Boeing aims to deliver 5 Dreamliners by year-end

Boeing has announced some of its staff will work through their Christmas break to reach a 787 Dreamliner delivery goal, Bloomberg has reported. The US plane maker is 'working hard' to meet its goal of delivering at least five Dreamliners this year, Boeing commercial airplanes president Jim Albaugh said. Boeing is boosting output of the 787 following the plane's entrance into commercial service. Workers at the plant north of Seattle that builds wide-body planes were on course to raise their 787 production rate to 3.5 a month by early spring, from 2.5 now, Albaugh said last month.
