McDonnell Douglas insiders ended up with control not Boeing.

Then they turned it over to ex GE execs who farmed out production all over the globe including China which pretty much ended up destroying Boeing's commercial airplane building business.

That “chain of custody” breaks my heart. My mother worked at Boeing, my aunt at Cessna, in Wichita, KS, leaving with a life long attachment to aircraft, those two plane building companies, to Wichita, and with great regard for their own memories of those war years.

Wow. And I used to work for GE Aviation though back then it was called GE Aircraft Engines. I never heard these details.

That’s interesting, that’s what happened in the airline industry where Continental took over United and the United people ended up running the show - into the ground. I wonder if that’s all due to red chinese espionage and industrial sabotage.
