United's cash flow

United airlines plane order may be a ploy to raise cash. Boeing and Airbus are also short.

Raise cash from who? I don't think anybody has any to give.

Boeing has a financing arm.

Boeing: Boeing Capital Corporation Home

Free 737 with the purchase of five 777's. Limited time offer. While supplies last.

United will get the financing...don't worry about that one. 190's...(flown by mainline) to replace some of the 737's parked may also be in the future

If Glen Tilton would just forgo 40% of his 2009 bonus, United could purchase half of the order and Glen will figure out a way to twist the bankers arms for the rest. Don't worry.....and he'll end up with even a higher percentage of the capital raised.

Smart man....even if "a little crooked".

Sounds like "Vince" from Sham-Wow. "If you call now, within the next 20 minutes; because I can't do this all day......"

I'm starting to wonder.

Even the federal government has to be straining under the trillions in bailouts being handed out. Ben Bernanke has been pushing back on the massive debt. Perhaps, he is only setting up his excuse when the system collapses but the current government spend is unsustainable.
