Boeing engineered the quality out of their products years ago to increase profits so this will be a piece of junk like all of their other new builds are.
And Albaugh is a flat-out admitted communist. One thing about Boeing, it never met a liberal cause or committed progressive it didn't love. He's the only CEO I know that can openly lose $4B in his first two years on the job and still stay employed.
“A whole lot of nothing new is right. Another tube with wings stuck on it.”
Nothing new other than a 20% increase in fuel efficiency....
20% is an amazing accomplishment for Boeing AND the engine suppliers, GE & RR.
“Boeing claimed the 787 would be near to 20% more fuel-efficient than the 767, with one-third of the efficiency gain from the engines, another third from aerodynamic improvements and the increased use of lighter-weight composite materials, and the final third from advanced systems.”
As for me, I have been working there for 25 years and we DO put out a quality product that can match or better anything else flying.
