CHICAGO, Oct. 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The Boeing Company
[NYSE: BA] announced today major program deliveries across its
commercial and defense operations for the third quarter of
2021.
"We made important progress driving stability throughout our
operations in the third quarter, as we prioritized safety and
quality and worked to deliver for our customers," the company
said.
"Our defense and services teams delivered across several key
programs. In our commercial business, we increased 737 MAX
deliveries in the quarter, and progressed in safely returning the
737 MAX to service in more international markets.
We are also continuing to complete comprehensive inspections
across the 787 production system and within the supply chain, while
holding detailed, transparent discussions with the FAA, suppliers
and our customers. Production resources remain focused on
inspections and rework and the 787 production rate remains lower
than five airplanes per month. We will continue to take the time
needed to ensure the highest levels of quality. While these efforts
continue to impact deliveries, we're confident this is the right
approach to drive stability and first-time quality across our
operations and to position the program for the long term as market
demand recovers."
The company will provide detailed third quarter financial
results on Oct. 27. Major program
deliveries during the third quarter were as follows:
