Inkampani yeBoeing ekugqibeleni uye walahla iirobhothi ezazisetyenziselwa ukudibanisa amacandelo amabini aphambili e-fuselage kwi-Boeing 777 kunye ne-777X yenqwelo-moya ethatha ixesha elide.
Elona qumrhu likhulu le-aerospace laseMelika libuyele emsebenzini wabantu kwakhona, emva kweminyaka yomzabalazo wenkqubo yerobhothi eyathi yabhangisa ijethi yayo enkulu eyi-777X.
Ngokungafanelekanga ebizwa ngokuba yi-FAUB, okanye i-Fuselage Automated Upright Build, inkqubo yaziswa ngomdla omkhulu kwiminyaka emine eyadlulayo, yabhengezwa njengomzekelo womoya omtsha we-Boeing. Yayibonisa iirobhothi ezisebenza ngamxhelo-mnye ukugrumba imingxunya ngokuchanekileyo kwaye idibanise isakhelo sangaphandle seejethi ezibanzi.
Kodwa iirobhothi eziphezulu - ezenziwe yinkampani esekelwe eJamani - zazingenakho ukuchaneka okudumileyo kweJamani kunye nomgangatho. Abazange bakwazi ukulungelelanisa imingxuma yokugrumba kunye nokufaka izinto zokubopha, nto leyo eyafak' isandla ekuqengqelekeni kwekhephu lomsebenzi wokubambisa ekwakufuneka ugqitywe ngabantu.
Ukubuyela emva ngo-2016, kwaxelwa ukuba iingxaki zazidibana kumgca wendibano yokugqibela kaBoeing. “I-FAUB sisilele ngendlela eyoyikekayo,” wavuma omnye umsebenzi waseBoeing ngelo xesha. Baqhubeka nokunyanzela ezi nqwelomoya zingekagqitywa, zonakele kuthi.
Omnye umakhakhakhakhakhakhakhakhakhakhakhakhakhakhakhakha wathi icandelo ngalinye liphuma kwi-FAUB namakhulu emisebenzi engagqitywanga. “Liphupha elibi,” watsho.
Ngoku, iBoeing iya kuthembela kubasebenzi abanezakhono kwakhona ukuba bafake iziqhoboshi ngesandla kwimingxunya egrunjwe yinkqubo eyaziwa ngokuba "ziingoma eziguqukayo." Ngelixa isenziwa ngokuzenzekelayo, ayinkulu kwaye izimele njenge-FAUB ephosakeleyo.
Abaphathi abaphezulu bomenzi wenqwelomoya bayavuma ukuba iFAUB yayingaphumeleli ngokupheleleyo. “Kwakunzima. Kuthathe iminyaka ebomini bam, ”utshilo uJason Clark, usekela mongameli we-Boeing ophethe imveliso ye-777X.
Uluhlu olude lwe-777X kwasekuqaleni lwalucwangciselwe ukwenza inqwelomoya yovavanyo lokuqala kweli hlobo, kodwa yahlehliswa kwade kwangowama-2020 ngenxa yemiba yenjini yayo yoMbane Jikelele. Akukacaci ukuba isityhilelo samva nje siza kubangela ulibaziseko olungakumbi.
Ithengiswe njengendlalifa eyonga kakhulu amafutha kwimodeli ethengiswa kakhulu ye-777, i-777X ibonelela ngezihlalo zabakhweli abangama-365 kwaye inoluhlu olungaphezulu kwe-16,000km.
