Actually, one also wonders what terms were stated, meaning in writing, upon this person's leaving the employment service of Boeing?
It's gonna be high drama if it gets to court, isn't it? And a lot of very tense and quiet drama whether it gets there or not.

However it may all play out, it's really depressing to watch what has happened and is happening to a company that I thought of as the home of engineering heroes from the time I was a kid in an airline family.
