Boeing is hiring as it expects resuming 737 MAX deliveries in October

Category: News
Boeing has begun final assembly of the first 737 MAX 8, built on the new production line in the Renton factory. The company plans to roll out the first completed 737 MAX by the end of the year and fly it in early 2016.

 

Boeing said on Tuesday it plans to add extra staff and hire “a few hundred” temporary employees at an airport in Washington state where it is storing many grounded 737 MAX jetliners, a key step in its best-case plan for resuming deliveries to airline customers in October.

The hiring plans are the first publicly detailed steps Boeing will take as it works to deliver hundreds of grounded 737 MAX jets to airlines globally, an undertaking that would amount to one of the biggest logistical operations in modern civil aviation.
