Boeing is promoting a woman to one of its top jobs, putting her in the discussion about possible successors to current CEO David Calhoun.

Boeing's CEO is missing out on a $7 million bonus because the company's new large jet is behind schedule.

American Airlines says former CEO Doug Parker is also retiring as chairman in April.

Boeing will pay $200 million to settle charges that it misled investors about the safety of its 737 Max jets after two of the planes crashed, killing 346 people.

Current and former Boeing directors have settled a shareholder lawsuit that accuses the directors of poor oversight before two of the company's jets crashed, killing 346 people.

Boeing CEO David Calhoun declined a salary and performance bonus for most of 2020 but still received stock benefits that pushed the estimated value of his compensation to more than $21 million, according to a regulatory filing Friday, March 5, 2021. Calhoun, who became CEO in January 2020, received $269,231 in salary for the period before he disavowed his salary in March. AdThe company said Calhoun gave up about $3.6 million by declining most of his salary and a $2.5 million bonus. But most of Calhoun's compensation — valued by Boeing at more than $20 million — came in the form of stock benefits that will vest in the next few years, assuming he remains CEO. Calhoun, 63, was a longtime Boeing board member before being named CEO after the firing of Dennis Muilenburg in December 2019.

The nation’s air safety agency announced the move early Wednesday, saying it was done after a “comprehensive and methodical” 20-month review process. U.S. airlines will fly the Max once Boeing updates critical software and computers and pilots receive training in flight simulators. The FAA says the order was made in cooperation with air safety regulators worldwide. Anton Sahadi, who lives in Jakarta, Indonesia, and lost two brothers in the Lion Air crash, said it's too early for the Max to fly again.
