Insight - The US$15bil jet dilemma facing Boeing CEO


Asked about the company’s discussions and options over a potential new airplane, a Boeing spokesman said it had no immediate comment beyond Calhoun’s (pic) remarks to investors.

BOEING Co CEO Dave Calhoun faces a multibillion-dollar dilemma over how to rebuild sales in its core airliner business that has sparked an internal debate and put the future of the largest US exporter on the line, industry insiders say.

Boeing is reeling from a safety scandal following crashes of its 737 MAX airliner and an air travel collapse caused by the pandemic. Those crises have overshadowed a deeper, longer-term risk to the company’s commercial passenger jet business.
