    TEXT: 
  /LP,/TX  TOKYO, April 26 - The Boeing Company said on Monday that it had kicked off 
    its 7E7 jet, its first new airplane in more than a decade, after receiving 
    an order from Japan's All Nippon Airways for 50 planes. 
     
  /TX  The order from All Nippon Airways was the largest in Boeing's history, the 
    company said, which estimated the deal at $6 billion, based on the jet's 
    list price. But as the first customer for the medium-range airplane, 
    nicknamed the Dreamliner, analysts said that All Nippon most likely 
    received a significant discount.

    TEXT: 
  /LP,/TX    Boeing Co. followed the intent of congressional law in its strategy to 
    provide new tanker aircraft to the U.S. Air Force, officials told The DAILY 
    in a continuing defense of the deal. 
     
  /TX    "The intent of Congress was that the Air Force and Boeing work together 
    using widely accepted commercial practices to find a way to deliver 100 
    tanker aircraft to the warfighter far sooner than traditional 
    non-commercial DOD practices allow," Jim Albaugh, president and CEO of 
    Boeing Integrated Defense Systems, said of the lease-buy arrangement for 
    KC-767A tankers. 
     
      Boeing has launched a vigorous defense of its negotiations with Air 
    Force officials, which were sharply criticized in a Defense Department 
    inspector general's report (DAILY, April 12) and have come under fire from 
    Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), a member of the Senate Armed Services 
    Committee.
