> Boeing is heading towards a government bail out very rapidly.

If this situation comes into reality and the government or another institution does not bail Boeing out, what kind of impact would we expect to see on the aerospace industry and community?

It’s happened in the past - most notably when Rolls Royce screwed up the engine for the Lockheed L-1011, taking both companies down. Both were bailed out by their respective governments( RR was government owned, Lockheed received loans with government backing) but Lockheed left the commercial sector despite easily having the best plane in the market.
