I wouldn’t disagree in the slightest with the observation that unions and Leftist workforce rules have hurt Boeing.

I used to be a jet mechanic in the Navy, and while I never knew anything about the innards of a DC-10, something always made me think it was a Frankenstein plane put together by Douglas to get an aircraft into the market.

"[P]arking this fleet will provide significant cost savings over the next several years," Chief Executive Ed Bastian wrote in a memo to employees.

So are they retiring them or just mothballing them?
