Boeing Company Funds Extension

Because of continued bipartisan congressional support, and increasing public indications that the U.S. Air Force has requirements for additional C-17s, Boeing has extended company funding for production parts to now include a total of 30 new aircraft beyond the 190 currently on contract until June, 2008. This represents a continuation of the commitment Boeing made when our suppliers were authorized to proceed with production of parts for ten C17s in June, 2007. This decision will protect the option for cost-effective acquisition of C-17s in FY08 and FY 09 through June 2008. Boeing is taking this action at its own risk with no negative impact to the government. We did not consult with the U.S. Air Force in regard to this decision.
