Does Boeing not already have a plant in North Charleston?

The building/assembly line is close to completion and production is slated to begin later this year.However given the problems Boeing has encountered with the 787 nothing is certain at this point.

No, I am going back 20+ years.
IIRC, there was a Boeing plant near the coastal highway,
north of Charleston

It really becomes apparent when it happens to you, eh Jim? That’s the default position of the collectivist-in-chief and his marxist enablers.

Witness history and current events.

Life, liberty and the pursuit and destruction of totalitarians.

Boeing should announce that if they cannot build their business in NC, they will seek friendlier ground in the Far East.

NC or Nothing.

Good eye. It's a microcosm of socialism. Collectives/totalitarians/gangs/thugs/ vs. individuals. It's been going on since the beginning of time. Collectivists of a feather...

Several radio or TV spots I heard on this mentioned a second Dreamliner assembly line. I’ve taken that to mean that one assembly line is already almost built in SC, and that a recent decision was made to also locate the second planned Dreamliner assembly line in SC, also.

It’s not clear, but it sounds like the a decision was made to build the second planned Dreamliner assembly line in SC after unreasonable demands from the union in Seattle.

Nothing for sure, though. Need more info.
