Is Boeing’s New F-47 Fighter About to Be ‘Delayed’?
 
Key Points and Summary - Over 3,200 machinists at Boeing's military aircraft facilities in the St. Louis area went on strike Monday after rejecting a contract offer.

-The strike, the first by this specific union since 1996, impacts production of the F-15 and F/A-18 and raises questions about potential delays to the next-generation F-47 fighter program.
 
-While Boeing's CEO has expressed confidence in managing the disruption with a contingency plan, a labor expert cited in the report suggests the high-value F-47 contract and President Trump's political interests could lead to a swift resolution or White House intervention.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

If no one is building something, it does have a tendency to delay the end result. *****rollingeyes*****
