WASHINGTON, Dec 17 (Reuters) - Boeing ( BA ) said late
on Tuesday it has resumed production of all airplane programs
that had been halted by a machinists strike in the Pacific
Northwest.
The planemaker had confirmed last week it restarted
production of its best-selling 737 MAX jetliner in early
December - about a month after the end of a seven-week strike by
33,000 factory workers.
Boeing Commercial Airplanes CEO Stephanie Pope said in a
social media post on Tuesday the company has "now resumed
production across our 737, 767, and 777/777X airplane
programs.... We have taken time to ensure all manufacturing
teammates are current on training and certifications, while
positioning inventory at the optimal levels for smooth
production."
