Boeing reports order for 30 737 MAX jets from Chinese leasing firm

Boeing revealed Monday that Chinese aircraft lessor CDB Aviation Lease Finance has placed an order for 30 of its new single-aisle 737 MAX 8 jets. The order was booked earlier and was previously listed on Boeing’s orders website as coming from an unidentified customer. The order is worth $3.3 billion at current list prices, but based on market valuation data from aircraft valuation firm Avitas, the real value after standard industry discounts is about $1.5 billion.
