Thread regarding Boeing Co. layoffs

No New Boeing Airplanes

As expected, Boeing won't be spending anymore money on new airplanes. It has been pretty clear for some time that it is end days for Boeing.

Since they don't have any engineering intelligence anymore, they first need to create an artificial intelligence system to accomplish the design and manufacturing before they create a new airplane... Sounds like the Boeing executives must be partaking and enjoying the legal recreational ma------a now readily available.

  1. They no longer have the 2k engineers in Moscow and Kiev available who were going to do the bulk of the design because they were the cheapest.
  1. Calhoun will be gone in 2 years and will leave the problem for someone else so the development costs don’t impact his bonuses.
  1. The problems with the T7 design are more due to wing rock. manufacturing issues when all parts are built by suppliers? They were planning to do the entire design with a minimum staff based on all the projected cost savings from their design tools which never really pan out on a new programs plus their lack of experience . Their last production program was F18.

Well, they can't announce a new 737 replacement or they would quickly see even more customer cancelations. They also don’t have the capital or capable workforce to successfully develop any significant new product anymore. Their prime objective appears to be raising stock price as high and fast as possible for executive bonuses and severance packages before the end arrives.

(Bloomberg) _ 06/03/2022
Boeing won’t launch a new jetliner any time soon to address Airbus SE’s widening
sales lead in the narrow-body market, Chief Executive Officer Dave L. Calhoun said.

Prominent customers like Air Lease Corp. founder Steven Udvar-Hazy have been
calling on Boeing to get moving on the mid-sized aircraft family Calhoun tabled
two years ago.
But there are no leaps in engine technology in sight to propel jetliner sales, and
Calhoun said he isn’t willing to bet an expensive new development program on
the current generation of turbofans. --- W.T.F. is this nonsense >> Total BS

The Boeing chief is counting on new digital tools to revolutionize how aircraft
are designed, built and tracked over decades in the commercial market,
concepts the company has touted for at least five years. --- All Talk and No Action
More of the same, pie in the sky smoke & mirrors. Look how great we are, -- BS…

However, Boeing has been testing the technology on defense programs like the
T-7 trainer and it isn’t yet “mature,” Calhoun said at the
Bernstein Strategic Decisions Conference on Friday.
Yeah, We don’t have the tech, in the very next breath said Dave L. Calhoun.

It will take “at least a couple of years before I’m confident that those tools are
tested and mature enough to implement on the next airplane,” Calhoun said,
citing an internal review he’d attended Thursday.
“When that happens, then we design the next airplane.
We don’t do it the other way around.” –
This Dave L. Calhoun guy is Dishonest, Delusional and Inept!!!

Calhoun reiterated that Boeing doesn’t plan to raise equity in the near term,
and wouldn’t do so before 787 Dreamliner deliveries have resumed and the
plane maker has tackled production issues with the 737 Max Fraud.

Boeing shares dipped 0.7% to $139.46 at 10:26 a.m. in New York.
