	Boeing X-43 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The third flight of a Boeing X-43A set a new speed record of 7,000 mph (11,200 km/h), or Mach 9.8, on November 16, 2004.
		The most recent success in the X-plane series of aircraft, the X-43 is part of NASA's Hyper-X program, involving the American space agency and contractors such as Boeing, MicroCraft Inc, Orbital Sciences Corporation and General Applied Science Laboratory (GASL).
		According to a special feature article by Daryl Stephenson in the August 2005 online issue of Boeing Frontiers the X-43C appears to be funded through 2005.

		An American Airlines Boeing 767, an example of a fixed-wing aircraft
		The Boeing 727 was another widely used passenger aircraft, and the Boeing 747, was the biggest commercial aircraft in the world up to 2005, when it was surpassed by the Airbus A380.

		Boeing is part of a NASA/industry team that's developing the scaled X-43 Hyper-X hypersonic demonstrator, while Boeing Phantom Works has produced the unmanned X-37 reusable space plane, which is due to begin atmospheric drop tests in 2004 and could be launched from a Delta IV or Atlas V rocket in 2006.
		Above: Boeing Phantom Works is developing the Autonomous Space Transport Robotic Operations (ASTRO) satellite as part of the Orbital Express Program.
		Boeing is supporting a number of technology efforts in support of this goal, including the National Aerospace Initiative to produce a test vehicle capable of flying up to Mach 10 and the Space Launch Initiative for finding a successor to the Space Shuttle.

	Boeing 767
		Sincen Boeing wanted to be ready to have always a suitable solution for the requirements of the airlines in this dynamic and increasing market segment also in the 21st century, today Boeing already examines with the 767X-family the possibility of new derivatives of this successful airplane.
		After the Boeing 767 was announced at the same time at which also the model 757 was announced, it introduced a completely new, 1,24 m.
		At the same time with the development of the model 757, Boeing communicated that a region model 767 with two seat rows was built, also at the same time.

	Boeing 737
		Boeings biggest advantages can be explained with very successful experiences that had been collected (been won) with the 727.
		On the long distances, the Boeing 707 (with four jet-engines) was the undisputed "number one", on the central distances it was the Boeing 727 with her three engines (of which one engine was mounted in the rear).
		The Boeing 737 is the smallest member of the Boeing family, that is why she is called "lovingly" also "Baby Boeing".

	Boeing Flight Operations Symposium
		Although Boeing and customer flight crews have reported shudder on the -600 and -800, these reports of shudder may be attributed to heavily damped shimmy vibration which is being erroneously identified as "shudder." If this is the case, the shimmy dampers should help eliminate vibration upon landing.
		Boeing has no plans to cover this issue in future versions of the FCTM as the scenario is rarely encountered in normal operations.
		Boeing is currently in the process of developing a nonprecision approach procedure which will utilize VNAV to track these vertical path angles for the 737NG.

	The Boeing 747
		Boeing used a new method of spotting potential hazards known as "fault tree analysis," where engineers could easily see the impact of a failure of one part or system on other parts.
		At one point early in 1970, Boeing had some 30 planes parked at its plant that could not be delivered until Pratt and Whitney had corrected the deficiencies of its JT-9D engine.
		Nevertheless, building the plane was a highly risky undertaking for Boeing, both financially and technically.

		The configuration of the Boeing 767-200 is conventional with the wing located in the low position at the bottom of the fuselage and with one of the two engines pylon mounted beneath each wing.
		The Boeing 767-200 is a 290-passenger, double-aisle, wide-body airliner designed to replace the aging Boeing 707 and McDonnell Douglas DC-8 transports now used on domestic and foreign medium range route segments.
		Although of conventional configuration, the detailed aerodynamic design of the 767-200 is highly refined, as might be expected by the nearly 25 000 hours of wind-tunnel time required in the development of the aircraft.

	HeraldNet: Boeing thinks far ahead
		Boeing's X-43 is an unmanned hypersonic aircraft that flew at nearly Mach 10 last year - close to 7,000 mph - but it likely will be 2035 before its technology is used on a military aircraft.
		The Connexion by Boeing Internet service that allows travelers to send and receive e-mail at 30,000 feet also has applications for cutting-edge communications systems in combat.
		Those are some of the lessons from a technology expo Boeing's Phantom Works division is putting on for employees inside the company's Everett factory this week.

		Moreover it is hard to imagine the engineering that went into the Boeing X-43 that allowed it to cut through the air like that.
		In hypersonic flight, defined as flying at least five times the speed of sound, metals can melt or vaporize almost instantly, and aerodynamic control must be extremely precise.

	Aerospace Engineering Online: Technology update - Pratt & Whitney completes Boeing JSF engine
		Engine qualification testing for the Boeing JSF continues, as does developmental testing of the STOVL propulsion system, which will be used to demonstrate the Boeing direct-lift design on the X-32B (the second Boeing JSF demonstrator) later this year.
		Both of Boeing's JSF demonstrators will meet the program's three concept-demonstration objectives: demonstrate commonality across the variants, including design/build processes; demonstrate the Boeing direct-lift propulsion concept for STOVL hover and transition; and demonstrate good low-speed carrier approach flying qualities.
		The engine will power the first Boeing JSF demonstrator, which will be used to validate the concept's basic flying qualities and low-speed carrier approach for the U.S. Navy variant.

	Now you see it, now you won't: Boeing lifts the veil on stealthy Bird of Prey
		Boeing pilot Joe Felock made it clear that the Bird of Prey – named after a Klingon spacecraft from Star Trek – was a low-performance demonstrator, designed to put a representative shape into the air with minimum time and expense.
		Boeing's Bird of Prey technology demonstrator, unveiled in St Louis on 18 October after spending a decade in the world of 'black' or classified programs, is a very important step in stealth technology, combining a very low radar cross-section (RCS) with a renewed focus on visual and even acoustic signatures.
		The US$67 million development cost was provided by McDonnell Douglas (acquired by Boeing in 1998), but the USAF agreed to provide flight-test facilities and security, including chase aircraft and access to the secure flight-test center at Area 51 in Nevada.
