How does "Raytheon Bonanza" grab you? Does "Lockheed F-16 Fighting Falcon" p_ss you off as bad as it does me? Ever been for a ride on a "Boeing DC-3?" How many of you remember when the "Boeing F-4 Phantom II" ruled the skies?
Ever read 1984? Do you suppose Boeing has hundreds of employees in little cubicles, crossing "McDonell" and "Douglas" out of all the history books and airline timetables and substituting "Boeing?"
The first person that stands in front of me, points at a passing four-engined U.P.S. bird and says "look at the Boeing DC-8" is getting slapped.
