Boeing picks South Carolina for 787 line
I do know one thing reported as fact.
Boeing moved most of these contracts from Seattle to CHS and is starting a new factory there with 4000 new employees to supplement the on going assembly plant there for this dream liner.
This was in the Charleston SC paper.
Some consider union busting or what have you,
SC has a right to work law, means no union required.
They were given perks and tax exemptions for this move from the SC government as probably normal.
Read where Boeing Seattle unions said they would not strike for 3 years if they kept the contract there in Seattle.
Offer not accepted, contracts for this moved to CHS.
