Boeing NLA - Definition and Overview


The Boeing NLA, or New Large Aircraft, was a 1990s concept for an all-new airliner in the 500+ seat market. Somewhat larger than the 747, this aircraft was similar in concept to the Airbus A380 and McDonnell Douglas MD-12. Boeing chose not to pursue development of this concept, focusing rather on plans to update the 747.
