New York CNN —Since its founding by William Boeing more than a century ago, the Boeing Company has had 12 CEOs. What Boeing wants in its new CEOWhen picking a new CEO, the company likely has two pools of choices. Or it can once again pick a leader like outgoing CEO Calhoun, who has a financial background and an undergraduate degree in accounting. Spirit was the only one to comment, but it did not address the possibility of Shanahan becoming Boeing CEO. Culp has an undergraduate degree in economics and an MBA from Harvard, a business background more than an engineering background.

Calhoun told CNBC on Monday that the decision to retire was "100%" his own and that he would be involved in finding his successor. "We need someone to fix Boeing," one major airline executive, who wasn't authorized to speak to the media, told CNBC after Boeing announced the management shake-up Monday. "I want somebody who knows how to handle a big, long-cycled business like ours," Calhoun told CNBC in an interview Monday while announcing his departure. Four-year Boeing board member Steve Mollenkopf, an ex-Qualcomm CEO who will take over as independent chairman of the board, will lead the search.

☆ About 250 Boeing employees were working on Air Force One planes with expired security clearance, report says

Boeing mistakenly allowed workers without the proper security clearance to fly on Air Force One. The company said it alerted the Air Force immediately about the issue and is working to fix it. A Boeing spokesperson said the company caught its mistake earlier this month and quickly reported it to the Air Force. As a result, the Air Force pulled the affected workers off the schedule until their clearances were back up to date. This isn't the first stumbling block Boeing has recently encountered in its work with Air Force One.

☆ Boeing agrees to pay $200 million for misleading the public about the 737 Max
▼ + stars: | 2022-09-22 | by ( David Goldman | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +2 min

The SEC alleges that, following an October 2018 crash of a Lion Air 737 Max jet that killed 189 people, Boeing and Muilenburg knew that part of the plane’s flight control system posed an ongoing safety concern yet told the public that the 737 Max was safe to fly. After a March 10, 2019 fatal 737 Max crash, the SEC alleges that Boeing and Muilenburg knowingly misled the public about “slips” and “gaps” in the certification process of that flight control system. Boeing agreed to pay a $200 million settlement, and Muilenburg agreed to pay $1 million. The fines, though large, pale in comparison to the financial hit Boeing has taken over the years because of the 737 Max. Shares of Boeing (BA) fell more than 3% Thursday but rose slightly in afterhours trading following the SEC’s announcement.

Boeing will pay $200 million to settle charges it withheld information about safety issues in its 737 Max aircraft. The 737 Max aircraft crashed two times between 2018 and 2019. Boeing and Muilenburg purposely withheld information about the airplane's flight control functions from investors on numerous occasions, the SEC investigation found. In 2018, the 737 Max Aircraft, operated by Lion Air, crashed in Indonesia. After the 737 Max, run by Ethiopian Airlines, crashed in its home country in 2019, the SEC said Muilenburg and the company continued to mislead investors about the safety of the aircraft.
