Boeing's fall from grace is actually very sad. When I was a kid, Boeing was considered the pinnacle of quality and one of very few American companies that set the bar for their industry.

Agreed, where I was growing up in the U.S. we had a bunch of regional parts manufacturers and Boeing contracts were always prized My dad was a union guy working at one of those factories for a while before it got bought out by a larger multinational corp. AFAIK they ended up shifting a lot of that manufacturing out of the U.S. into Mexico while downsizing the U.S. operations. That's kind of how it goes in that industry :/
