Boeing to focus on factory safety and quality at FIA2024

Dr Brendan Nelson AO, president of Boeing Global, said: "We are concentrated on implementing our comprehensive safety and quality plan and meeting our customer commitments.

"With these priorities in mind, we have reduced our commercial airplanes display and flight demonstrations at the show and will focus on new technology, sustainability, security and services solutions. The best way to build trust is through high-quality performance in our factories, one airplane at a time."
