Boeing had another weak month for aircraft sales in May, taking orders for just four new planes. The company said Tuesday that it got no new orders for its best-selling jet, the 737 Max.
No, their airlines are not an ancillary product. They are their main product. According to Boeing’s earnings reports, the commercial aircraft segment of the company made up 56% of total revenue in 2018, 42% in 2019, 27% in 2020, 30% in 2021, 38% in 2022, and 43% in 2023. The rest of their revenue is split between the Defense, Space and Security segment, and the Global Services segment.
Prior to 2017, the vast majority of the earnings for the whole company came from the Commercial Airplanes segment. Since then, that segment has been operating at a loss. Since 2022, both Defense and Commercial Airplanes have been operating at a loss.
If you’re curious you can look up Boeing’s 10-k form. Page 56 has the revenue breakdowns.
Not sure if this is serious. Boeing and Airbus are booked with orders for the next several years. They both could not get a single new order and would have work to do for the next half decade.
do you really think that article talking about number of ordered planes suddenly switched to number of spare parts? does that sound logical to you? if you don’t recognize such obvious sarcasm, you really shouldn’t try to deliver burns to others, you’ll just burn yourself in the process.
I wonder what those orders are? They could be mainly orders for extra bolts.
Boeing is the industry in the military-industrial-complex. Commercial jetliners are an ancillary product for them.

Those are orders for the 737. Not parts, newly constructed aircraft. Airbus’s similary sized A320 has a backlog of 7197 according to wikipedia.
Extra self sealing stem bolts probably
100 gross of self sealing stem bolts!
I would trust the Ferengi more than Boeing executives at this point.
And so you should. Our products are of the highest quality.

if you are really not sure whether this:
is serious, then i recommend to not attempt crossing a street without supervision 😜
its a valid question.
“Are they orders for whole planes, or for anything boeing might produce such as bolts?”
Does that simplify it for you? Careful crossing the streets
no, it is not.

long story short: the numbers mean whole aircraft. i hope it is simple enough for you.
Took that real personally, huh
They are for whole planes. As these sales figures always are.
FYI same goes for car sales.
Several years is an understatement. At current rates of production it will take at least 14 years to fulfill all orders.
TIL me & the boys should be building sky birds
