Boeing deliveries spike as jet maker returns to profitability

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Boeing delivered 512 commercial jets from its Renton and Everett plants last year, marking a 72% year-over-year increase in commercial airplane deliveries from its Puget Sound-area factories.

Fourth quarter results released Tuesday showed signs of the jet maker’s continued rebound from setbacks, including a midflight panel blowout on a 737 Max in January 2024.

Boeing also delivered 88 Dreamliners last year, which are built in South Carolina.

In total, Boeing delivered 600 commercial airplanes last year, its highest annual total since 2018 and up from 348 the year before.

1. Lets hope

These ones are better at not falling out of the sky.

Given the leadership at NTSB and FAA....I doubt it.

2. Availability heuristic.

It's a fallacy.

I like when my classroom neighbor covers fallacies. Her students are in a kind of shock and try like hell to say that *they* don't, um, fallacize. When they all do, pretty much in every conversation.

designing planes that can decide to crash themselves.
