Boeing will plead guilty to fraud as part of a deal with the US Department of Justice over two fatal 737 MAX crashes, according to a court filing on July 24, 2024. The agreement comes after prosecutors concluded Boeing flouted an earlier settlement addressing the disasters, in which a total of 346 people were killed in Ethiopia and Indonesia more than five years ago.

New York, United States — Boeing has resumed production on the 737 MAX after a nearly three-month stoppage due to a lengthy labor strike in the Seattle region.

The company’s Renton factory resumed production on the 737 MAX on Friday, Boeing said. Its Everett facility, where the 767, 777 and 777X are produced, will resume operations in the coming days. The two plants were shuttered for more than seven weeks after some 33,000 workers with the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM) District 751 voted down an initial contract offer in September. READ: Boeing announces almost 2,200 layoffs at historic sites On November 4, workers ratified a revised proposal, setting the stage for a resumption of work.Boeing said it has been working “methodically” to ensure a safe restoration of activity.US air safety regulators have stepped up oversight of the company following several incidents, including a mid-flight Alaska Airlines panel blowout that required an emergency landing in January.”Over the last several weeks, we dedicated time toward training and certifications, ensuring parts and tools are ready and completing work on airplanes in inventory to prepare to resume production at pre-stoppage rates,” Boeing said.

The statement came as Boeing disclosed that it made 13 new plane deliveries in November, including nine MAX jets produced before the strike.

But Boeing’s deliveries have lagged its historic trend, pinching revenues. Boeing has delivered just 318 jets in all through the first 11 months of the year.

In 2023, it delivered 528 planes. In 2018, Boeing delivered 806 planes.

Boeing’s travails have dented its financial outlook, resulting in the company raising more than $20 billion in new stock offerings this fall and trimming its workforce by 10 percent.

In recent weeks Boeing notified 4,700 US workers that they will be laid off, including nearly 2,600 in the Seattle region, according to figures compiled by AFP.
