BOEING International Lease Finance expects to get its first 787 in November 2011, 22 months behind the original plan. With 74 on order, ILFC is Boeing's largest 787 customer. It had been expecting to receive its first 787 in January 2010, with deliveries running to 2017, but now expects an average delay of 27 months per aircraft: "We are unable to assess whether these delays will have any significant impact on our operations for any future period."
