US Cars have been an international joke since the 70s. And Boeing’s success is largely in contrast to McDonald Douglas, which crapped out back in the 90s and was forced into a merger to get bailed out. This isn’t an issue of “American Quality” so much as it is an issue of “Traditional manufacturing methodology” being whittled away over time by profit-obsessed shareholders and C-levels.
Boeing was a little late to the party, but that’s got nothing to do with American symbology. Everyone from Intel to Burger King have been on this trajectory for decades.
Hope it was worth jacking up their stock price for five minutes.
It was for the CEOs who already cashed out and abandoned the company, yes.
