Um. Can I just take your word for it?

I was wrong. Boeing says the 777 was not meant to replace the 767. The 787 is actually targeted at the 767 market.
767 sales are strong enough that they don't expect to "sunset" the commercial 767 line for at least another 4 years.
Sorry, my bad.

And if they had shot you in the heat during your mythical military service, then god would be on our side.

What God? Whose God? Mythical? Like your commone sense or fantasies of the truth? Sure, I agree with that.

The GAO released two findings.

On Friday, 6-13, they dismissed the protest against the awarding Boeing the contract to maintain the current tanker fleet.

On Wednesday, 6-18, they upheld Boeing's protest of the awarding the new tanker contract to Airbus.

The GAO will not rule until probably October, the protest against Boeing being awarded the CSAR helicopter contract.

I've actually saved his ass several times. Some not directly related to combat but that's another story.

This has been an interesting set of developments. From all the available info that the public had, to include the hearings in front of Congress, it seemed like everything was on the up-and-up. Now the GAO, whom is one of the few remaining entities in government that I think we can trust, has come out saying they (the AF) screwed it up.
