Thinking of the Apache as a Boeing product is second nature today, but it was weird at the time.

And strangely these rebrands do not always work.....

Although it is donkeys years since McDonnell Douglas [nee Hughes] went away just look at the news stories about the new deliveries of not MD Helicopters products but McDonnell Douglas and MacDonald Douglas helicopters [the latter with free burgers and fries?]

OK we have not talked about deliveries by Sud/Aerospatiale/MBB for a while and Airbus will be odd..... but ask me in a year!
