By Michael Baron

NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- Boeing (BA) said Phil Condit has resigned as chairman
and CEO. The Dow component named Lewis Platt non-executive chairman and
Harry Stonecipher president and CEO, effective immediately. Platt has been a
member of Boeing's board for the past four years, and he previously served
as president and CEO of Hewlett-Packard. Stonecipher retired from Boeing in
2002, and, aside from serving on the board for the past six years, he has
worked as vice chairman, president and chief operating officer of the
aerospace giant. "The board appreciates that Phil acted with characteristic
dignity and selflessness in recognizing that his resignation was for the
good of the company," said Platt in the press release. "We accepted his
decision with sadness, but also with the knowledge that changes needed to be
made." The stock closed Friday at $38.39, up 11 cents.

Boeing CEO out
Condit follows CFO out the door a week after hiring scandal; top job split
between two.
December 1, 2003: 8:39 AM EST

NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Boeing Co. Chairman and CEO Phil Condit resigned
Monday, a week after a hiring scandal led to the firing of its chief
financial officer.


Condit will be replaced by former McDonnell Douglas CEO Harry C.
Stonecipher, who retired from Boeing last year. He had been president and
chief operating officer of Boeing following its 1997 purchase of McDonnell
Douglas. Lewis Platt, a former chairman and CEO of Hewlett-Packard, will
serve as Boeing's non-executive chairman of the board.

"The board appreciates that Phil acted with characteristic dignity and
selflessness in recognizing that his resignation was for the good of the
company," said Platt in a statement.

On Nov. 24, Boeing (BA: Research, Estimates) fired Chief Financial Officer
Michael Sears, saying he had discussed the hiring of a senior Air Force
procurement official while she was still considering Boeing contracts.
