The analyst remains remarkably upbeat about the fuel efficiency of the 737 aircraft that several customers over the past six months are citing as a primary reason for purchase.

The analyst remains confident that Boeing can overcome the near-term production challenges and is well-positioned for sustainable long-term growth. 

Minervino also expects the company to boost performance from international travel growth and production rate increases.
