INTRODUCTION This case discusses the history of Boeing and salient forces affecting the global aircraft industry‚ along with the key strategic issues driving Boeing’s competitive strategies. Boeing and Airbus dominate the global aircraft industry‚ but have very different visions of the future of commercial air travel. Consequently‚ the strategies they have devised to manage the competitive environment are disparate. The case provides a unique opportunity to explore these differences‚ how

This is due to a series of consolidations in the European aerospace industry‚ As well as the acquisition of McDonnell Douglas by Boeing in 1997. Another factor that led to this duopoly was the withdrawal of smaller competitors such as Lockheed Martin and Covair. William Boeing founded Boeing in
