Ryanair has agreed to buy 150 new Boeing 737-10 aircraft, and taken options on 150 more, inking the largest order ever placed by an Irish company for US manufactured goods.

The deal is worth $40 billion at list prices, Ryanair\n \n said in a statement Tuesday, which contained none of the sharp criticism that CEO Michael O’Leary has previously leveled at Boeing because of delays in delivering aircraft the airline had ordered. Boeing’s share price gained more than 3% in New York. Ryanair was up 2%. The planes, the largest of Boeing’s\n \n 737 Max aircraft, will be delivered between 2027 and 2033.

Asked during an interview on CNBC Tuesday if he regretted those comments, O’Leary said he did not, although he added, “I frequently shoot my mouth off, not always necessarily accurately.” “This is a bit like a marriage. We have occasional fights, we squabble occasionally, but we kiss and make up and then I pay up.” In the same interview, Boeing CEO Dave Calhoun said he was fine with O’Leary’s earlier criticism. “He was clear. His emotions showed,” he said.
