The Arlington, Virginia, headquarters, which will be focused on Boeing's defense, space and security division, will establish a research and technology hub to attract engineering talent and develop innovations in cybersecurity, autonomous operations, quantum sciences and software, and systems engineering.
Boeing will also be closer to the Federal Aviation Administration, which certifies its passenger and cargo planes. The company's relationship with the regulator has been strained since two deadly crashes of its best-selling plane, the 737 Max, in 2018 and 2019. The FAA took nearly two years — far longer than Boeing expected — to approve design changes and allow the plane back in the air.
Since late 2020, Boeing's 737 Max fleet has safely flown more than 1 million flight hours with schedule reliability above 99%. Since late 2020, Boeing's 737 Max fleet has safely flown more than one million flight hours with schedule reliability above 99%. During the first quarter of 2022, Boeing submitted a certification plan to the FAA for its 787 Dreamliner as deliveries of the plane remain halted for a previously identified structural flaw. Calhoun said required work on the initial airplanes has been completed and that check flights are underway.
