I worked at BFI, RNT, and PAE.I know precisely how much of a footprint Boeing has in the Seattle Area. Do you?


The Boeing Company's Renton, Washington Factory is a facility where Boeing 737 Next Generation and Boeing 737 MAX airliners are built.[1] Current production includes the 737-700, 737-800, 737-900ER, 737 MAX 7, 737 MAX 8, 737 MAX 9, and 737 MAX 10 models. The floor space covered is 1.1 million square feet (102,000 square meters).[2]
The Boeing Everett Factory, in Everett, Washington, is an airplane assembly building owned by Boeing. Located on the north-east corner of Paine Field, it is the largest building in the world by volume at 13,385,378 m3 (472,370,319 cu ft) and covers 399,480 m2 (98.7 acres; 39.948 hectares; 0.399 square kilometres). This is the factory where the wide-body Boeing 747, 767, 777, and 787 are assembled

Boeing Company

The Boeing Company has facilities at KBFI. Final preparations for delivery of Boeing 737 aircraft after the first test flight are made at Boeing Field.[7] Boeing facilities at the airport have also included a paint hangar[8] and flight test facilities.[9] The initial assembly of the 737 was at Boeing Field in the 1960s because the factory in Renton was at capacity building the Boeing 707and Boeing 727. After 271 aircraft, production moved to Renton in late 1970.[10][11] Production of military airborne early warning and control aircraft based on the 737, such as Project Wedgetail (Australia) aircraft and Peace Eagle (Turkey) aircraft is located at Boeing Field.[12]
Boeing has released a report called “Boeing in Washington by the Numbers,” which is a concise look at the company’s contributions and impact to the Puget Sound area over the past year.

“This report is just a snapshot of Boeing’s deep commitment to its people, and local partners,” said Bill McSherry, Boeing Commercial Airplanes vice president of Government Operations. “As the state’s largest private employer, we are proud to call Washington our home, and are honored to tell the story of Boeing’s dedication to education, veterans, diversity and inclusion. With immense facilities and investments from Everett to Renton to Frederickson and many points in between, we are proud of the profound and positive impact we are able to have in the Puget Sound.”

Highlights from 2018 include:
  • Nearly half of Boeing’s global workforce is located in Washington, making Boeing the state’s largest private employer.
  • Boeing’s Washington payroll was more than $8 billion, with the average 2018 wage more than $99,000.
  • Boeing invested $2.5 million in environmental organizations to support stormwater and reforestation projects in 2018.
  • More than 7,000 service members, veterans and spouses will receive workforce transition services from Boeing-supported programs.
  • More than 800 college and high school interns and apprentices were employed at Boeing’s Washington sites in 2018.
In order to share more information and stories about Boeing’s people, progress and partnerships, Boeing is also launching a new Twitter account, dedicated to Boeing in Washington: @BoeingWA.
so seriously Duramax, were you knowingly lying or truly just that ignorant?
