If you read the report, very few are getting forced out. Mostly through normal attrition and retirements like they say. They can get rid of a few, but the strings attached to the bailout don't allow sudden, mass, layoffs. Those bailouts are like student loans, gonna be hard / impossible to discharge in bankruptcy. |

Demand for air travel has evaporated during the coronavirus outbreak, and the aerospace company continues to reel from the 737 Max grounding. The company announced it would cut 10% of its jobs, about 16,000 positions, through a combination of buyouts, natural attrition and involuntary layoffs. The cuts will be deepest in Boeing's commercial airplane unit -- about 15% of jobs. And Boeing said it would drastically scale back production of the two widebody passenger jets, the 787 Dreamliner and the 777. Thread: Orange man says: "boeing good, boeing great!"

Major airlines aircraft that are fairly new are being put in storage maybe for years. Airbus says virus aviation crisis still at 'early stage' PARIS (AP) -- Airbus reported 481 million euros in losses in the first quarter, put thousands of workers on furlough and sought billions in loans to survive the coronavirus crisis -- and its CEO said Wednesday the aviation industry's unprecedented troubles are still at an "early stage." Even after virus-related travel restrictions eventually ease, Chief Executive Guillaume Faury acknowledged it will take a long time to persuade customers to get back on planes. Just how long, he can't predict. -50% [link to mainichi.jp (secure)] I came. I saw. I Concorde.

It was a switch to balance fuel and needed to be switched off on takeoff. Because the third-world airlines did not train their pilots thoroughly, the switch was left on and the takeoff crashes resulted. Note, no first world crashes occurred. Quoting: Peaceplz Unfortunately, aviation and every aviation job except for cargo flying is on the wane. Which is horrible for an entire industry. Boeing is 3% of the US economy. Anyone wishing them bad is crazy. The Boeing plant has never been shut down, until now. They have a new CEO and they are a good employer. And they are an American company. well, circumstances seem to be bulldozing and burying them. |
