Boeing’s commercial aviation business faces numerous challenges in the North America market. Deliveries have fallen well short of its competitor in jetliners, Airbus, which continues to penetrate North America. Within a few years, Delta will be flying a majority Airbus fleet, and American Airlines already is. Still, the fastest-growing airline of the Big 4, Southwest, is a stalwart Boeing customer and United Airlines has maintained its strong commitment to the company. The competitive landscape Boeing faces in North America is complex.

For its inaugural project, FLYING Research has released a white paper exploring Boeing’s North American commercial aviation prospects through delivery and fleet composition trends. We integrate data from public filings with analysis of airline buying decisions, regulatory issues, and Boeing and Airbus’ product offerings.
