During the past 10 decades, Boeing and its heritage companies, such as Douglas Aircraft Co., McDonnell Aircraft Corp. and North American Aviation Inc., have designed and built a wide variety of aircraft. Boeing has evolved from seaplanes to space planes.
Their creations have defended the free world, landed men on the moon and transformed the way that millions of people travel. Aside from being one of the world’s largest companies, Boeing is also the only manufacturer that can lay claim to inspiring both a Hollywood movie and a Broadway play (“Boeing Boeing”).
