Stephanie Pope, CEO of Boeing Commercial Airplanes, stated on Sunday that Boeing plans to pave the way for certification of its much-delayed 777X jet program by engaging with airlines at the Dubai Airshow this week, rather than using the event to secure new orders. "We will focus on opening dialogue with our customers and showing progress on the 777X program," Pope said. This statement highlights a shift in Boeing's priorities as the company faces pressure due to delays in its flagship aircraft development.
