From one of the articles:
”Kirby emphasizes that the issues with Boeing extend beyond a short-term inconvenience, characterizing them as a two-decade-long concern rather than a mere 12-month problem.”
He said the quiet part out loud, and you know he’s not the only CEO thinking it. Start buying BA put options 😉.
I think you misunderstood what he said…. Kirby basically told Boeing to using near-term production slots building -10s and use them on -9s for the time being.
Once the aircraft is certified, then start building -10s again. United also will get some kickback from Boeing for those swaps I am sure…. But the -10 is still happening….
