F-47 announced last week, this week Boeing wants to withdraw its guilty plea agreement on the 737 Max fiasco hashed out near the end of the Biden administration. Gotta imagine some horse trading went on with that one...

Sounds like you are on to .... something?

Once Elon buys Boeing the entire evil plot will be revealed.

Sounds like if the Biden administration cared they would have enforced the plea instead of dragging their feet for a more sympathetic administration to gain power democratically.

Just my opinion.

oh wait I found it: O’Connor, a George W. Bush appointee, rejected the earlier deal because it mentioned diversity considerations in the government’s process for selecting a monitor, which would oversee Boeing’s legal compliance in the future.

That's a shame. The Biden admin tried to strong arm Boeing into some DEI bullshite and the judge tossed the plea deal.

As opposed to just continuing giving contracts to Lockheed?


These companies are already monopolies. But frick it, let’s just only use the one from now on.

Can you provide a link to all your “something fishy is goin on” posts during the previous admin?

I just wanna see if you have reliable “fishy” senses.

The Boeing and the Lockheed/Martin prototypes both performed very well in all testing. Either would be a good choice. It’s probably more a decision of keeping Boeing in business putting your eggs in 3 baskets. Lockheed already supplies the F-16, F-22, F-35, Hercules, the new Airforce trainer and a lot of others. Remember that Boeing hit a home run with the F-15EX and Boeing reorganized at the top, giving the boot to their bean counter CEO replacing him with a top talent Aerospace engineer type. Also, Boeing unmanned fighter drones and cruise missiles have performed satisfactory.

Also, Northrup Grumman backed out of the competition, settling for their B-21 Raider contract. So we the USA has 3 large, capable aerospace suppliers, a lot of domestic jobs and we get something of value for the money. It’s not like USAID or Dept. of Education, pissing away billions and not getting anything for it. At least we have something tangible in return.

Watch the All in interview with Howard Lutnick. He said the US was going to start doing business with companies that did business with the US and that’s a big part of what will fund the sovereign wealth fund. No clue if this has anything to do with that but if so, it’s not fishy. It’s the plan.

Why the hell are we giving Boeing any contracts? They get what they deserve. People should be in prison for what they did.

Boeing was a great company known for building great safe planes. (My uncle used to be the test pilot for a company that bought a shite load of jets and he used to always talk about how much better Boeings were than anything else)

Watch the netflix show on them. They bought out MD (which was a shite company whose motto might as well been Profits over People, plane crashes just happen. ) All the Boeing executives were old and retired and somehow the MD executives took over and drove the company into the ground by cutting every corner possible, With a new emphasis, not on building the highest quality planes, but making as much money as possible, even if the planes are complete pieces of shite. It is really incredible.

If you only knew.

Lockheed was just announced as the winner of a contract and didn’t even bother to make a prototype. The company that did make a working prototype is now being paid by Lockheed to make the rocket.

The losing company is getting paid as is Lockheed.

This was DOD making up for not giving Lockheed a different contract

No one will do anything because it’s a club and we aren’t members.
