SPOKANE, Wash. -- The Boeing Co. said Wednesday it will try to sell its Spokane manufacturing plant to someone who will continue to operate it.

The company has received numerous offers for the plant and anticipates "serious negotiations" this summer, said Boeing Commercial Airplanes vice president Mary Armstrong.

Boeing is looking for a purchaser that will serve as a long-term supplier of parts needed at its Everett and Renton plants, and would consider an employee buyout, Armstrong said.

U.S. Sens. Patty Murray and Maria Cantwell, both D-Wash., visited the Spokane plant and pledged to lobby Boeing officials to keep it open.
