"is moving Boeing commercial aircraft production out of the country." - RLK

You've confused Boeing's obligatory establishment of manufacturing for a single component (out of millions per aircraft) in each of its overseas customers - with Boeing moving ALL AIRCRAFT PRODUCTION overseas.

Boeing is still building its aircraft here in America. Now, in the future, and as always in past, Boeing continues to set up small manufacturing operations in each client country, such that the client country can legitimately say that they helped build the aircraft in their fleet. This is an age-old Boeing policy.

But in no way, shape, or form does it mean that Boeing is no longer going to be building its aircraft here in America.

Boeing just laid off 32,000 people. The work is being sent out of the country. Boeing field that the airplanes produced here flew out of for delivery is being rumored to be converted to a site for condominiums. The deal is being negotiated. That's condominiums, no condoms. Read the God damed financial and industry news for Crist sake.
