then. I think they're doing something in cahoots with the admin to boost his job created numbers before the election. Seems like a lot of sudden hiring by repub sympathetic corporations going on. Bush and company have made me this cynical. Not to mention Boeing is one of corporations that benefits from war.

2. Civilian aircraft? Defense?
I keep hearing how persistently high fuel costs help Boeing because the new 7X7 series aircraft are more fuel efficient, but is anybody making enough money in the airline business to lease new a/c?

4. Probably military for isn't Boeing losing much of the civilian business
to Air-Bus? A fine example of our tax dollars hard at work creating thousands of jobs to better and more efficiently kill our enemies, real and perceived.
