In reply to the discussion: Air Force investing $12B in F-15s [View all]Plucketeer
(12,882 posts)17. McDonnell - Douglas
Here's two great manufacturers of aircraft that are summarily dismissed from recognition or credit. A BOEING design??? WTF? Same with the C-17 - you NEVER hear McDonnell - Douglas mentioned when you hear about the fabulous "Boeing" C-17. This is another example of how history's rewritten. And no one seems to be bothered by it!
