Boeing Mulls Larger Engine For Biggest 737 MAX
Boeing is considering a plan to put a larger engine on its biggest narrowbody airliner in an effort to blunt the runaway success of a rival Airbus jet that outsells it by four to one, industry sources said. (www.reuters.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
We are witnessing Boeings public spanking for not developing a timely successor to the 757. Not sure if any aircraft accommodate "Lacalories" but it appears Airbus is prepared to address those as well.
I think everybody saw this coming. they were eventually going to stretch the 737 so much it was going to be as big or bigger than the 757
An $11 billion order to Boeing and US being able to sell arms to Vietnam-all within the same week. Coincidence? I think not!
Capitalism!
Would be nice to see someone be held accountable for the imbalance in sales compared to Airbus. But its easier to blame the entity "Boeing" than it is the person who signed off on the strategies that have led to this.
randy tinseth might be a place to start.

this guy sounds like one of those hamster managers. just spinning the wheels not looking for a solution. sound good, look good, just waiting for the golden parachute. if the 757 had such an expensive manufacturing process, whose fault is that randy tinseth? because i know i didn't have anything to do with it. they have a very large number of eggs in the 737 basket and the chickens are roosting.
