This week, Boeing selected Charleston, South Carolina, as the location for the second 787 line. Not surprisingly, Jon Ostrower (aka Flightblogger) is all over it. (First Post, Second Post)
ALPA has come out to defend the pilots of Northwest flight 188, who have had their ATPs revoked (they can get them reinstated). Delta also stated in a press release that they would be terminated.
In other union news, the IAM withdrew a bid for a union election for some of Delta’s workers.
Anyone surprised that yet again Boeing chose to build someplace other than Washington state?
