I considered buying Boeing stock in 1994, but didn't

I have stock in BA- bought it at 83 - with all the scandal it went down $4.87 today to $371. I know the workers at Boeing are great and the management sucks. The bigger fiasco was the tanker which should have gone to Airbus. Mike Sears (St. Louis military side) screwed that one up big time.
I really feel that the military side of Boeing has screwed it up the most.
I have worked in aerospace and tried to stay away from the military side of things as much as possible. That has to do with the DoD having a file a couple inches thick on me. At one time the DoD told me a couple places I lived that I had forgot about. Long story for another day. -

I like airplanes that don't crash.

That said, they fit in well working at a massive company that is almost as inefficient as the government and can skate by doing the minimum. -

the usual 80/20 rule applies at almost any company I have been associated with - 30-40 percent should be laid offMikeDamone said:

and Boeing is as inefficient as the gov. Most large companies are -

Surprised this bored isn't lining up to give fiery death hot taeks
Airplanes are built by spreadsheet cost-benefit analyses now. Using software overrides to overcome a hardware problem always carries higher risk than just fixing the hardware problem. -

Boeing executives don't fly third world airlines. You shouldn't either.

I prefer hydraulic over fly by wire. Boeing, get your shit together.
Maybe don't attempt rushing a plane or overlooking shit. The fallout way worse.

I like the stock. Given the amount of negative news you'd think the stock would be in the toilet. Not so much. Before the Ethiopian plane jockey crashed his shit because he can't read an owners manuel, the stock was also holding up well against steel and aluminum tariffs. I'm still in profit territory with this one and I think it will shoot back up to it's March high of 440 in no time. Boeing has been through hell recently but the stock has held up well.BennyBeaver said:Would be chinteresting to get your take on the 737 Max fiasco and potential fallout.

Doesn't matter. Planes will be gone within 10 years thanks to the GND. So long Boeing!

Having family and friends that are commercial pilots they say it's the pilots not the plane.BennyBeaver said:Would be chinteresting to get your take on the 737 Max fiasco and potential fallout.
Third worlders fly with the bare minimum in training and logged hours. That's why they went down. They simply didn't know the systems. -
I thought that at first, but Ethiopian Airlines is actually solid and has a stellar safety record, apparently.Sledog said:

The MCAS sensor was disabled due to a bird strike. From there, pilot error drove the plane into the ground.PostGameOrangeSlices said:
