Interesting Post.

I sure would hate to see Boeing lose out to those snotty French but
way Company is going, who knows?

Boeing doesn't give a damn about GA. As a Boeing stockholder and having
combed the Annual Reports, I can tell you Phil Condit's decision to relocate
in Chicago has stink all over it. It was a stupid move, and will cost the
company dearly in Tort Claims, since the court system there awards higher on
average than than any other location they considered. There are lawyers that
have relocated to Chicago just licking their chops over Boeing...

There MUST have been another reason, since it sure as hell hasn't helped
Boeing's bottom line or shareholder value. Wonder what pushed the deal over
the top???

And if Daley keeps Meigs as a park, I will eat my hat. He is waiting for the
kickbacks from the Casino boats that will be moored there. Just wait for the
"surprise" announcement in another year or so...

Having grown up across the lake, I have never been a big fan of Chicago or
the Fudgies that go Up North on the weekends. I am even less so now.

Do you think we could get Boeing to move out of Chicago since it is so
anti aviation.

Something like every time we fly commercial, we fly Air Bus birds and
write a letter to President of Boeing about not flying on Boeing
aircraft. Enough letters like that might cause some pressure on
Chicago (If not Meigs, then another GA field with access to city like
Meigs, for GA).
