Boeing Plane Design

India will not have to wait too long for a Boeing aircraft that is designed and manufactured in the subcontinent, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said at the inauguration of the plane maker's engineering centre in Bengaluru today.

In Boeing Co's factory of the future, immersive 3-D engineering designs will be twinned with robots that speak to each other, while mechanics around the world will be linked by $3,500 HoloLens headsets made by Microsoft Corp.

A draft interim report from Ethiopian crash investigators circulated to US government agencies concludes the March 2019 crash of a Boeing Co 737 MAX was caused by the plane's design, two people briefed on the matter said Friday.

US President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump will arrive in India in a highly customised Boeing 747-200B series aircraft, called "Air Force One". The White House on its website says that technically, Air Force One is used to describe any Air Force aircraft carrying the President, but since the middle of the 20th century, it has been stand...

Boeing Co on Thursday released hundreds of internal messages that contained harshly critical comments about the development of the 737 MAX, including one that said the plane was "designed by clowns who in turn are supervised by monkeys".

Grieving relatives tossed flowers into the sea today where an Indonesian Lion Air jet crashed a year ago, killing all 189 on board, after a final accident report pointed to plane design flaws as a key factor in the disaster.

Mechanical and design issues contributed to the crash of a Lion Air 737 MAX jet last October, Indonesian investigators told victims' families in a briefing on Wednesday ahead of the release of a final report.

Indonesian authorities have cited failures in the Boeing 737 MAX design and oversight as contributing to the 2018 Lion Air plane crash, the Wall Street Journal reported on Sunday.

For months Boeing has faced harsh criticism from pilot groups, which took issue with a decision to update the plane's flight controls without detailing the changes in pilot training.

The crash Sunday morning of a jetliner in Ethiopia bears unmistakable similarities to the October 29 tragedy off the coast of Indonesia involving the same model, prompting questions about whether a design issue that arose during the earlier accident could be to blame.

As Boeing Co. was developing its latest version of the 737 airliner, it discovered the design was slightly more prone to a loss of control. So the company added a computer-driven safety feature -- one that is now a focus of the investigation into a fatal crash last month near Indonesia.

The parents of passengers onboard the Lion Air flight that crashed into the Java Sea last month killing 189 people have sued Boeing for the alleged "unsafe design" of the 737 Max 8 aircraft.

Boeing Co.'s efforts to undermine sales of Airbus SE's newest widebody aircraft -- the A330neo -- have moved beyond U.S. borders and into India, a market seen by the European planemaker as crucial to extending sales for the plane into Asia

China's first airliner designed to compete with Airbus and Boeing is off to a slow start. After the fanfare surrounding the C919's maiden flight in May, the single-aisle plane didn't fly again for four months and the two test aircraft have only made about two dozen flights since, well below the normal schedule for a new commercial jet.

Indian low-cost carrier SpiceJet has committed to buy the new 737 MAX 10 planes from Boeing Co, the companies said, becoming an inaugural customer for an aircraft designed to blunt strong sales of rival planemaker Airbus' A321neo.
