Boeing isn't going to park the ac while waiting for an inept third party to provide a solution. Meanwhile the AF is screaming bloody murder.

Like the taxpayer gets the "fines" imposed by the GAO on Boeing back - they just send Uncle Sam an even bigger bogus bill - it's called Government backdoor financing.
Let the tsxpayer foot the bill years are gone now.
