Traveling 9,000 miles from home is just part of the job. #TeamBoeing field service representative and U.S. Air Force veteran Ed went from Kansas to Australia to support #KC46 during the largest readiness exercise in the history of Air Mobility Command. Learn how supporting the KC-46 in person made an immediate impact during Mobility Guardian 23.

On #EarthDay, we're thrilled to unveil new features in the Boeing Cascade Climate Impact Model, helping make complex topics in aviation sustainability easily understood and actionable. These include "Insights", or guided educational journeys, about four key aviation sustainability topics and reveal the stories behind the data. Explore the new features in Cascade here: https://lnkd.in/gUPsVTcJ

We're optimistic for more sustainable aviation - together. Take a peek at the all-new Humanising Energy Series hosted by World Energy Council. This film, produced for us by BBC StoryWorks, showcases innovations and technologies from within Boeing and beyond. As members of our team head to Rotterdam for the World Energy Congress this week, we look forward to joining energy leaders from around the globe to spur action together toward #RedesigningEnergy for a more sustainable future.

Developed in collaboration with Bluedrop USA, Inc, our Special Mission Aviator Ramp Trainer (SMART) device leverages mixed and virtual reality to create highly realistic training environments for CV-22 aircrews. By utilizing this comprehensive training solution, crews like the United States Air Force’s Special Operations Command can train for high-risk scenarios in a low-risk, low-cost environment.

Our work continues locally to scale sustainable aviation fuel (#SAF) globally. We’re partnering with Wagner Sustainable Fuels to grow the Australian SAF industry. This will help meet Australia’s airline demand for jet fuel, which is expected to increase by 75% over the next 25 years. The partnership also includes support for Australia’s first steady supply of blended SAF produced in Wagner’s Toowoomba Wellcamp Airport precinct in 2024. More: https://lnkd.in/gpZqtiPA

📷 Come along on a journey with us as #Starliner makes its way out of its factory at NASA's Kennedy Space Center and heads toward its launch complex. After our factory doors opened, the spacecraft carefully made its way around the Commercial Crew and Cargo Processing Facility, stopped for astronaut photos, then passed the historic Vehicle Assembly Building, trekked by the Merritt Island National Wildlife beach and arrived at United Launch Alliance (ULA)'s Vertical Integration Facility. Here, teams integrated Starliner to the #AtlasV rocket that will launch the spacecraft and its first crew to orbit on their way to dock with the International Space Station. Follow along for more milestones before #CFT launch! 📸: NASA (Kennedy Space Center), ULA

Watch our team along with United Launch Alliance (ULA) roll #Starliner out of our factory at NASA's Kennedy Space Center and over to ULA's Vertical Integration Facility for the Crew Flight Test. There, teams integrated Starliner to the #AtlasV rocket that will launch the spacecraft and its first crew to orbit on their way to dock with the International Space Station. The countdown is on for #CFT launch on May 6.

Sustainable aviation fuel is essential to decarbonize aviation, and we are increasing our use of the fuel to encourage growth in the #SAF industry. Today, we are committing to buy 9.4 million gallons (35.6 million liters) of blended SAF for 2024 U.S. commercial operations - our largest annual purchase to date. EPIC Fuels, World Kinect and Avfuel Corporation will supply the SAF produced by Neste and World Energy, LLC. More: https://lnkd.in/gkYdezVH

👀 Sight-saving gene therapy research is happening right now ~250 miles above 🌎 on the International Space Station National Laboratory! Oculogenex, a #TeamBoeing-sponsored Technology in Space Prize winner, is using the unique microgravity platform to test a retina injection therapy that would treat early to intermediate dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The research will also teach us more about preventing vision loss on long-duration exploration missions. Learn more: https://bit.ly/3VQNjeB
