Boeing is facing multiple problems with two aircraft models - the 777X and the 787 Dreamliner. The 777X has experienced damage to a crucial engine-body connection part, leading to the postponement of its commercial launch until 2025. Meanwhile, the 787 Dreamliner has been hit with an airworthiness directive, requiring inspections of pilot seats after an incident that injured 50 people on a LATAM Airlines flight.

Boeing has also faced production issues with the 787 Dreamliner and an incident involving a 737 MAX 9. These challenges have contributed to a 30% drop in Boeing's stock this year. The new CEO, Kelly Ortberg, has taken over amidst criticism and financial difficulties for the company.

It remains to be seen how Boeing will address and overcome these issues to regain stability and regain the trust of customers.
