Boeing CEO says fixing supply chain constraints is 'frustratingly slow'

Boeing has seen improvements in certain elements of its supply chain, such as engine forgings and castings, Calhoun said. But the ability of aircraft makers like Boeing and European rival Airbus to meet customer demand for new planes will still be constrained "five years from now," he added. Boeing regularly tracks 25-30 parts from a subset of suppliers that have previoulsy faced production headwinds.

Boeing delays debut crewed Starliner spaceflight over new issues

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Boeing Co will stand down from late preparations for its first crewed Starliner test flight to space that was planned for July after it discovered two safety-critical issues with the spacecraft, a company official said on Thursday. Boeing found flammable tape material and issues with the spacecraft's parachute lines during engineering reviews last week, as engineers were targeting a July 21 launch date for the spacecraft, Mark Nappi, the company's Starliner manager, told reporters during a joint news conference with NASA officials.

Boeing CEO 'not overly anxious' about Chinese narrowbody jet

Boeing Co CEO Dave Calhoun downplayed speculation that China's maiden commercial flight of its domestically produced C919 narrowbody jet could foreshadow the end of the duopoly currently held by the U.S. planemaker and its European rival Airbus SE. On Sunday, China Eastern Airlines flew a C919 filled with passengers from Shanghai to Beijing - a milestone for manufacturer Commercial Aviation Corp of China (COMAC). Calhoun said the C919 is a "good airplane," but it will take a "long while" for COMAC to build the production capacity needed to meet Chinese airlines' demand.

Boeing says certification of 737 MAX 7 is taking 'considerable amount of time'

The certification of the Boeing Co 737 MAX 7 is taking a "considerable amount of time" due to new documentation requirements, but the planemaker still believes it can be certified by the end of the year, a company executive said on Wednesday. Both the MAX 7 and MAX 10 are seen as critical for Boeing to compete against Airbus SE for orders at the larger and smaller ends of the narrowbody market. Southwest Airlines Co was expecting to accept the first MAX 7 this year, although the airline's CEO has noted plans to put the aircraft into service could be delayed until 2024.

Boeing 737 MAX relatives may pursue pre-impact victim compensation claims

A U.S. judge ruled late on Tuesday that relatives of those killed in a 2019 Boeing 737 MAX Ethiopian Airlines crash may seek compensation for pain and suffering of passengers before the plane hit the ground. Boeing in 2021 agreed to acknowledge liability for compensatory damages in lawsuits filed by families of the 157 people killed in the fatal Ethiopian 737 MAX crash. In February, the U.S. planemaker sought to exclude any evidence of pain and suffering that passengers may have experienced before the crash.

Boeing Co has increased production of its widebody 787 Dreamliner from three to four planes per month as it gets ready to ramp to five a month by the end of the year, a company official said on Tuesday. The U.S. planemaker also plans to add a second production line to the company's facilities in Charleston, South Carolina, as it completes work this year on inventory 787s that are being modified at the site to meet U.S. Federal Aviation Administration standards, said Lane Ballard, Boeing's vice president and general manager for the 787 program. Boeing's plant in Everett, Washington, where 787s also are being modified to meet FAA standards, will continue doing that work, Ballard added.

Cathay Pacific nears Boeing 777-8F freighter order -sources

PARIS/WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Cathay Pacific Airways Ltd is close to placing an order worth around $2 billion for Boeing 777-8F freighters as the Hong Kong carrier embarks on the partial renewal of a fleet of dedicated 747 cargo jets, industry sources said on Monday.

Industry sources have said the competition involved an initial purchase of around half a dozen aircraft, worth some $2 billion at list prices before traditional airline discounts.

Boeing starts deliveries of reworked 737s, promises pricing discipline

(Reuters) -Boeing Co has started delivering reworked 737 jets from inventory to customers after a manufacturing glitch forced a brief halt, the company said on Thursday, adding it will be "disciplined" in setting jet prices during the current boom. The resumption could help the planemaker achieve the goal of 400-450 deliveries of the jet this year, a target closely watched by investors as the company looks to recover from successive crises caused by two fatal crashes and the pandemic. "We still expect the first half of the year to be about 30 per month and the back half of about 40 per month," CFO Brian West said, referring to deliveries, at a conference organized by Wolfe Research.
