Turbulence at Boeing: Continued grounding of its 737 MAX jets slices third-quarter profits of the world’s largest planemaker

) cut production of its flagship Dreamliner and delayed the arrival of a successor to its 777 mini-jumbo, piling new pressures on a rejigged senior management team on Wednesday as the continued safety grounding of its 737 MAX sliced third-quarter profits.

Boeing has begun taking steps to increase safety oversight in its industrial operations and at the board level, he added.

Core operating earnings fell to $895 million or $1.45 per share, from $1.89 billion or $3.58 per share, a year earlier.Investors on a conference call later on Wednesday will be eager for details on Boeing’s new leadership and efforts to repair its image with the flying public and airline customers.
