I think they are, which is why this is being kept under wraps and had to be reported by WSJ. A CEO would be horribly negligent if they weren't concerned with the future of the company, though. The narrow body airplane produced by Boeing will be the commercial (and mil variant) cash cow for decades. It needs to be done 10 years ago.
