Whoopee make RR products unaffordable to Boeing customers , how would that help? You don't think Boeing will just suck it up, they will simply pass it on to their customers. Anyway don't airlines buy the engines direct and ask for delivery to Seattle for Boeing to nail to the wings?

RR aren't the only engine fitted to Boeing so if one suddenly becomes more expensive then the other, US, manufacturers will jump with joy!
