Boeing’s 777 assembly line at Everett, Washington, is reportedly in a state of disarray, according to information published in The Seattle Times on September 9, 2024

The report, which quotes anonymous sources within the company, describes a chaotic work environment in which some airframes are rushed through the production line and need to be completed later outside of the regular sequence, potentially exposing them to production defects.  

The same article also describes how, in some other cases, the process to assemble the fuselage panels for 777 airliners is taking longer than originally planned due to inexperienced labor. The report cites sources as claiming that this part of the manufacturing process has been experiencing regular quality issues for years.
