The Pride Of The Boeing 707
Most of this information is from the Boeing's historian. I got a chance to interview him over the phone. All though I may not give him justice of all the knowledge he had, I will try my best.
America was introduced to jet transportation on July 15, 1954. The Boeing 707 played a huge role in introducing the world to jet transportation. The Boeing 707 nicked name 'The Dash 80' was flown in 1957, by a man named Tex Johntson. When Tex Johntson flew the first test flight he did two barrel rolls that proved to the American people that jet transportation was safe.
The B707 was faster than anything anyone has ever seen. With 54,000 pounds of thrust and top speeds of 623 MPH, it was fast to say the least. The commercial airplanes we are used to seeing have more than 100,000 pounds of thrust in each jet engine. Boeing went on to win distance and speed records, wowing people around the world.
There are four basic models of the Boeing 707's, which the Boeing Company came out with. Here is a list, B707-120, B707-220, B707-320, B707-420, and also Boeing 707-720. The B707-720 was a shorten version of the bigger B707's that was for smaller airports and shorter flights.
The Boeing 707 was never intended for long trips but they soon were flying across the Atlantic Ocean and the continent. Even the air force would buy the Boeing 707 (new or converted) airplane for general transportation. With the seating capacity of over 141, it was perfect for the air force's general transportation.
Boeing went on to bigger, better, and faster aircraft like: Boeing 737, Boeing 747, Boeing 767, and Boeing 777. It all started with the Boeing 707, the aircraft that is still in our history books. A B707 is in the National Air and Space Museum in Virginia. If you ever get a chance to go, go see the historic Boeing 707.
The Boeing Company makes more than just planes. They also make helicopters, warbirds, and missiles, satellites and spacecraft. What would you expect from the largest aerospace company? Nothing less. Boeing has over 165,000 employees with people in the USA and in 70 different countries. They push the limits with innovations and new technologies. Over 123,000 employees have college degrees and over 32,000 have advanced degrees. So you tell me, if they will continue to amaze us?
If your like me, just reading about it is never good enough. I would love to be in the pilots cockpit seeing what makes the Boeing 707 fly like an eagle. Well, now we can. There is this flight simulator that allows anyone to test fly the great Boeing 707. Give her a try here: http://flythisplane.info

The Boeing B737
A jetliner smaller in size and shorter in range than the 707 or 720, many within the company thought that segment of the market overcrowded with contenders, and Boeing board approval in 1959 for the proposed 727 was conditional on getting preliminary orders from at least two major US airlines. Having secured a commitment from United and Eastern to purchase 40 apiece, Boeing had an escape clause... if 100 727s had not been sold by 1 December 1960 the program would be scrapped. 1960, however, saw`the largest single transaction in commercial aviation history.
The first 727 was rolled out on 27 November 1962, and flew for the first time on 9 February 1963. Delivered to Eastern Airlines in October 1963, its first scheduled commercial flight took place in February 1964. Although designed around an innovative wing, with a triple-slot construction that allowed it to be adjusted in size and shape to fill numerous and demanding roles for take-off, cruising and landing, the 727
used the fuselage of the 707 to reduce design and production costs. The 727 was powered by Pratt and Whitney's newest fan jet, the JT8D, arranged around the tail of the aircraft in a three-engine configuration; a concept borrowed directly from the British de Havilland Trident. Despite significant early problems with the engines, the 727 performed better than expected, and sold rapidly. Combined with the success of the 707/720, the 727 program propelled Boeing's commercial fortunes to new milestones. In 1964, commercial sales for the first time exceed military and government sales. The next year, Boeing passenger airliners became the most widely used: 36.2 percent of all passenger airliners flying had been made by Boeing, compared with 26.8 percent for Douglas aircraft.
The 727 firmly established Boeing as the industry leader. While electing not to challenge the 727 directly, Douglas had designed an even smaller-capacity aircraft having only two jet engines, and was busy taking orders for the new model, designated DC-9. The British had also devised a credible entrant, the BAC One-Eleven, and Boeing seemed in danger of missing a major market opportunity as by early 1965 some 200
DC-9s and 100 BAC One-Elevens had been sold in the US and elsewhere. The response, tentative at first, was the so-called `baby Boeing', predictably designated the 737.
Boeing B737
Approved by the Boeing board on 1 February 1965, the German carrier Lufthansa served as Boeing's first foreign launch customer, ordering 21 x 737s at a price of US$4m each. United Airlines followed with an order for 40 with options on 30 more, and the 737 program was on its way. The aircraft's first flight was 9 April 1967 and was delivered to the two airlines that same December.
With the 737, Boeing again had sought to capitalize on past investments that had been funded in part from military programs, and opted for the same fuselage cross section on the 737 that had been used for the 707 and 727 models. The strategy proved successful in the head-to-head sales battles with Douglas, as the 737 was slightly larger in diameter than the DC-9. Faced so soon after the 707/DC8 struggle with a second round of intensive competition with a better-funded rival, Douglas sold DC-9s at what proved to be unprofitable prices. By the end of 1966 the once dominant company was forced to merge with the defense contractor McDonnell, forming the McDonnell Douglas Corporation (MDC) on 13 January 1967. This would all porve to benefit Boeing.
Boeing 737-300
However, problems for Douglas and the DC-9 did not translate easily or quickly into success for Boeing and the 737. Within Boeing itself, the program competed for financial and engineering resources, and as a
result came to market later than promised and even then with several nagging problems. The 737 was further burdened in its competition with the DC-9 and BAC One-Eleven by US union demands that the 737 carry three flight crew instead of two, a disadvantage that was not shed until 1981.
It would, in fact, be a full 20 years after its launch that the 737 would meet and then surpass the expectations of its designers by becoming the biggest-selling airliner in history. In the mid-1960s, the 737 seemed to be precisely what the company did not need, as along with the SST and the 747 jumbo jet programs it appeared to be dragging the company towards financial ruin.
Boeing B737 New Gen IGW... The fight back.
It is a truism that competition often brings out the best in people. It was as a response to competition from the Airbus A320, that Boeing developed an update to the 737 in 1991 that was essentially a new aircraft alrogether. The turnaround began here. The 737NG encompasses the -600, -700, -800 and -900. Different wings, different fuel capacity, different interior, a family of variants. IGW stands for increased ground weight.
The 737 variants are divided into three generations. The Original models consist of the 737-100, 737-200/-200 Advanced. The Boeing Classic models consist of the 737-300, 737-400, and 737-500. The Boeing B737 NG variants consist of the 737-600, 737-700/-700ER, 737-800, and 737-900/-900ER, nine variants in total.
Boeing B737 New Gen.
The New Gen program replaced the 737 Classic series. Also referred to as the Boeing Next Generation series, Boeing-737 NGs is the abbreviation. To come right up-to-date, the 737-900ER is now the standard 737-900.
Boeing 737 NG/BBJ Boeing Business Jet.
Arguably the most successful "branch" of the family was the BBJ1, BBJ2 and BBJ3. The BBJ1 was similar to the 737-700, the BBJ2 based on the 737-800. The current version, Boeing BBJ3 is based on the 737-900ER. Boeing themselves describe the Boeing Business Jet as a commercially inspired airplane, which brings commercial expertise to a new market, private air travel, the corporate jet market.

Boeing Production Delays Create Big Impact on Stock Holders
Approximately six months ago shares of Boeing stock were trading at $107 dollars per share. This was a significant increase in its post 9-1-1 trading days, when the stock was trading at $29 a share. Record sales, orders and earnings were the primary drivers in the stock appreciation. Boeing and Airbus have both been developing the next generation airliners for the airline industry. Airbus, a consortium of three government countries; Spain, France, and Germany, opted for a much larger plan that could carry 700-800 passengers in single flight. Boeing chose a slightly smaller, more fuel efficient plane. Several years ago, Airbus encountered significant production delays for its A380 Super Jumbo airplane. Now, is apparent that Boeing is encountering similar delays with its' new airliner called the Boeing 787 Dreamliner. News of production delays for the 787 have significantly impacted Boeing share price. Currently, Boeing shares are trading at approximately $79 per share, down significantly from six month ago when shares were selling at $107 per share.
Why did the production delays impact Boeing stock so significantly? One of the main reasons is that Boeing will not deliver the planned quantity of 787's in 2008 and 2009. Boeing will also be subject to penalties for failure to deliver aircraft in accordance with its contracts. There is also concerns that the delays will impact deliveries of non 787 aircraft as well as the factory becomes bottled up with traveled and out of sequence work. This will also negatively impact earnings due to poor performance from cost inefficiencies. Anyone familiar with Boeing knows the impact of production delays based on previous history. Lastly, until the first aircraft is delivered, there is a significant Boeing Production Delays
amount of risk as to how bad the production delays really are. Will delays continually get pushed back or will they stick to their revised recovery plan?
Currently sections of the aircraft fuselage are being assembled and in various stages of testing and qualification. Six aircraft are being built by Boeing to satisfy testing requirements. Aircraft #7 will be the first aircraft delivered to a customer. Royal Air Maroc was the first Airline scheduled for delivery of 787's. Planned deliveries were for October 2008, now the airline is looking at possible one year delay. Boeing is extending leasing contracts on 767 aircraft to compensate Royal Air Maroc for its delivery delays. But, in doing so, profits will be lost and leasing contracts might be extended at no additional cost to the airlines in order to compensate airlines waiting for the 787.
Boeing currently has twenty-one 787's in various stages of productions. Since the 787 launch in April 2004, Boeing has received firm orders for 857 787's valued at approximately $150 billion dollars. These orders came from approximately 60 different customers. The severity of the production delays has already impacted all stock holders of the Boeing corporation in the short term. On the plus side, fundamental technologies being used on the 787 are still reliable and effective. Early in 2008 rumors were circulating that Boeing had a one to three month schedule slip in deliveries and that first flight of 787 Dreamliner would occur between August and mid September of 2008. It wasn't until September 2007 that Boeing admitted that the flight test aircraft had so much work remaining on it that first flight would be delayed until approximately the end of the year. To date, Boeing has slipped deliveries to the right on two other occasions. This uncertainty concerns investors and forces them to think whether or not Boeing has a Boeing Production Delays
handle on recovering schedule. Boeing 787 problems are not within the design as some assumed; material choices and manufacturing techniques are still fundamentally solid and major re-design will not be required. However, the Company has found it much harder to supervise a global supply network in which it has outsourced an unprecedented amount of design and build authority.
Despite current delays, Boeing is still predicting a delivery of 109 aircraft by the end of 2008, just a few shy of it's original plan. If Boeing keeps to this schedule, the current problems will soon be forgotten and the Program will be remembered as an another revolutionary aircraft designed, built, tested and delivered by The Boeing Company - the worlds leading aerospace company. Boeing recently announced first quarter earnings for 2008 and beat analysts expectations. As a result, shares of Boeing stock increased by $3.50 per share indicating that analysts were pleased with Boeing' performance and were starting to believe that the worst of the 787 production delays are behind them. Time will tell.
Boeing Aircraft Models - A Short Glance At The Various Models
Boeing, the American aerospace and defense conglomerate, has built up a truly enviable line-up of aircraft models over the years. Further, while the commercial aircraft are more widely known, the company is adept at producing flying machines meant for non-commercial purposes such as defense and space exploration as well. In this article, we take a peek at some of the various Boeing aircraft models.
Military and other non-commercial models from Boeing - In the military space, Boeing has had some illustrious aircraft models adorning its lineup. Take for instance, the Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress, first flown in April 1938 until its retirement with the Brazilian Air Force in 1968. It is a well known fact that the B-17 was responsible for dropping 640,000 tons of bombs on Germany during World War II, the most by any U.S. aircraft right through the war. The Boeing F-15 Eagle, known as the McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle till McDonnell Douglas merged with Boeing in 1997, is a fighter jet par excellence, first introduced back in 1972 and still used by the US and other Air Force services from around the world. The exemplary services offered by the fighter jet have led to prophecies that the plane will continue to remain in usage till at least 2025. Other defense jets from the Boeing stable worthy of being mentioned include the E-3 Sentry surveillance aircraft, the KC-135 Stratotanker, the Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor as well as the unmanned X-45. Special mention also needs to be made of the various space launch and exploration vehicles from Boeing such as the Delta series of rockets as well as the Advanced Research and Global Observation Satellite.
Commercial Boeing Aircraft Models - The commercial space is of course very well entrenched by Boeing. Our focus here would be on the 7-series of commercial aircraft that Boeing has had on offer.
Boeing 737- Unarguably the most common commercial airliner in the world, the Boeing 737 has been in operation since 1967. Till date, more than 6,600 Boeing 737s have been delivered to airlines across the world. Statistics confirm that there are as many as 1,250 Boeing 737s airborne at any given moment, with one of them either departing or landing every five seconds.
Boeing 747- The Boeing 747 is perhaps the most easily recognized commercial airplane known to mankind till date. Further, for a span of 37 years - from 1970 to 2007, the airplane held the distinguished record of having transported the maximum number of passengers, more than any other airplane, till the A380 super-jumbo from Airbus came into the fray.
Boeing 767- The Boeing 767 has seen maximal usage for transatlantic flights, more than any other commercial airplane. Known for its wide body and twin-jet design, the Boeing 767 is well equipped for long haul flights, and currently has over 850 767s in operation across various airlines around the world.
Boeing 777- The "Triple Seven" as the Boeing 777 is often referred to, is another of Boeing's twin engine, wide body aircraft. Known for its fuel efficiency, the 777 holds the record for flying nonstop more than half way round the world, without refueling.
Boeing Commercial Airplanes' new airplane is the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, a super-efficient airplane.
Own your aviation collectibles - You can clearly see that Boeing has an unmatched repertoire of airplane models. In case you would like to have one such model in your own repertoire, consider taking a look at the high quality, handmade Mahogany scale models of Boeing airplanes. These are replicas of the original model planes and are not to be confused with vintage collectibles or museum quality pieces. Philippine mahogany models in 1:32 scale or so have prices from $100 to several hundred and also have a miniature version for around $70-$80. Just in case you experience any major challenge in obtaining these model airplanes, you can be assured that you will find a huge variety with complete ease on the Internet.

Aerospace Engineering - What Is An Aerospace Engineer?
An aerospace engineer is a highly skilled professional whose functions are involved in all aspects of aeronauticsand astronautics. Aeronautics focuses on the development and production of airborne vehicles that are designed to carry passengers, as well as goods from one location to another. This field of expertise also involves the design and construction of military aircraft that is used for defenses of nations or group of nations.On the other hand, astronautics is concerned with the development and construction of vehicles that supports space travel and exploration. These two branches of aerospace engineering require vast knowledge on engineering fields.
Extensive educational background in the numerous engineering disciplines is a required skill in this field. Knowledge and skills in propulsion mechanisms, flight simulators, support equipment and communications systems are required of aerospace engineers. They must possess excellent problem-solving techniques and effective communication skills. Ability to work well independently and along with the team is also essential.
Aerospace engineers must oversee all aspect of the prototype assembly process like the installation of instruments, engines, and other equipment, and they may adjust changes accordingly to increase strength and efficiency or both, that is why a good foundation on engineering knowledge and skills is largely important. Extensive grasp on advanced computer functions is needed in designing to come up with virtual, multidimensional models. Aeronautic engineers may oversee the manufacture of designs or be deeply engaged in the making of the design. Either way, an aerospace engineer is responsible for the outcome of the design, thereby putting a huge responsibility on its hands.
Though most of the positions require masters or a PhDs, individuals with bachelor's degree can enter into this exciting career. Further studies and earning advanced degree, even after some years of experience, is definitely the right choice to get even more specialized in this field.
Taking your knowledge to a higher pedestal through continuing education is highly essential.
