Comment on Boeing Finds More Misdrilled Holes on 737 in Latest Setback

Kind of like when you buy an hp laptop, even though HP doesn’t make a single piece of their laptop (or even assemble the things). They just arrange for all the pieces they want from all the component manufacturers and buy the parts and have them shipped to the assembly plant that’s to be used.

… who then needed to figure out how to make it profitable. And the only way to do that is by cutting costs.
