Boeing Plans On Resuming Commercial Aircraft Production in Puget Sound Next Week
Boeing plans on resuming commercial airplanes production in a phased manner at the Puget Sound facilities next week. This comes after Boeing suspending operations last month. The company has taken extra precautions to keep people safe and fight the spread of COVID-19. The suspension affected approximately 27,000 people at Puget Sound.

Every plane they’ll build, and every stored undelivered 737 MAX, already has been ordered by a customer. They’re not going to build unsold “white tails” just to keep workers busy and to have ready-to-go inventory to sell.
I wouldn't rush to restart the 737 line until I was sure that every single already built max actually had an airline to go to.......
I agree with you. They need to spend whatever time it takes and fix all the issues. Then we will see the orders coming in.
And build more 737's? I think they are going to have to look at refurbing some they already have and maybe down grade them to non-MAX units to be able to sell them easier.
