Dennis Muilenburg, who has been Boeing’s president and chief operating officer, will succeed Jim McNerny as chief executive on July 1. The Puget Sound Business Journal says the appointment is not a surprise, as Muilenburg, 51, clearly has been preparing for the job, including taking a leading role in talking with analysts, and in Boeing’s cost-cutting efforts. After starting his career at Boeing as an intern, he will be the company’s 10th chief executive.

One thing Muilenburg will inherit is a lawsuit by four flight attendants who say fumes on a Boeing jet made them sick, reports The Seattle Times.
