We are offering $700,000,000 of our 1.875% Senior Notes due 2012 (the "2012 notes") and $500,000,000 of our 3.750% Senior

The 2012 notes will mature on November 20, 2012 and the 2016 notes will mature on November 20, 2016, in each case, unless
redeemed earlier. We will pay interest on the notes semi-annually in arrears on May 20 and November 20 of each year, beginning May

We may redeem each series of notes at any time prior to maturity, in whole or in part, upon at least 30 days notice, at a
redemption price equal to the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed plus a make-whole premium, together with accrued
interest on such notes to the redemption date. The redemption provisions are more fully described in this prospectus supplement in the
section titled "Description of Notes." The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. Currently, there is no public market for
the notes.
The notes will be our unsecured senior obligations. The notes will rank equally in right of payment with all our existing and
future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness and will rank senior in right of payment to any future indebtedness that is
subordinated to the notes.
Investing in the notes involves risks. See the section entitled "Risk Factors" beginning on page S-7 of this prospectus

Any statement made in this prospectus supplement, in the accompanying prospectus or in a document incorporated or deemed to
be incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus will be deemed to be modified or
superseded for purposes of this prospectus supplement to the extent that a statement contained in this prospectus supplement or in any
other subsequently filed document that is also incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement
or the accompanying prospectus modifies or supersedes that statement. Any statement so modified or superseded will not be deemed,

not assume that the information in this prospectus supplement, in the accompanying prospectus and any free writing prospectus is
accurate as of any date other than the date on the front of those documents or that the information incorporated by reference is

accurate. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult
to predict. Actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in these forward-looking
statements. As a result, these statements speak to events only as of the date they are made and we undertake no obligations to publicly
update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required
by federal securities laws. Specific factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements include,
but are not limited to, those set forth below and other important factors disclosed previously and from time-to-time in our other filings
with the SEC:

· the effect of economic conditions in the United States and globally;

· the impact on our accounts receivable, customer financing portfolios and allowance for losses of customer defaults and

changes in customer credit ratings, credit default rates and collateral values;

· the impact on our revenues and operating results of changes to indices included in indexed price escalation clauses included

in our contracts with commercial airplane and defense customers;

· the successful execution of our Commercial Airplanes and Integrated Defense Systems backlog;

· the effects of customers canceling, modifying and/or rescheduling contractual orders and advance payments;

· the timing and effects of any decisions to increase or decrease the rate of commercial airplane production;

· the timing and effects of decisions to complete or launch a Commercial Airplanes program;

· the ability to successfully develop and timely produce the 787 and 747-8 aircraft;

· the ability of our suppliers and, as applicable, subcontractors to successfully and timely perform their obligations;

· the effect on our revenues of political and legal processes; changing defense priorities; and associated budget reductions by

U.S. and international government customers affecting Boeing defense programs;

· our relationship with our union-represented workforce and the negotiation of collective bargaining agreements;

· the impact of volatile fuel prices and the airline industry's response;

· the effect of trade and globalization on long-term growth in passenger and cargo traffic;

· the effect of world trade and credit availability on air cargo traffic;

· the effect of declines in aircraft valuations;

· the impact of airline traffic volumes and revenue yields on near-term global airline profitability;

· the impact on our revenues or operating results of airline bankruptcies;

· the availability of commercial and government financing and the extent to which we are called upon to fund outstanding

financing commitments or satisfy other financing requests, and our ability to satisfy those requirements;

· the continuation of historical costs for fleet support services;

· the receipt of estimated award and incentive fees on U.S. government contracts;

· the future demand for commercial satellites and projections of future order flow;

· the potential for technical or quality issues on development programs, including the Airborne Early Warning and Control

program, International KC-767 Tanker, other fixed-price development programs, or commercial satellite programs, to affect
schedule and cost estimates, or cause us to incur a material charge or experience a termination for default;

· the outcome of any litigation and/or government investigation in which we are a party, and other contingencies;

· returns on pension fund assets, impacts of future interest rate changes on pension obligations and rising healthcare costs;

· our ability to access external capital resources to fund our operations;

· the amounts and effects of underinsured operations, including satellite launches;

including Sea Launch and United Launch Alliance, and indemnifications and guarantees related thereto.
These factors and the other risk factors discussed in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus,
including those in the section titled "Risk Factors," are not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause The Boeing
Company's actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any of its forward-looking statements. Other unknown
or unpredictable factors also could have material adverse effects on The Boeing Company's future results. Given these
uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Please see The Boeing Company's
periodic reports filed with the SEC for more information on these factors. The forward-looking statements included in this
prospectus supplement or in the accompanying prospectus are made only as of the date of this prospectus supplement or in the
accompanying prospectus.

SUMMARY
The following summary is provided solely for your convenience. It is not intended to be complete. You should read carefully
this entire prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and all the information included or incorporated by reference
herein or therein, especially the risks discussed in the section titled "Risk Factors" beginning on page S-7 of this prospectus
supplement and in our periodic reports filed with the SEC.
The Boeing Company
The Boeing Company is one of the world's major aerospace firms. Our Commercial Airplanes segment is involved in
developing, producing and marketing commercial jet aircraft and providing related support services, principally to the
commercial airline industry worldwide. Our Integrated Defense Systems segments are principally involved in the research,
development, production, modification and support of the following products and related systems and services: military aircraft,
including fighters, transports, tankers, intelligence surveillance and reconnaissance aircraft, and helicopters; unmanned systems;
missiles; space systems; missile defense systems; satellites and satellite launch vehicles; and communications, information and
battle management systems. Our Boeing Capital Corporation segment facilitates, arranges, structures and provides selective
financing solutions, primarily for our Commercial Airplanes segment customers, and arranges and structures financing solutions
for our Integrated Defense Systems segment government customers.
The Boeing Company was incorporated in the State of Washington in 1916 and reincorporated in Delaware in 1934. We
have a principal executive office located at 100 N. Riverside, Chicago, Illinois, U.S.A. 60606, telephone number (312) 544-2000.
We maintain an Internet website at http://www.boeing.com. We have not incorporated by reference into this prospectus
supplement the information on our website, and you should not consider it to be a part of this prospectus supplement.
The information above concerning The Boeing Company is only a summary and does not purport to be comprehensive. For
additional information about The Boeing Company, you should refer to the information described in "Where You Can Find More
Information" in the accompanying prospectus.
Recent Developments
Two purported class actions have recently been filed in the United States District Courts in the Northern and Southern
Districts of Illinois alleging, among other things, that the Company and certain officers made misleading statements regarding the
status of the Company's 787 program. The Company believes that the lawsuits are without merit and will vigorously defend
them.

Use of Proceeds
We expect the net proceeds from this offering to be approximately $1,183,242,000,
after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and our estimated
offering expenses totaling approximately $0.8 million. We intend to use the net
proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes which could include
investments in working capital, capital expenditures, pension funding, repayment of
debt, acquisitions and other investments in the business. If we do not use the net
proceeds immediately, we may temporarily invest them in short-term, interest-

bearing obligations. See the section titled "Use of Proceeds."
Optional Redemption
The notes will be redeemable at our option, in whole or in part, at any time and from
time to time. See the section titled "Description of Notes--Optional Redemption" in

Upon redemption, we will pay a redemption price equal to the greater of:

· 100% of the principal amount of the notes then outstanding of such

series to be redeemed; or

defined in this prospectus supplement) of principal and interest on the
notes to be redeemed,

plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being

redeemed to, but not including, the redemption date.
The present value will be determined by discounting the remaining principal and
interest payments to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-
day year consisting of twelve 30-day months), using the Treasury Rate (as defined
in this prospectus supplement) applicable to such notes, plus 15 basis points with

respect to the 2012 notes and plus 25 basis points with respect to the 2016 notes.

under the indenture.
