News from the air and defense industry:

Boeing Co. (NYSE:BA) has sold five 747-8s to Volga-Dnepr, the Russian air cargo company. The freighters, priced at a total of $1.4 billion, are scheduled for delivery between 2010 and 2013. Volga also secured the option to buy five more. According to the president of V-D, this is the largest Russian private plane purchase in history.
