The first achievement of the designers was the creation of two B&W seaplanes that were able to take off in the early summer of 1916. These machines were created by the joint efforts of two designers, namely W. Boeing and engineer D. Konrad. And a month after the first flight of machines, these designers organized their own company with the name Pacific Aero Company. But this name lasted only until May 1917, after which it was replaced by Boeing Airplane. The big advantage of the chief designer W. Boeing was that he had a great store of knowledge, since he graduated from Yale University, and also worked for some time in the forestry industry. All this helped him a lot when creating the first air devices made of wood.

The next stage of development took from 1930 in the 1940-ies. The US government was aimed at actively developing and increasing the country's combat power in connection with the Second World War. Due to this, Boeing Company worked with great productivity, mostly bombers were manufactured in large quantities. For this period, almost women worked at factories, as men took an active part in hostilities. Manufacturing of aircraft went on a fast pace, every month 1944 the company produced more than 350 of such machines. As for the production itself, the factories were masked with greenery, which made it possible to protect them from enemy air strikes.

During these years, almost all of the country's aviation enterprises have been merged into one, thus significantly faster and more accurately create combat vehicles. The most famous aircraft company "Boeing" were B-17 Flying and B-29, which were collected simultaneously from several factories.

At that time, a passenger airliner Boeing 737 was designed and manufactured. It is the most massive among all jet planes intended for the carriage of passengers. Before 2013, more than 7,6 thousand of such machines were built. Before 1969, another passenger liner, Boeing 747, was ready. It was already an apparatus with two decks, it had a wide fuselage. All this made this car the largest and the heaviest in the world, it could carry the largest number of passengers. Such indicators lasted for him for 37 years from the date of construction. This record was beaten only in 2005 by an airplane of the type A380.
