The US aircraft manufacturer Boeing posted a loss of around 11,9 billion US dollars last year. The group has never had such a high deficit in its long history.
The debacle surrounding the Boeing 737-Max, the EASA on Wednesday the re-admission gave Boeing a loss of $ 2019 million in 636. In the previous year, the result was also negatively influenced by the effects of the corona pandemic. In addition, the 777X project is not running smoothly and the company had to set aside 6,5 billion US dollars for this.
The first delivery of the 777X will be postponed again. The reasons for this are - in addition to home-made delays - also the interests of the customers. Because of the corona crisis, several airlines are pushing for a later takeover of their newly ordered long-haul jets. Boeing has now announced that the first handover to a customer will take place around the end of 2023.
