DUBAI, Nov 16 (Reuters) - Boeing BA.N aims to stabilise aircraft production at current levels before advancing to the next industrial milestones as it implements safety and quality improvements, its top jetmaking executive said on Sunday.
Boeing Commercial Airplanes CEO Stephanie Pope told reporters it was too early to say when Boeing would push 737 jet output to 47 a month, having recently been cleared by regulators to reach 42 a month after the lifting of temporary output curbs.
"Getting it better at (the right) pace is better than going fast," Pope said in a briefing ahead of the Dubai Airshow.
