fallen behind Airbus; and the #2 defense contractor behind Lockheed Martin (Simonetta, 2006). Net income for 2004 was (mil) $1,872.0, which represented a one year growth of 160.7 percent (Simonetta,
2006). In addition, the constant improvements to each of the next generation 737 models has led to an increase in the number of aircraft provided by Boeing in the
marketplace today. Advancing technology, including new materials, represent systems for improvement for Boeing (Hitt, Ireland and Hoskisson, 2004). Boeing will compete on its ability to innovate. In fact, this is
the major opportunity in this industry - innovation (Hitt, Ireland and Hoskisson, 2004). The forecast for new aircraft is also strong, suggesting a need for more than 12,000 aircraft by
2010 (Murray State University, 2003). The progression of Boeing as a significant competitor in a constantly changing industry reflects the complexities of aircraft design, operation and management and the
integration of new technologies. Development History of the 737 Family 737-100/200 The 737-100/200 is the first generation of airliners in the
737 family, created as a group of short-range, narrow-bodied airliners seating between 100-120 people. The 737-100 has a wing span of 28.35m (93ft 0in), a length 28.67m of (94ft
0in), and a height of 11.29m (37ft 0in). This aircraft has a wing area 91.1m2 (980sq ft) (Frawley, 2006). The 737-200 is comparable, but the length is slightly greater,
approximately 30.53m (100ft 2in). The 737-100 weighs 25,878kg (57,000lb) empty, with a maximum weight on takeoff of 49,940kg (110,000lb) (Frawley, 2006). The 737-200 weighs 27,448kg (60,600lb) empty, with
a maximum weight at takeoff or 52,390kg (115,500lb). The 737-100 is built with two 62.3kN (14,000lb) Pratt & Whitney JT8D-7 turbofans (Frawley, 2006). It can reach a maximum
