Boeing eyes 800 of 747s by 1980 amid slow sales
Boeing hopes to place 800 of the Boeing 747 jets by 1980 as industry sales lag. With 210 delivered to date, the maker notes a pickup this year and predicts 400 by decade's end, while CAB data show load factors well below other aircraft. Pan Am and Northwest praise economics but mixed carrier results complicate profits.
