We caught up with Boeing’s in-house historian,Mike Lombardi, who shared some perspective on the past and how it just might inform the future.

A Renton-made Boeing B-29 bomber, one of the company's most recognizable aircraft, took part in around-the-world-flight centennial festivities on Saturday, Sept. 28 at the Sand Point NOAA facility in North Seattle.

Lombardi knows his stuff, and he’s respected in the history community as a helpful resource and a straight-shooter. During Saturday’s conversation, he put the current struggles into context.,” Lombardi said, referencing the recent era of COVID-19 and the influenza of a century ago. We’ve seen two world wars, we’ve been through the Great Depression and the Great Recession.I don’t know how many times we’ve been through downturns.

“And that’s one of the things I feel is so important,” Lombardi said. “What I do is be that memory, because Boeing’s going to come back after this, we’re gonna reach back to that culture.”
