In a statement Thursday, he said Singapore continued to be the region’s
magnet for bringing the global aerospace community together in one place, and
Boeing’s presence and success in the Asia-Pacific gave it a great platform for
talking about the company’s direction.

programmes, the international fighter market and the next-generation, multi-role
capabilities of the F/A-18E/F Super Hornet and F-15 Advanced Eagle.

It will also give an air battle management briefing covering the 737
Airborne Early Warning & Control programme, the P-8A Poseidon maritime patrol
aircraft, unmanned aerial vehicles and the Network Centric Command and Control
System battle management system.

A briefing on Boeing’s rotorcraft programme will include the AH-64D Apache
Longbow, AH-6i light attack/reconnaissance helicopter, CH-47F Chinook and V-22
Osprey.

Boeing aircraft on display during the show include the F-15E fighter jet,
AH-6i, C-17 Globemaster III airlifter, KC-135 tanker and a Garuda Indonesia
737-800 with Blended Winglets.

The Boeing exhibit will showcase models of the 787 Dreamliner, 747-8
