Share

Boeing has tailored its presence at the 2024 Farnborough International Airshow as the company focuses on strengthening safety and quality and meeting customer commitments, while also highlighting next generation technologies and capabilities.

“We are concentrated on implementing our comprehensive safety and quality plan and meeting our customer commitments. With these priorities in mind, we have reduced our commercial airplanes display and flight demonstrations at the show, and will focus on new technology, sustainability, security and services solutions,” says Dr. Brendan Nelson AO, president of Boeing Global. “The best way to build trust is through high-quality performance in our factories, one airplane at a time.”

Displays and Experiences

From June 22-26, airshow visitors to Boeing’s exhibit will experience immersive and fully interactive product and technology displays spanning Boeing’s portfolio, featuring:

  • Sustainability technologies, including the X-66 Sustainable Flight Demonstrator, Boeing ecoDemonstrator and Cascade data-visualization tool to inform decarbonization strategies
  • F-15 and other defense product and service experiences
  • Cabin products and demonstrations of Boeing’s joint all-domain command and control and environmental modeling capabilities
  • Boeing’s portfolio of freighter programs
  • A full-size 777X interior section highlighting the airplane’s wider cabin, larger windows and spacious architecture. The 777X family has more than 480 orders from leading customers around the globe

Boeing-produced products on display will include:

  • F-15QA fighter jet with two differently configured aircraft performing aerial demonstrations
  • Qatar Airways 787-9 Dreamliner on static display
  • In the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) corral, a U.S. Air Force F-15E, U.S. Army AH-64E Apache, CH-47F Chinook and U.S. Navy P-8A Poseidon
