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.

It's gonna be interesting to see how this all shakes out. It is time for the unions, as Boeing is gonna have to do, to realize that there are other plants and people around that are hungry too, and that Boeing is in business to make a profit, not guarantee them a job.
Last line of the article - "A feeding frenzy could emerge rather quickly".
YA THINK ??? !!!
Boy what an understatement. Of course those who know me know my vote is for Chucktown. I need a good reason to do more business down there. I'm thinking of renting an apartment near CHS.
When ya coming to visit Wayne?

There are lots of good spots available in Right To Work states. Texas, Alabama, Florida, Arizona are all good spots.
Florida has an essentially unused base Collier-Dade Transition and Training Airport that would be absolutely ideal. 10K+ foot runway, good weather, no residential area to disturb etc. Adjacent Interstate, quick access to seaport.
The real message is go for "diversity". Do not put all your production eggs in a single basket and make the unions compete if they plan to survive.

Actually, KVQQ would be a better site (IMHO), John. Jacksonville doesn't tend to get the hurricanes that threaten south Florida. And the big runway is 12503 x 193. More population around, but the same good access to an interstate and seaport. And a lot of retired Navy A&P and Avionics guys around, so the workforce is just waiting.
But I think we're all in agreement that it would be smart for Boeing to put some more plants around, especially in Right-to-Work states.

This will start everybody talking as it should, but they may be waiting to see what OBAMA and his goon squad at the NLRB does first before they make another stab South. Granted they should but the %^&* unions do have some friends in the upper crust right now, right or wrong. Sad part is, all anybody has to do is look across the South at the growing areas and see both states /cities and people that want the jobs and they ain't working for starvation wages either.
If the unions keep it up they will drive Boeing out of the USA
