One year after a major leadership overhaul and rough waters, Boeing landed a massive win that could benefit Spokane, according to The Spokesman-Review.

On Wednesday, Qatar Airlines agreed to a 210-aircraft deal including Boeing’s 787 Dreamliner and the newer 777X. The agreement, finalized during a ceremony attended by President Donald Trump and the Emir of Qatar, is valued at $96 billion, though large aircraft orders typically come with substantial discounts.
