Boeing better do something fast. Fast means fast. The perception is that boeing is going to not be a viable supplier of big airliners to the civilian market.

But Airbus insists it makes money on every plane.

Huh, I thought they were heavily subsidized by the EU.

One of Boeing's biggest problems in the Commercial aircraft market was the acquisition of McDonnell Douglas and all of their assoiated difficulties. MDAC was a has been in the commercial aircraft industry years ago. I know several people who work for Boeing. They say things haven't been good since.

You have to question any company which supports a lame governor like CA's Gray Davis. I wonder how the europeans electrical rates compare with CA manufacturers electrical rates.

I think Boeing should move all airplane production to China. Their planes would then be 1/2 the price (or less) and Airbus would be buried.

Sound crazy? It's probably only a matter of time.
