New York (AFP) - Boeing has officially contested a Department of Justice determination that the passenger plane giant can be prosecuted for violating a criminal settlement following two fatal 737 MAX crashes, a person familiar with the matter told AFP Thursday. The embattled aviation giant disputed the Justice Department's determination of its compliance with a 2021 deferred prosecution agreement, meeting a deadline to file an official response by June 13, according to the person. Bloomberg News reported aspects of the Boeing response late Wednesday, citing unnamed sources. "We'll decline to c...

New York (AFP) - Boeing said Thursday it is examining fasteners on some undelivered 787 jets after discovering problems with their installation in the latest manufacturing shortcoming to face the company.

"Our 787 team is checking fasteners in the side-of-body area of some undelivered 787 Dreamliner airplanes to ensure they meet our engineering specifications," the company said.

Washington (AFP) - A Boeing Starliner capsule carrying its first ever astronauts docked with the International Space Station on Thursday after overcoming unexpected challenges arising from thruster malfunctions and helium leaks. The spaceship dubbed "Calypso" rendezvoused with the orbital lab at 1:34 pm ET (1734 GMT) over the southern Indian Ocean, allowing crewmates Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams to enter a while later. "We're ready to get to work," declared Wilmore, while Williams performed a little dance to celebrate the arrival, the third stay aboard the ISS for both of the ex-Navy test ...

Washington (AFP) - Boeing's Starliner crew capsule, which is making its way to the International Space Station on its first mission carrying astronauts, has developed two helium leaks since entering orbit but remains stable and on course for docking, NASA said. The spaceship finally blasted off from Florida on Wednesday following years of delays and safety scares -- as well as two recently aborted launch attempts, before it finally got off the ground. NASA and Boeing teams were already aware of one small helium leak affecting one of Starliner's thrusters, which they discovered following the f...

Der dritte Startversuch des Raumschiffes “Starliner” glückte. Es hob vom Weltraumbahnhof Cape Canaveral im US-Bundesstaat Florida ab. Auf den Livebildern der US-Raumfahrtbehörde NASA war der Start mithilfe einer Atlas-V-Rakete zu sehen. An Bord der Raumkapsel befinden sich NASA-Astronauten Barry Wilmore und Suni Williams. Aber nicht nur sie werden in die Internationale Raumstation (ISS) gebracht, sondern auch ein notwendiges Ersatzteil: eine 70 Kilogramm schwere Urinpumpe. Sie wird dringend gebraucht, damit der Urin der Astronauten in Trinkwasser umgewandelt werden kann. Bis vor kurzem gab es ...

Boeing-Chef Dave Calhoun wird sich in der Krise des Flugzeugbauers bald Fragen von US-Senatoren stellen müssen. Der Unterausschuss für Ermittlungen habe Calhoun für den 18. Juni eingeladen, kündigte der Vorsitzende Richard Blumenthal an. Der Boeing-Chef kann sich auf einen scharfen Ton einstellen: Blumenthal sprach davon, dass der Konzern jahrelang Profite vor Sicherheit und Aktienkurs vor Qualität gestellt habe. Calhoun kündigte bereits seinen Rückzug zum Jahresende an. In dem Unterausschuss hatte jüngst auch schon ein Boeing-Whistleblower ausgesagt, der dem Konzern Fehler in der Produktion v...

New York (AFP) - Boeing's outgoing CEO Dave Calhoun will testify before a US Senate panel later this month to answer questions about safety and production issues at the aircraft manufacturer, the company said Wednesday. The June 18 appearance in front of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations follows an April hearing, in which four whistleblowers alleged there was safety problems in the production of three of the four commercial planes currently produced by Boeing -- the 737 MAX, the 787 Dreamliner and the 777. "I look forward to Mr. Calhoun's testimony, which is a necessary step ...
