Boeing has spent the last year preparing to ramp up production after a midair panel blowout slowed everything down in January 2024. It's starting to see progress.

This figure fell slightly behind January's number when the planemaker's 45 deliveries were the company's best for a single month since 2023, after a period marked by continued production delays. Boeing has continued to struggle to meet its targets in recent months,

Boeing said on Tuesday it delivered 44 aircraft in February, up from 27 in the same month a year ago, as it works to stabilize and then increase production of its 737 MAX and 787 models.

Boeing Co. delivered 44 jets in February, including 32 of its 737 family models, beating its European rival Airbus SE for a second consecutive month.
