The bottom line is that Boeing as we've known it for 88 years is no more. As a Seattle resident, it pains me to see the plants being torn down, to see engineering and sales buildings turned into parking lots where the circus sets up a couple times a year. BAe has done this to Hatfield ( formerly owned by Hawker Siddeley and de Havilland ) , the home of the jet airliner, just to name one significant product made there. Oh, sure, the management said they would *never* close Hatfield. The real estate was worth too much as a business park and BAe wanted to concentrate on defence contracts instead of commercial. Sounds kinds similar. Graham |
