Happy Thanksgiving to you too Uresh - you have a great site!
As to the "ready for delivery" planes, note they ALL are GE engines. So I presume the customers are not taking delivery until GE can prove the icing problem has been solved AND thoroughly tested.
As this is costing Boeing quite a bit of cash flow and additional embarrassment, I would imagine Boeing has a claim against GE. Does anyone know?
Thanks to Uresh for the dedication to this site, and a happy Thanksgiving to all… wishing you all the best international first class Turkey dinner ever.
I noticed that position 1 in Charleston has been open for a while with the next frame in line is still showing as "parts arriving." Does anyone know if there is a supply issue there? (Or maybe allocating people to clear completed aircraft)
If Boeing has increased the production rate to 10/month then in Everett the rate should be 8/month but they are putting a new frame in assembly line in 1 frame per 6 days that means 5/month in everett....Why???
Happy Thanksgiving Uresh to you and your family.

ReplyDeletePlease folks, not "Tarmac." That is a gravel like material that was on old airports and country roads. The parking space is called a RAMP! RSM
