{{main|History of Boeing}}

The Boeing Company started in 1916, when American lumber industrialist William E. Boeing founded Pacific Aero Products Company in Seattle, Washington. Shortly before doing so, he and Conrad Westervelt created the "B&W" seaplane.{{cite web |url=https://www.aerotime.aero/articles/32338-story-of-boeing-from-single-plane-to-aerospace-giant |title=The story of Boeing: from single plane to aerospace giant |website=aerotime.aero |language=en |access-date=May 3, 2023 |date=October 11, 2022 |first=Gabriele |last=Petrauskaite |archive-date=May 3, 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230503063832/https://www.aerotime.aero/articles/32338-story-of-boeing-from-single-plane-to-aerospace-giant |url-status=live }} In 1917, the organization was renamed Boeing Airplane Company, with William Boeing forming Boeing Airplane & Transport Corporation in 1928.{{Cite web |url=https://www.historylink.org/file/8023 |title=Boeing, William Edward (1881–1956) |work=HistoryLink |first1=John |last1=Schultz |first2=David |last2=Wilma |publication-date=December 21, 2006 |access-date=January 8, 2024 |archive-date=February 4, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240204065512/https://www.historylink.org/File/8023 |url-status=live }} In 1929, the company was renamed United Aircraft and Transport Corporation, followed by the acquisition of several aircraft makers such as Avion, Chance Vought, Sikorsky Aviation, Stearman Aircraft, Pratt & Whitney, and Hamilton Metalplane.

In 1931, the group merged its four smaller airlines into United Airlines. In 1934, aircraft manufacturing was required to be separate from air transportation.{{cite web |url=https://www.britannica.com/topic/United-Airlines |title=United Airlines {{!}} American corporation |website=Encyclopedia Britannica |language=en |access-date=January 24, 2020 |archive-date=May 10, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200510035622/https://www.britannica.com/topic/United-Airlines |url-status=live}} Therefore, Boeing Airplane Company became one of three major groups to arise from the dissolution of United Aircraft and Transport; the other two entities were United Aircraft (later United Technologies) and United Airlines.

In 1960, the company bought Vertol Aircraft Corporation, which at the time, was the biggest independent manufacturer of helicopters.{{cite web |url=https://yucommentator.org/2019/12/crash-landing/ |title=Crash Landing |date=December 22, 2019 |website=The Commentator |access-date=January 24, 2020 |archive-date=July 27, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200727030644/https://yucommentator.org/2019/12/crash-landing/ |url-status=live}} During the 1960s and 1970s, the company diversified into industries such as outer space travel, marine craft, agriculture, energy production and transit systems.

In 1995, Boeing partnered with Russian, Ukrainian, and Anglo-Norwegian organizations to create Sea Launch, a company providing commercial launch services sending satellites to geostationary orbit from floating platforms.{{cite web |url=http://www.spacedaily.com/reports/What_Happened_to_Sea_Launch_999.html |title=What Happened to Sea Launch |website=Space Daily |access-date=January 24, 2020 |archive-date=December 14, 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181214012227/http://www.spacedaily.com/reports/What_Happened_to_Sea_Launch_999.html |url-status=live}} In 2000, Boeing acquired the satellite segment of Hughes Electronics.{{cite web |first1=Stanley I. |last1=Weiss |first2=Amir R. |last2=Amir |url=https://www.britannica.com/topic/Boeing-Company |title=Boeing Company – Description, History, & Aircraft |website=Encyclopedia Britannica |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190718204814/https://www.britannica.com/topic/Boeing-Company |archive-date=July 18, 2019 |url-status=live}}{{cite news |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2000/01/13/business/3.75-billion-boeing-hughes-satellite-deal-expected.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150503031125/http://www.nytimes.com/2000/01/13/business/3.75-billion-boeing-hughes-satellite-deal-expected.html |archive-date=May 3, 2015 |url-access=subscription |url-status=live |title=$3.75 Billion Boeing-Hughes Satellite Deal Expected |last=Pollack |first=Andrew |date=January 13, 2000 |work=The New York Times |access-date=January 24, 2020 |language=en-US |issn=0362-4331}}

In December 1996, Boeing announced its intention to merge with McDonnell Douglas, which, following regulatory approval, was completed on August 4, 1997.{{cite news |last=Skapinker |first=Michael |date=August 5, 1997 |title= Boeing completes McDonnell Douglas takeover |work=Financial Times |location=London}} The delay was caused by objections from the European Commission, which ultimately placed three conditions on the merger: exclusivity agreements with three US airlines would be terminated, separate accounts would be maintained for the McDonnell-Douglas civil aircraft business, and some defense patents were to be made available to competitors.{{cite news |last=Skapinker |first=Michael |date=September 23, 1997 |title=World's skies are dominated by US |work=Financial Times |location=London}} In 2020, Quartz reported that after the merger there was a "clash of corporate cultures, where Boeing's engineers and McDonnell Douglas's bean-counters went head-to-head", which the latter won, and that this may have contributed to the events leading up to the 737 MAX crash crisis.{{Cite news |title=The 1997 merger that paved the way for the Boeing 737 Max crisis |last=Frost |first=Natasha |website=yahoo!finance |publisher=Originally published by Quartz |date=January 3, 2020 |url=https://finance.yahoo.com/news/1997-merger-paved-way-boeing-090042193.html |access-date=February 22, 2022 |archive-date=February 22, 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220222184520/https://finance.yahoo.com/news/1997-merger-paved-way-boeing-090042193.html |url-status=live}}

In May 2022, Boeing announced plans to transfer its global headquarters from Chicago to Arlington, Virginia, a suburb of Washington, D.C. The company said that this decision was made in part to concentrate on its defense work with "proximity to our customers and stakeholders".{{cite web |url=https://boeing.mediaroom.com/2022-05-05-Boeing-Names-Northern-Virginia-Office-Its-Global-Headquarters-Establishes-Research-Technology-Hub |title=Boeing Names Northern Virginia Office Its Global Headquarters; Establishes Research & Technology Hub |website=Boeing |language=en-US |access-date=May 5, 2022 |archive-date=May 5, 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220505235114/https://boeing.mediaroom.com/2022-05-05-Boeing-Names-Northern-Virginia-Office-Its-Global-Headquarters-Establishes-Research-Technology-Hub |url-status=live}}{{cite news |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/transportation/2022/05/05/boeing-headquarters-chicago-arlington/ |title=Boeing to move headquarters from Chicago to Arlington, Va. |date=May 5, 2022 |first1=Taylor |last1=Telford |first2=Ian |last2=Duncan |first3=Laura |last3=Vozzella |first4=Teo |last4=Armus |newspaper=The Washington Post |place=Washington, D.C. |issn=0190-8286 |oclc=1330888409 |access-date=July 4, 2022 |archive-date=May 6, 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220506062159/https://www.washingtonpost.com/transportation/2022/05/05/boeing-headquarters-chicago-arlington/ |url-status=live}} After the January 2024 Alaska Airlines Flight 1282 and other incidents, one shareholder proposed relocating the corporate headquarters back to the Seattle area in hopes of getting engineering and quality control teams on-site access to key decision-makers.

In response, aviation regulators and airlines around the world grounded all 737 MAX airliners.{{cite news |title= Boeing Scrambles to Contain Fallout From Deadly Ethiopia Crash |work= The New York Times |url= https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/11/business/ethiopian-airline-crash.html |agency= The New York Times |date= March 12, 2019 |access-date= July 2, 2019 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20190606021034/https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/11/business/ethiopian-airline-crash.html |archive-date= June 6, 2019 |url-status= live|last1= Gelles |first1= David |last2= Kitroeff |first2= Natalie |last3= Ahmed |first3= Hadra }} A total of 387 aircraft were grounded.{{cite web |url=https://www.flightradar24.com/blog/where-the-grounded-737-max-are-stored/ |title=Where the grounded 737 MAX are stored |date=March 16, 2019 |publisher=Flightradar24 Blog |access-date=March 17, 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190606085511/https://www.flightradar24.com/blog/where-the-grounded-737-max-are-stored/ |archive-date=June 6, 2019 |url-status=live}} Boeing's reputation, business, and financial rating suffered after the groundings, as Boeing's strategy, governance, and focus on profits and cost efficiency were questioned.{{cite web |url=https://www.wsj.com/articles/faa-wants-to-increase-bear-strap-inspections-in-certain-boeing-planes-11570045320 |title=Boeing Prioritized Costs Over Safety, Engineer Alleges |first1=Andrew |last1=Tangel |first2=Andy |last2=Pasztor |date=October 2, 2019 |work=WSJ |access-date=October 23, 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191015144609/https://www.wsj.com/articles/faa-wants-to-increase-bear-strap-inspections-in-certain-boeing-planes-11570045320 |archive-date=October 15, 2019 |url-status=live}}{{cite news |title= Boeing's credit-rating outlook downgraded by S&P Global |url= https://www.marketwatch.com/story/boeings-credit-rating-outlook-downgraded-by-sp-global-2019-10-22 |publisher= MarketWatch |first=Claudia |last=Assis |date= October 22, 2019 |access-date= October 23, 2019 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20191023141200/https://www.marketwatch.com/story/boeings-credit-rating-outlook-downgraded-by-sp-global-2019-10-22 |archive-date= October 23, 2019 |url-status= live}}{{cite news |title=Boeing survey showed employees felt pressure from managers on safety approvals |url=https://www.cnbc.com/2019/10/20/boeing-survey-shows-safety-workers-felt-pressure-from-managers-report.html |work=CNBC |first1=Leslie |last1=Josephs |first2=Thomas |last2=Franck |date=October 22, 2019 |access-date=October 23, 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191023142702/https://www.cnbc.com/2019/10/20/boeing-survey-shows-safety-workers-felt-pressure-from-managers-report.html |archive-date=October 23, 2019 |url-status=live}} In 2022, Netflix released an exposé, Downfall: The Case Against Boeing, claiming Boeing's corporate merger with McDonnell Douglas led to the crashes through a disintegration of workplace morale.{{Cite news |first=Harry III |last=Hurt |author1-link=Harry Hurt III |date=November 20, 2010 |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2010/11/21/business/21shelf.html |title=The Pain of Change at Boeing |newspaper=The New York Times |access-date=January 8, 2024 |archive-date=January 8, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240108021447/https://www.nytimes.com/2010/11/21/business/21shelf.html |url-status=live }}{{Cite web |last1=Frost |first1=Natasha |date=January 3, 2020 |url=https://qz.com/1776080/how-the-mcdonnell-douglas-boeing-merger-led-to-the-737-max-crisis |title=The 1997 merger that paved the way for the Boeing 737 Max crisis |work=Quartz (publication) |access-date=January 8, 2024 |archive-date=January 8, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240108021447/https://qz.com/1776080/how-the-mcdonnell-douglas-boeing-merger-led-to-the-737-max-crisis |url-status=live }}{{Cite web |last1=Smart |first1=Jon |date=January 28, 2021 |url=https://itrevolution.com/articles/lack-of-psychological-safety-at-boeing/ |title=Lack of Psychological Safety at Boeing |website=itrevolution.com |access-date=January 8, 2024 |archive-date=January 8, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240108021453/https://itrevolution.com/articles/lack-of-psychological-safety-at-boeing/ |url-status=live }}

It further found that the assumption that simulator training would not be necessary had "diminished safety, minimized the value of pilot training, and inhibited technical design improvements".{{cite web |date=September 15, 2020 |title=Final Committee Report on the Design, Development, and Certification of the Boeing 737 MAX |url=https://transportation.house.gov/download/20200915-final-737-max-report-for-public-release&download=1 |publisher=The House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure |page=141}}{{Dead link |date=October 2023 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes}} On January 7, 2021, Boeing settled to pay over $2.5 billion after being charged with fraud over the company's hiding of information from the safety regulators: a criminal monetary penalty of $243.6 million, $1.77 billion of damages to airline customers, and a $500 million crash-victim beneficiaries fund.{{Cite web |last1=Josephs |first1=Leslie |date=January 7, 2021 |url=https://www.cnbc.com/2021/01/07/doj-fines-boeing-over-2point5-billion-charges-it-with-fraud-conspiracy-over-737-max-crashes.html |title=Boeing to pay more than $2.5 billion to settle criminal conspiracy charge over 737 Max |work=CNBC |access-date=January 8, 2024 |archive-date=January 8, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240108022431/https://www.cnbc.com/2021/01/07/doj-fines-boeing-over-2point5-billion-charges-it-with-fraud-conspiracy-over-737-max-crashes.html |url-status=live }}

Boeing's claim was described as "preposterous" by HuffPost:{{cite news |url=https://www.huffpost.com/entry/boeing-737-crash-pain-suffering-damages_n_641373e2e4b00c3e6072bda5 |title=Did Victims In 737 Max Crash Suffer Before They Died?

The airline industry is responsible for about 11% of greenhouse gases emitted by the U.S. transportation sector. Aviation's share of the greenhouse gas emissions was poised to grow, as air travel increases and ground vehicles use more alternative fuels like ethanol and biodiesel. Boeing estimates that biofuels could reduce flight-related greenhouse-gas emissions by 60 to 80%. The solution blends algae fuels with existing jet fuel.{{cite news |first=Ángel |last=González |url=http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/boeingaerospace/2003858756_boeingenergy30.html |title=To go green in jet fuel, Boeing looks at algae |work=The Seattle Times |date=August 30, 2007 |access-date=January 27, 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090405100626/http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/boeingaerospace/2003858756_boeingenergy30.html |archive-date=April 5, 2009 |url-status=live}}

Boeing executives said the company was collaborating with Brazilian biofuels maker Tecbio, Aquaflow Bionomic of New Zealand, and other fuel developers around the world.
