Jalopnik is the Guardian of the auto blogs. And it’s just as believable as the Guardian.

I wouldn’t trust Boeing at this stage. They have serious problems.

It’s just insane that Boeing is still in business. They are horrible at just about everything. But government contracts keep them alive. All while Boeing continues to screw over the government.

“”””Unfortunately for the failed steak salesman””””

I looked up the Trump guy on Wikipedia and it seems that while the steak thing didn’t go well, the guy has managed to recover and pull off some life successes nonetheless.

Love Trump, but god please don’t let his paint scheme for AF1 be adopted. His taste is horrific.

“”””Unfortunately for the failed steak salesman””””

The writer of this piece should do one of those “where are they now” searches on google.

Yeah, his proposed color scheme was a little too dark (or was it the gold?) for my tastes.

The planes could use a refreshed look, though. Mostly same style/color scheme for 60 years. And part of me would like to change it back to his original proposal just to stick it to the current administration for overturning his plans.

failed steak salesman

By that standard, Milton Hershey was a failed confectioner.

Probably it’s taking longer than expected to install the on-board surveillance equipment China paid Hunter Biden for.

They should pick up a couple of mothballed A380s and refurbish them - they would be up and running by the end of next year and serve as another poke in the eye to DEI-damaged Boeing.

A customized A350-1000 would make a great AF-1. Time to dump the dinosaur 747.
