"Our first quarter results reflect the immediate actions we've taken to slow down 737 production to drive improvements in quality," outgoing Boeing 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Dave Calhoun said in a statement. "We will take the time necessary to strengthen our quality and safety management systems and꧃ this work will position us for a strong𓄧er and more stable future."
