Is my Boeing defined pension Taxable in the state of Alabama?

I have paid Alabama state taxes on this pension every year.

Alabama is a little picky regarding private pensions. Only defined benefit (but not defined contribution) plans are exempt from taxation. In these plans, your employer makes all the contributions based on how long you worked for the company, and how much you earned while you remained employed there. All other retirement plans are subject to income tax, including annuity income and tax-deferred plans once you tap into them.

Ask your employer what type of "defined" plan you have.
