Boeing Bribes Better

[Carnos Jax]

The gulf region could probably use it more. The pity is that the Airbus product seems to have been the better one here. And from the few (and I stress that) tanker pilots I've talked to, they all seemed to prefer the Airbus plane over the Boeing one. I'd be curious what more of them would say.

I suspect it is a pity win for Boeing, being that it lost out on the JSF contest (there were a lot of Pentagon heads at the time saying they'd 'make it up' to Boeing by giving them the tanker contract).
