Your actions are commendable but in my opinion slightly flawed in regards to this boycott. What effect would this boycott have on US jobs?

Airbus alone creates thousands of US jobs and buys at least up to $6 billion of US products every year. Everything from engines to sub-assemblies. Airbus is an international consortium and such a boycott would also affect UK jobs.

That is the great thing about America. People can do what they want with their $'s.

I have no impact with Airbus. However, I can personally impact other companies.

Do you work for Airbus or a subsidiary?
