    Not sure if this is serious. Boeing and Airbus are booked with orders for the next several years. They both could not get a single new order and would have work to do for the next half decade.

      Several years is an understatement. At current rates of production it will take at least 14 years to fulfill all orders.

      Not sure if this is serious.

      if you are really not sure whether this:

      They could be mainly orders for extra bolts.

      is serious, then i recommend to not attempt crossing a street without supervision 😜

        its a valid question.

        “Are they orders for whole planes, or for anything boeing might produce such as bolts?”

        Does that simplify it for you? Careful crossing the streets
