cayman airways, comair and india and china have all grounded the aircraft. lots of them in the pipeline. 5,000 plus orders out there now. the company has fulfilled about 350 of these. specific to the u.s., you wonder why we're out here at midway airport? because southwest flies here and they're the biggest customer for this aircraft in the world. southwest has ordered 280 of them. they have gotten delivery on about 30 of them. since we have the last numbers. united has ordered over 100 of these aircraft. those are continuing to fly at this point until we get the air wort worthiness directive, nothing to change that. >> jeff, you mentioned that boeing said the investigation is in the early stages. did they ever conclude the lion air investigation? do you know? >> they have not, no. neither that or nor anything that has come out of this latest one. tells me that they're going to issue an air worthiness directive that the faa has something that they need to say. >> this air worthiness directive comes from the faa or from boeing? >> faa. this is government agenc

comair, cayman air ways, ethiopian airlines grounding the plane. hugely important plane for this company, as you know. 5,000 plus orders, of which only 350 have been thus far delivered. as you report, we are here at midway airport where a 737 max just took off bound for ontario, canada. u.s. air carriers are continuing to fly this aircraft. they believe it's safe. that includes united and american which also have 737 maxes. liz: the canadian transport minister is also now saying that he would have no problem flying one of these 737 max flights but he did say as we reported right at the top of the show, the second they have a cause here, if it has anything to do with the safety of the plane, he will respond immediately. we will be watching all of that. reporter: secretary chao said that's an indication they don't have anything yet. so they don't have anything yet. that's the headline. liz: i know you know this. from an investment perspective, many of you out boeing in your portfolio. they are a little more than 104,000 shareholders of record but put

so has indonesia, as well as cayman airways, ethiopian airlines and comair which operates out of south africa. this is hugely important plane as you know, charles, for boeing. 5000 of them on order. only 350 have been so far delivered across the globe. these planes sell well over $100 million. perhaps a third of the profit for boeing tied up in the aircraft. you get a cold or sneeze. i forget which comes first or after. either way a little problem at boeing is a big problem for the company. charles: jeff, thank you very much. it is a big problem. joining me, erin glibs. portfolio manager for investment services and keith fitz-gerald, and scott martin. let's first talk about boeing. the dow was off 200 points. boeing a substantial loss but coming back. here is my concern as a boeing shareholder. i don't think they responded quickly or strong enough to the lyon air crash. they were sort of defensive. well, it is not our problem. not just for boeing but at some point passenger, airplane passengers will be like, i don't know what is going on here? >> they really blamed it on maintenance on

i'm reading as you were speaking, south africa comair grounding 737 max. they will not fly either along with indonesia and china. what is the secret, the next step the company can make here? they have already said they're not changing their guidance to carriers but do they need to be moring a -- more aggressive getting out in front of this? >> whether the facts suggest it will be pilot error or manufacturing a concern. again this plane is so critical to the future of boeing because this is where the growth is coming from. this is where they're targeting emerging markets. when you see the headlines coming in, they're coming in from emerging markets. that is where the growth is this plane was targeted towards those fast-growing companies. ethiopia was one but many, many others. for boeing this stock has been a total monster, up 30% a year for five or 10 years. gravity can catch up with you. when you're the largest contributor to the dow performance, you can become the largest detractor quickly. investors will watch the data, recognizing this not change the f
