The railroad will get a 'big hook' in there and drag those hulls and cars up the bank in no time. It'll be one of their easier "difficult" jobs.
Media comment suggesting it's no biggie (for Boeing)...
"...even if all of the parts are scrapped, the losses won't produce more than a minor hiccup in Boeing's production," analysts said.
"High on the annoyance scale, but not a major setback," said Howard Rubel, a managing director at Jefferies LLC in New York. The loss of six Boeing 737 fuselages "...is equal to three days of production," he said. "My guess is that Spirit could make up the disruption within a month with some overtime."
Cai von Rumohr, a managing director at Cowen & Co in Boston, said the time available to catch up on the work and the likelihood that Boeing and Spirit have a production buffer made it unlikely that the parts losses would show up in Boeing's full-year earnings.
The company is making 42 Boeing 737s a month, giving it plenty of scope to recoup six lost fuselages in six months, he said.
