Boeing CEO: Don't Assume 737RE Will Be Built In Seattle
His paraphrased comments: We haven’t made the final decision about where we’re going to produce the RE airplane. After 42/mo, we do run into some challenges at Renton. We have other options and we will study them all as we think this through. We would study Charleston, Renton and compare with another site. (leehamnews.wordpress.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Build it whereever there is the cheapeast labor. Period. That would exclude even SC--the third world within our own borders. I vote for China.
GE sucks and has been bad for our country for a long time. In bed with Iran for the longest time illegally.
Informative and well stated. Thanks Tony.
GE has announced the relocation of their medical diagnostic business from the USA to China. This includes the manufacture of MRI and CAT scan equipment. The CEO of the division is also on the administration's Job Creation Panel. There are political boundries and profit - we should not confuse the two. Some emerging economies are doing much better at learning from their mistakes and being viciously competitive. I believe Boeing is looking and a state with sunshine and existing long runways needs to be thinking in 20 year terms - not 2-year election cycles.
Build the 737ER in Renton w/unions, Boeing makes $, build in Texas w/o unions, Boeing makes $$$. Seems pretty obvious to me!
Shabby workmanship is China's signature.
At least keep in in NAFTA countries Canada or Mexico please!!
