787 Program Chief Replaced At BoeingSEATTLE, Oct. 16 (AP) — Less than a week after announcing a delay in its new 787, the Boeing Company said Tuesday that it was replacing Mike Bair, the programs vice president and general manager for the last three years. Pat Shanahan, who has headed up missile defense systems at Boeings Wichita-based military unit, will succeed Mr. Bair, who has led the 787 program since 2004, when the company won its first order for the midsize long-haul jet, Boeing said. Mr. Bair has been named vice president for business strategy and marketing for the companys commercial airplanes division in Seattle, Boeing said. Both moves take effect immediately. In a statement announcing the moves, Boeing did not mention its decision last week to delay its first delivery of the 787 by six months to November or December 2008 because of production problems.
