Ukuqala i-Jet Age
Umlando waseBeing ohlala eSttle ubuyela emuva ekusungulweni kwawo ngo-1916, eminyakeni engaba ngu-13 emva kwezindiza zokuqala ze-Wright Brothers, okwenza kube omunye wamaphayona ezinsukwini zokuqala zezindiza. Chofoza lapha ukuze ubone okuthunyelwe kumncintiswano we-Airbus.
Kunezimboni ezingaphezu kuka-10 000 ezihamba ngezindiza kanye ne-cargo ezakhiwe yi-Boeing Commercial Airplanes enkonzweni emhlabeni wonke. Indlunkulu yayo isesifundazwe sasePuget Sound eWashington State, kodwa umakhi unezikhungo ezinkulu ezintathu zokukhiqiza: u-Everett, Wash,., Renton, Wash., NeNorth Charleston, SC
Isitshalo se-Everett yisakhiwo esikhulu kunazo zonke zokukhiqiza emhlabeni ngokusho kukaBoing. Ekuqaleni eyakhiwe ngo-1967 ukukhiqiza i-jumbo jet 747, manje yakha i-747, 767, 777, kanye no-787 esakhiweni esinamamitha angu-472 million cubic space endaweni engaba ngu-100 acres of land.
I-Renton ihlala emkhakheni ohloniphekile weBoing 737. Izakhiwo ezingaphezu kuka-11 600 zamabhizinisi (707, 727, 737, no 757) zakhiwe lapha. Lesi sitshalo sinamamitha ayizigidi eziyizigidi eziyizigidi ezingu-1,1 zesikhala sefektri, okuvumela iBoing ukwakha 42 737s ngenyanga.
U-Charleston uyisitshalo sesitshalo sesibili sikaBoing 787 Dreamliner, savuleka ngo-2011. Lesi sayithi sakha futhi sihlanganisa futhi sifake izigaba ze-787.

Lokhu okuthunyelwe kuzokweqa emlandweni kaBoeing ekuthuthukiseni izindiza ze-jet commercial. I-jet yobudala yayiphelile ngaphambi kokuba iqale ngemuva kwezinkinga zesakhiwo ezaholela ezingozini eziyingozi kwi-Havilland Comet yaseBrithani eyakhiwe ngo-1952.
Kodwa uMengameli weBoeing uWilliam Allen kanye nabaphathi bakhe kuthiwa "bathethele inkampani" embonweni wokuthi ikusasa lokuhweba kwezokuhweba kwakuyijetshi.
Ngo-1952, leli bhodi lanikezela phambili imali yokwenza imali engu-$ 16 million yenkampani ekwakheni ukuphayona okungama-367-80, okuthiwa ngokuthi "i-Dash 80." Isibonelo se-Dash 80 sasiholela ekutheni kube yi-jet 707 ye-commercial engines amasosha e-KC-135. Eminyakeni emibili nje kuphela, i-707 yaqala iminyaka yobudala be-jet.
I-Boeing eyenziwe ngezifiso ezingu-707 zamakhasimende ahlukene, kuhlanganise nokwenza imodeli ekhethekile edelele ye-Qantas yase-Australia nokufaka izinjini ezinkulu ezihamba ngemigwaqo yaseNingizimu Afrika ephakeme kakhulu ye-Braniff. UBoing wanikeza ama-856 Model 707s kuzo zonke izinguqulo phakathi kuka-1957 no-1994; kulawa, ama-725, awanikezwa phakathi kuka-1957 no-1978, ayesetshenziselwa ukuhweba.
Okulandelayo kwakuyi-injini engama-727, eyathulwa nguBoing ngoDisemba 1960. Yayiyindiza yokuqala yokuhweba ukudiliza izimpawu zokuthengisa ezingu-1 000, kodwa yaqala njengesiphakamiso esiyingozi, eyenzelwe ukukhonza izindiza ezincane ezinemigwaqo emifushane kunezo ezisetshenziswayo yi-707.
U-Boeing wethule ama-727 ngamakhodi angu-40 ngamunye kusuka kumakhasimende aqalise i-United Airlines kanye ne-Eastern Air Lines. I-727 yayinebukeka obuhlukile, ne-tail yayo ene-T ene-T kanye ne-trio yayo yezinjini ezigibele.
I-727 yokuqala yaqala ngoNovemba 27, 1962. Nokho, ngesikhathi sokushayela kwayo okokuqala, imiyalo yayisengaphansi kwekhefu elilinganisiwe-ngisho ne-200. Ekuqaleni, uBoing wahlela ukwakha ama-250 wezindiza. Kodwa-ke, zathandwa kakhulu (ikakhulukazi emva komklamo omkhulu we-727-200, owawuthatha abagibeli abangu-189, waziswa ngo-1967) ukuthi inani elilodwa lika-1,832 lakhiqizwa ku-Renton, Wash., Isitshalo somkhiqizi.
Ngo-1965, uBoeing wamemezela i-twinjet yayo entsha yezokuhweba, i-737. Emcimbini wangaphakathi kwe-Thompson Site yomkhiqizi ngoJan. 17, 1967, i-737 yokuqala yatholwa emhlabeni. Imikhosi yayihlanganisa ne-christening yizikhonzi ezihamba ngezindiza ezimele izindiza ezingu-17 ezaziyala indiza entsha, kuhlanganise neJalimane eLufthansa ne-United Airlines.
Ngomhla kaDisemba 28, 1967, uLufthansa wathatha ukukhiqizwa kohlobo lokuqala lokukhiqiza u-737-100, emcimbini eBoeing Field. Ngosuku olulandelayo, i-United Airlines, ikhasimende lokuqala lasekhaya eliya ku-737, lithatha ukulethwa kokuqala ngo-737-200. Ngo-1987, i-737 yiyona indiza ehanjiswe kakhulu emlandweni wezohwebo. Ngo-Julayi 2012, i-737 yaba yindiza ye-jet yokuhweba yokuqala yokudlula imiyalo eyi-10,000.
Injini ye-747 ye-jumbo jet - indiza enkulu kunazo zonke zomphakathi emhlabeni - yasungulwa ngo-1965.
Ngo-Ephreli 1966, iPan Am yaba iklayenti yokuqalisa uhlobo lapho iyala khona izindiza eziyi-25 747-100 futhi idlala indima ebalulekile ekwakheni i-jet.
Isikhuthazo sokudala i-jet giant livela ekunciphiseni kwezindiza, ukuhamba emgwaqweni wendiza-moya kanye nezulu eliphakeme kakhulu. Ngo-1990, ama-747-200B amabili aguquliwe ukuze asebenze njenge-Air Force One futhi ashintshe i-VC-137s (707s) eyasebenza njengendiza engameli ngaphambi kweminyaka engaba ngu-30.
I-747-400 yaphuma ngo-1988, futhi yasungulwa ngasekupheleni kuka-2000. NgoNovemba 2005, uBoing waqala umndeni we-747-8 - indiza ye-Intercontinental ye-747-8 ne-747-8 Freighter. I-passenger version, i-Boeing 747-8 Intercontinental, isebenza emakethe yezinkulungwane ezingu-400 kuya kwezingu-500 futhi yathatha indiza yayo yokuqala ngo-Mashi 20, 2011. Laqala amakhasimende uLufthansa wathatha ukuhanjiswa kwe-airline yokuqala ye-Intercontinental April 25, 2012.
Ngo-June 28, 2014, uBoing wahambisa 1 500th 747 ukuphuma emgqeni wokukhiqiza waya eFrankfurt, eLufthansa yaseJalimane. I-747 iyindiza yokuqala yomzimba ebanzi emlandweni ukuze ifinyelele ku-1,500 isiteji esikhulu.
Kusukela ngo-Okthoba 31, 2016, uBoing uhambise ama-jets angu-617 futhi une-457 imiyalo enembile kanye ne-backlog ka-5,635.
Umlando ubuhle bukaBoing.
