Dreamliner Nears Production

"Larry Dighera" wrote

In a nod to the globalized economy, Boeing is taking a novel step
for the company and allowing outside contractors -- many of them
overseas -- to design and build 70 percent of the Dreamliner. The
wings will come from Japan. Huge parts of the aircraft's body will
arrive from Italy. Britain will deliver engines, and China will
contribute rudders. France is producing the landing gear...

It is fitting, that France is building the landing gear. Seems like their
latest project can't quite get off the ground....
