I think Boeing has lost it

[CerberusIV]

Well, it looks like the Boeing/BAE bid to supply tankers for the RAF hasn't worked and that Airbus will get the contract.

It's no bad deal for BAE as they have 20% of Airbus anyway. I wonder if this will allow Airbus to get more tanker contracts elsewhere in a market Boeing have long dominated?

In WW2 the Germany thought they headquater for one army was safe from attack as one flank was against the piper marsh 100 miles of swamp which no tank or mobel unit or foot unit could cross. It was than headquater for than Panzer Army. The Soviet sent than calvary unit rideing horses to attack the headquater unit and the germany armour reserve. It was than hightly suff attack
with the Soviet fireing anti-tank werapon from horse back. So sometime it pay to take risk.

I dont see the point at all. are u saying germany and france are in severe economic strife and have no choice but to break a treaty they JUST MADE?

I didnt read about any earthquakes in either country.

The earthquake is than sample. First West Germany is still trying to built up East Germany when they became reuniited against. France is haveing than huge unemployment problem with immiaget settleing in French. I also said no large bussien or government can prefit how much money is going to come in ahead of time or prefit what they expense will be in the future. President Ike as president was the first president to end the huge budget debt from FDR, ww2, and Trueman President. Let say in the last two week of the federal budget than State unemployment fund run out of money and the federal government have to give it money as manstate by law like say 1 billion dollar. The federal government might just issue 1 billion dollar in T-bill to come up with the cash.

then why agree to the terms? nothing significant has happened since they've agreed to the terms. did they just have no intention of ever following them(unsure but I dont think either has met them once yet).

its really quite comical that 1. its happening and 2.ur supporting it.

obviously there is a stupid weak link here.

This part of history that did happen, plus the mount calvary can dismount than fight as infancyman. Many military gramble pay off either in victory or defeat, or than prittly victory(you win but lose so much men and equipment that it is more like a defeat) name after the Uncled of Alex the Great, he invade Italy with 9000 men.
Won the first battle against the Roman lost 3000 men dead, won the second battle against the Roman lost than other 3000 men after the battle he said if I win one more battle I lose the war, he reteat his army away from Italy. The Soviet lost 40 % of their men, destory the germany army headquater and did alot of damage to their reserve unit.

It real life, too many beancounter forget that unexpect thing happen. I study bookkeeping and learn that you are only record present tranfaction and your record only cover the past. German and France are helping the other nation balance they book by giveing then grants so the other nation are saying nothing.

This like than other dumb idear of the neocom in Washington than permant tax cut which will only make dubget debt worst. Than government need the flexabilty
to change taxes and they rate to keep than steady scource of income comeing in. Prop 13 wreack Calf public
school system once the finely in America.
