief engineer for 787 Systems; and Marlin Dailey, vice president, Sales & Marketing; and John Roundhill, Commercial Airplanes Senior Advisory Group member, will provide an update on 787 development and flight test progress toward first delivery in the fourth quarter of 2010.

jojo - nothing suspicious, I'm afraid your stop was wrong. The average true range for SNR right now is 5 (that is to say over the past 14 days it has moved an average range of 5 points a day). You will therefore need a stop greater than 5 if you are stay in on a busy day.

[stockadoodle] 08/7/2010 18:30

In these types of markets you can get stopped out in a flash for no reason whatsoever apart from a few second where the spread turns against you.

[broadwood] 08/7/2010 18:04

Stop losses can get triggered too easily in the way you describe.

Prefer to trust my judgement.

[jojo01] 08/7/2010 16:16

Another lesson learnt the hard way - when the price hit 130p i set a tight stop loss at 127.5, went into the garden for half an hour and came back to find all my shares sold at 128.2p - Apparently the spread had increased by 1.5p running the bid down to 127.5, just enough to trigger my stop loss. It all feels a bit suspicious to me...anyone had a similar experience?

[dancing piranha] 08/7/2010 13:14

Indeed, bought more myself @ 117p on the dip... happy days!

[broadwood] 08/7/2010 12:08

Off to the races again.

[broadwood] 08/7/2010 08:40

Its usual new orders get announced at Farnboro'.

And 787 progress?
