Don’t worry, its a cost-plus contract. Fed.gov has all the money it needs!

And Boeing wants to compete with Musk and Bezos for next generation spacecraft?

Apparently McDonnell-Douglass has ruined the culture at Boeing.

So, the jets are being built at the Margaritaville plant?

My dad did some work for Boeing as an engineer back in the early 70s. It used to be a place where people were proud to work and produced work to be proud of. Sad.

These the jets ordered by Trump? 747’s (which are generally out of production except maybe for a freighter version).

Another later failed a routine drug test.

What kind of drugs were they making him test? and Why is he still testing drugs, didn't he figure out which ones he likes while still in school??

Their fraud and lies murdered what 400 people recently, and and the result so far has been they charged 1 scapegoat chief technical pilot and he was acquitted.

Why should they care? They know they can be incompetent and lie and cheat and cut corners, and kill people without facing any direct punishment.

There’s a lot of speculation that Boeing is on the way out.

Boeing goes Boing.

At least on employee working on the jets went Bong.

Air Farce One.

747-8 MAX.

Delaying delivery so as to deny their use to Trump who ordered them.

Already delayed at least one year, until the end of 2025.

Expect MORE delays so that Trump never flies on them as Air Force One

We only need one. If B52s can fly forever, so can those things.
