Boeing will continue the C-17 production line for a few more years. See a press release here. No details of how many aircraft or contract value were provided. Boeing is on contract for 190 C-17s for the USAF, of which 175 have been delivered. 15 more were just placed on contract as part of the FY08 Defense Supplemental bill. Boeing had been seeing the end of the production line with the finishing of USAF and foreign orders. Depending on the size of the Qatar order it may extend the line for some time.
