Boeing : Seattle gets the wings, with ranch dressing!

Despite $9,000,000,000 tax break, Boeing is moving the crown jewels, the 1,000 engineering jobs that support the world wide fleet, to California  (where TAXES are higher).

Management:  Chicago
Bodies: North Carolina
After market support: California
Wings: Seattle

Boeing’s view of what will still be in the NW?  “Engineering head Mike Delaney said Boeing still intends to make the Northwest “a true world-class composite center for advanced manufacturing and design.”  Although support of Boeing’s airline customers is “a crown jewel” of the company, it’s not part of the central mission of the engineering role here, he said that in California, Boeing  can tap a large pool of aviation engineering talent.  “We’ll fundamentally do research and development around wing fabrication here in Puget Sound.”

Hunhhh???  We get the wings??  Can we dip them in ranch dressing?

HOW do we convince AIRBUS to build a plant here?
