According to a report from Reuters on February 5th cited by Overseas Network, on February 4th local time, Boeing announced that its supplier Spirit AeroSystems had discovered that two holes were drilled incorrectly on the fuselage of some of the aircraft being produced, and the company will rework them, causing a delay in the delivery of approximately 50 Boeing 737 MAX aircraft.
Previously, industry sources reported that there was an issue with the spacing of holes near the window frames of Boeing aircraft. Boeing stated that this will not affect flight safety, and the existing Boeing 737 aircraft can continue to fly.
Recently, multiple Boeing aircraft models have experienced safety accidents.
On January 28th local time, the windshield of a United Airlines Boeing 737-800 aircraft broke, forcing the pilot to make a temporary landing at an airport in Colorado. The aircraft was originally scheduled to fly to Dulles International Airport in northern Virginia.
A statement released by United Airlines stated that the aircraft changed course due to "maintenance issues.". After the plane landed safely and passengers disembarked normally, the windshield of the plane was replaced.
On January 20th local time, a Boeing 757 aircraft of Delta Air Lines in the United States experienced tire detachment before takeoff from Atlanta. The report stated that the aircraft was originally scheduled to fly to Bogota, Colombia, but was detected as abnormal by another flight while taxiing near its takeoff position. The cause of tire detachment is currently unclear.
On January 5th, shortly after takeoff, an embedded emergency door on the side of the cabin of an Alaska Airlines 737 MAX 9 aircraft fell off, causing the aircraft to make an emergency landing.
According to foreign media reports cited by CCTV News, on January 5th, the emergency cabin door of a Boeing aircraft involved in an Alaska Airlines accident may have lacked fixing bolts when it left the factory. According to reports, Boeing insiders believe that workers on the company's production line may not have reinstalled the bolts when opening or removing the emergency hatch of the aircraft before reinstalling it. Because there are no relevant markings for bolt installation on the involved cabin door of the aircraft. Insiders also pointed out that there were omissions in the paperwork and processes related to the cabin doors at Boeing's Renton factory in Washington state.
Boeing's Q4 2023 financial report released on January 31 showed a year-on-year increase in revenue and aircraft deliveries, but a net loss of $30 million for the quarter and a net loss of approximately $2.242 billion for the year.
The financial report shows that Boeing's revenue in the fourth quarter of last year was $22.018 billion, a year-on-year increase of 10%. Among them, the revenue of the Civil Aircraft Group was 10.481 billion US dollars, a year-on-year increase of 13%; The global service group's revenue was 4.849 billion US dollars, a year-on-year increase of 6%. In addition, Boeing's annual revenue for 2023 was $77.794 billion, with 528 civilian aircraft delivered, an increase of 17% and 10% year-on-year, respectively.
Boeing President and CEO Dave Calhoun said that the company's focus is on taking comprehensive actions to improve quality, including listening to the opinions of 737 production employees and working transparently with regulatory agencies to ensure that all tasks are completed to gain shareholder trust.
