Boeing Reallocates Engineers to Expedite Commercial Jet Deliveries
Boeing is reassigning its engineering workforce from projects like the experimental X-66A aircraft to bolster its commercial aviation programs and accelerate the delivery of its current jet models. This strategic shift aims to ensure timely deliveries of Boeing’s 737 and 777 jets, as mentioned in an internal memo.
The X-66A is a groundbreaking initiative, representing NASA and Boeing’s first experimental plane designed to help the United States achieve its ambitious target of net-zero aviation greenhouse gas emissions. Despite the importance of the X-66A, the company appears to be prioritizing its ongoing commercial commitments over experimental pursuits at this juncture.
Boeing has not yet provided an official response to requests for comments on this development.
