Boeing Co. Chief Executive Officer Jim McNerney said the company will decide where to locate production of its new 777 wide-body jet within three months after talks to anchor the work in the Seattle region failed.

“We have a number of alternatives,” McNerney told reporters at the Dubai Air Show today, adding that the goal is to find sites that provide a competitive price and low risk. “We are going through an evaluation right now.”
