概要

 In the past few days, Boeing's Starliner program has seen a mix of optimism and scrutiny as it gears up for a critical launch. Retired NASA engineer Homer Hickam praised the Atlas V rocket as a "beautiful" vehicle on Fox Weather, expressing confidence that Boeing's Starliner liftoff will be a success, highlighting the spacecraft's promising journey ahead.

However, a NASA-commissioned review reported by WFTV warns that the crewed test flight of Starliner could have ended in disaster, underscoring ongoing safety concerns from prior operations that have plagued the program.

Boeing's broader space efforts face headwinds too. A UK defense official called Boeing a "troubled partner" in the delayed E-7 Wedgetail program, per Breaking Defense, with delivery now pushed to 2026 amid supply chain issues, workforce shortages, and certification hurdles—leaving the UK without full airborne early warning capability since retiring its E-3D fleet in 2021.

On a brighter note, Boeing's commercial side forecasts flat or positive margins by 2026, according to Virginia Business, driven by ramping 737 MAX production to 47 planes monthly and delivering about 500 this year, despite minor first-quarter wiring fixes. GuruFocus echoes positivity for Boeing's defense unit, projecting margins turning positive by 2026 as the company focuses on profitability.

Boeing is also hiring aggressively for space, posting a Millennium Space Systems internship on March 17 for summer 2026 command and data handling roles, signaling investment in next-gen avionics for national security satellites.

These developments reflect Boeing's push to recover amid Starliner setbacks and program delays, with leaders stressing strategic resets at events like the Bank of America conference on March 17.
