aircraft looked like it might not happen due to export-control
challenges. That’s when a “One Boeing” team
went to work. The result: a global working-together effort that
allowed the demonstration flight to take place as planned.

Shaping flight together
Boeing and Lufthansa have had a close working relationship for 50 years, since the German airline entered the jet age in 1960 with the delivery of its first Boeing 707. Lufthansa has played a significant role in the design of a number of Boeing jets since, including the 737 and the 747-400. That relationship continues today: Lufthansa is the launch customer for Boeing’s new 747-8 Intercontinental.
