I really wish Boeing defense got spun off, them being under the same leadership is a threat to national security. The infection is only growing as they continue to share leadership.

Could the union elect/nominate new leadership, or are they corrupt these days as well?

Curiously, the Boeing branch that works for defense comes from the McDonell-Douglas buy: pre-merge Boeing main bussiness was comercial airplanes, MD was focused on military contracts. And arguably, all the current Boeing problems come from that buy/merge.

Don't look at their board of directors unless you want to fully realize the magnitude of what you don't yet realize you're saying!

Airbus has the same structure with feets both in civil aviation and the defense industry, like if nobody could make business without those ties.
