9:04 am
growth business. it's the incredible strength of the aerospace market place. look at passenger traffic around the world is growing at 67% a year driven principally by middle-class people that are committed to the traveling public for the very first time in her life. think every year now we are seeing about a hundred 50 million new passengers and people that fight for the first time. but most estimates less than 20% of the world preparation has yet to take a single flight. when you think long-term growth opportunity here it is tremendous. as a result, were wrapping up commercial plane production and will produce more than 800 airplanes this year will be a new record by the end of the decade more than 900 a year. maria: what does the us do that china steals our intellectual property and forces the transcript technology. for example, china can be that far behind boeing. when we see a chinese jet maker try to compete with you and did you have to transfer your technology in terms of jet making to the chinese in order to operate their? >> it's part to know aerospace

9:15 am
today we are selling airplane 737 maxes in our production skyline out in 2023 and beyond. that's the long-term head of this business and the fact that we have that healthy backlog really allows us to think about long-term investment in the business to sustain growth. maria: one of your goals has been to make sure this business is not to the google. >> for the first time ever get backlog measured in seven years instead of two. making long-term investments, discipline in production rates savanna mentally structure of the business has changed. maria: do you see clouds on the horizon? >> no, it's the long-term sustained growth business. it's been fueled by passenger growth around the world and we see that as a decade-long trend. were also growing in our service business which is we talked about is a significant additional capability for us. our biggest single growth opportunity and services to its nature as a non-technical

9:17 am
dividends and repurchasing shares of stock. the healthy for company and investors goes right back to our people. thirdly, we use cast to selectively make acquisitions of the lot strategy so that cash department strategy has been consistent in tabletop and bottom growth. maria: we've seen averted acquisitions in the supply side of your business and does that take up? >> we targeted areas that we call vertical. this past week we announced joint venture and auxiliary power units and this is example that can grow in our service business when you think about what's valuable to our customers look through this lifecycle lens. that only how do we design but postelection is for them to provide value to our customers. that's what we're seeing strong growth. >> stay tuned for more of the interview with ceo and chairman of boeing when wall street returns.

9:21 am
9:22 am
