No zippy, I’m not “in the bag” for Airbus.

I merely point out the obvious hypocrisy of you Boeing cheerleaders who act as if Boeing is as pure as the driven snow.

People like you claim that Airbus is corrupt, yet you overlook Boeing’s long history of corruption and playing fast and loose to win government bids just so they can ship them off overseas.

People like you claim that Airbus’ “fall out of the sky” for (insert union supplied reason here) when Boeing aircraft also fall out of the sky.

People like you claim that the union at Airbus is socialist, and overlook the fact that the guy who leads the AFL-CIO (to which Boeing’s union is a part of) is a card carrying member of the communist party who openly supports your beloved dear leader 0bama.

People like you claim that Airbus gets subsidies and other “launch aid”, while Boeing gets the same sort of benefits from local, state, and federal governments.

Honestly, I don’t give a rats ass who makes an airliner as long as it gets me from point A to point B. I’ve flown on Airbus, Boeing, Lockheed, and McDonnell Douglas built aircraft and they ALL have their strengths and weaknesses.

As par for the course you miss the point by a mile, I never said Union was referring to their location and the subsidies. Personally I prefer Boeing planes they make it to the desired airport instead of someone’s back yard or the ocean.
