		The airplane will be based on the enabling technologies developed with a global industry team during the company's examination of the Sonic Cruiser concept.
		Boeing Co. replaced its top executive for commercial-airplane sales in December 2004 after the company had conceded that it failed to meet its goal of booking about 200 orders for its new 7E7 Dreamliner jet by year's end.
		Boeing estimates that final assembly of the 7E7 will require 800 to 1,200 workers, while acknowledging that it could be fewer if components are supplied in larger, more finished pieces.

	Boeing Whistleblowers Say Planes Must Be Grounded
		“Boeing assembly personnel were witnessed improperly redrilling the holes in the bear strap or forcing the parts into position for fastening to the aircraft,” whistleblowers allege in a federal suit against Boeing and Ducommun.
		In their lawsuit, the whistleblowers charge that 32 Boeing airplanes sold to the U.S. government, mostly for military use, had dangerously defective parts and should be grounded.
		In fact, the whistleblowers say that they were told repeatedly by Boeing management that they were not to discuss the issue, especially with the FAA, and they were criticized for continuing to push Boeing to address their safety concerns.

	Boeing's Mulally is courted by United Airlines (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		He has enjoyed a relatively good reputation with Boeing's rank and file in the region, and his leadership could be critical during upcoming contract talks with Boeing's Machinists and engineers.
		The two most likely commercial unit executive candidates to replace Mulally, should he leave, would be James Jamieson, executive vice president of all Boeing commercial airplane programs, and Mike Bair, executive vice president of commercial aviation services.
		Mulally has overseen Boeing's commercial airplane operations since September 1998, when then-commercial boss Ron Woodard was fired in the biggest management shakeup in Boeing's 82-year history.

	Boeing Sending IT Work Overseas
		Boeing Commercial Airplanes is shifting more of its software programming work to India and other countries, a trend that worries union officials who've already seen the company off-loading to its partners large tasks of manufacturing and aircraft design.
		Boeing's shedding of lower-rung programmers parallels the company's plan to shift much of the manufacturing work on its new 7E7 to outside partners.
		Boeing is right in step with companies across the United States, many of which are sending their lower-level software programming and maintenance to contractors and support companies overseas, especially in India.
