Boeing Promotes Markeeva Morgan to VP, Program Manager for Next ‘Air Force One’

Markeeva Morgan, a senior director at Boeing (NYSE: BA), has been promoted to vice president and program manager of the company’s VC-25B program.

He announced his new position in a LinkedIn post and will be responsible for managing the program to build the U.S. Air Force’s next presidential aircraft.

Boeing was awarded a sole-source, $3.9 billion contract five years ago to design, modify, test and deploy two “Air Force One” planes based on the 747-8 airliner.

Morgan joined the aerospace and defense company in January 2018 as a senior engineering manager after a more than 10-year career at NASA.

While at the space agency, he managed the Huntsville Advanced Defense Technology Cluster Project and the development of avionics hardware subsystems for the Space Launch System’s core stage.

He held program management and project engineering roles at Naval Reactors, a joint organization of the departments of the Navy and Energy, from 2001 to 2007.
