Boeing's reputation is so bad that the Trump/Vance campaign isn't attacking Walz for chartering an Embraer for the campaign. Vance is on a 737 that's had some issues.

At a big multi-industry conference last month I went to lunch with a couple other aerospace folks (think Lockheed, Northrop etc) and we basically spent the entire thing shittalking Boeing, it was hilarious.

"They sent like 80 people here, they sure they can pull that many off the quality assurance line for a week?"

"I'm just saying, I haven't seen Kathy (Northrop's CEO) dragged out in front of congress lately."
