13 You build great airplanes, you build strong airplanes and you build airplanes that pilots love to fly. BRUCE DICKINSON Pilot and lead singer of the rock band Iron Maiden; the group’s current world tour is supported by a 747 (above) Over the years, I have watched and learned from the great history of Boeing, following with enthusiasm its many technological achievements that have made flying safer and more efficient. I have no doubt that the next 100 years at Boeing will bring even more innovation, spawning new career paths that we cannot even define today. DEAN KAMEN Inventor of the Segway and founder of FIRST, a national nonprofit organization that encourages young people to study science, technology, engineering and math through events such as the FIRST Robotics competition (above) It’s no exaggeration to say that Boeing and its people have helped change the world throughout the 100-year history of the company. Obviously it has had a huge impact on me and my businesses. Virgin Atlantic took its first flight from London to Newark on a Boeing 747 when the company took the risk of leasing us our first plane. Our partnership has only become stronger over the past 32 years. We’re looking forward to continuing to innovate with Boeing for many years to come. SIR RICHARD BRANSON Founder of the Virgin Group
