Boeing Commercial Airplanes

computer-based training facilities and full-flight simulators to its customer’s crew training. Again, this is a valuable resource Boeing provides to its customers. Boeing also provides online information system, “MyBoeingFleet” Web Portal, which provides technical information, applications, and services to its customers to maintain and operate their fleets. By using this system, Boeing and its customers can improve its supply chain management and they will see significant cost savings and…

projects, the need for smaller commercial aircrafts is greater than before. Hence, Boeing and Airbus are targeting the production of smaller commercial airplanes to meet the industrial demand. Market Scenario Airbus and Embraer predicts a surge in the need for smaller commercial aircrafts with seating capacity for 70-150 passengers. 1- Our Competition Boeing’s major competitor since 1990s has been Airbus. The airplane industry…

price competition is high and cost (labor, fuel) is getting higher, Boeing focused on delivering values of efficiency to persuade consumers to use its product. Offers to design and deliver a super-efficient plane that would fly as fast as today’s fastest commercial airplanes and encourage airlines to retire their Boeing 767s and Airbus A300s and A310s and replace them with 787s rather than Airbus’s A330 planes at that time. Boeing focus on dramatically reduce journey times whilst provide…

more accessible,” (Slutsken). While the 747-100’s incredible size helped it to cut costs, it also created a huge danger in flight, if a 747 were to be involved in a hull loss accident, meaning that total control of the aircraft was lost and that the airplane was damaged beyond repair, it would create more casualties than are usually seen in an entire year in the aviation industry. Therefore, the engineers used a system called, “fault tree analysis,” that allowed the flight crew to see the effect…

reality. The Wright brothers’ groundbreaking invention of the airplane led to advances in both human and product transportation, allowing for new opportunities in the commercial and political worlds. The Wright brothers were eager to begin their development of the first…

With such a sensitive sales pitch Boeing would benefit from using PEST to continue with the transition. When dealing with a foreign country like Iran there will be many issues they will have to go through to see the deal through. Political issues start by Iran not being part of the United…

in great detail the December 29th, 2010, incident involving American Airlines flight 2253. This aircraft is a Boeing 757-200 with the registered tail number of N668AA. Upon landing, this large commercial airliner ran off the departure end of runway 19 and came to a gentle stop in deep snow at Jackson Hole Airport, Jackson Hole, Wyoming. The occupants were not injured, and the airplane sustained minor damage (NTSB, 2010). The subsequent accident investigation revealed some areas of…

With respect to technology, airplanes configured with fly by wire systems tend to achieve the desired glide. In addition, the system effectively gears up the flaps in order to retract possible spoilers. In this regard, the fly by wire system in Airbus A320 was perhaps, instrumental to…

These past few years the US government has drastically lowered the amount of funding NASA receives, hindering what they are able to do. However, recently privately owned companies such as SpaceX and Boeing have begun to design commercial space ships, and have even had major success and break through with those ships. Space is one of the last places, that we’re able to truly explore and find new things that could possibly help us back here on earth. Given this, NASA should receive a higher amount…

circumstance where a more accurate preflight check could have prevented a crash. It was a single mechanical error that caused the crash of Japan Airlines Flight 123. This mechanical error occurred when a bulkhead in the tail section of the Boeing made airplane was not repaired correctly. A row of rivets were not up to par after they were repaired. The maintenance workers didn’t follow the correct procedures in replacing the dysfunctional bulkhead. The rivets and plates used in the repair came…
