Article Photos: Boeing benefits from faster airplane deliveries



  FILE - In this Monday, Oct. 1, 2012, file photo, visitors view the economy class section of a Boeing 787 operated by All Nippon Airways, at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, on the first day of service for the 787 on ANA's Seattle-Tokyo route. Boeing said its net income this year will be bigger than it had expected as deliveries of commercial airplanes pick up. Higher pension expenses hurt Boeing's third-quarter profit, but other measures for the big airplane maker and defense contractor were strong. Profits rose in both its commercial and defense units. The company reaffirmed plans to deliver 585 to 600 commercial planes this year on Wednesday, Oct. 24, 2012. (AP Photo/Ted S. Warren, File)
