This factory needs to be UNIONIZED. Boeing in Washington state is unionized, and the workers have a real living wage. Not so in South Carolina! Down in that disgusting state, qualified aircraft mechanics [who have two years of college on top of specific aircraft maintenance training and an FAA checkride passed...] don't have the ability to join a union and ask for better wages. As such, they work for poverty wages.

In Seattle, many workers drive Porsches. How many do you think drive Porsches in Charleston? Try none...they work for beginning wages!

-This is BULLSCHEIZ!

This is why I refuse to fly this airplane. As long as Boeing keeps a non-union assembly line open in South Carolina, I will NOT fly this airplane.

N!
From someone there now, get over yourself. And FWIW there are more than a few p-cars in the lot here. I struck up a conversation with a flight line guy that parked next to me in a 993 just 2 days ago. Locals seem to prefer trucks, though. Different culture.
