Boeing said on Friday it would end production of its C-17 military cargo plane in mid-2009 if it did not receive any further orders from the US armed forces. Boeing said in a widely expected announcement that it told suppliers to stop work on four planes for which there is no firm funding, which it said was the first step in the long process of shutting down its supply chain. Boeing, which has been lobbying the US Congress to continue production of the plane, said the last C-17 would roll off its Long Beach, California production line in mid-2009 unless it won new Department of Defense orders. The Chicago-based company said shutting the production line could ultimately cost 5,500 Boeing jobs in California, Missouri, Georgia, and Arizona. The aircraft, with a list price of about $US200 million ($A263.21 million), is designed to carry large equipment and troops to hard-to-reach airfields. It has been in service since the 1990s. It is one of Boeing's most significant projects, bringing in about $US3 billion in annual revenue. Boeing's defence unit is on track to post about $US30 billion in revenue this year. The company said it is evaluating the financial impact of closing production and may incur costs which are not recoverable from the US government. Its stock fell $US1.07 to $US77.52 on the New York Stock Exchange. Executives said a letter was sent to all 700 supplier companies on the aircraft, directing them to stop work on planes that lack funding. Boeing said it made the decision to begin winding down its supply chain now because some components on the aircraft must be ordered 34 months before assembly of the plane. "No one questions its (the C-17's) operational value," said Ron Marcotte, general manager of Boeing's Global Mobility Systems unit, in a statement. "But we can't continue carrying the program without additional orders from the US government." Boeing has orders on its books to build 44 more of the aircraft. Twenty-six are being built for the US Air Force, rounding off its order for 180 of the planes. A further 18 are to be built mostly for international customers, including Australia, Canada, Britain and NATO.

Very Nice

Yes...it's true...they delayed it...but there's plenty of bonus screenshots to go around. http://www.bistudio.com/games/ofaa.html

I'm still in the process of categorizing all the aircraft. If there is an aircraft that has not been officially retired by it's created country, then it will go in Modern aircraft... ie.. B-52, C-130....etc... Fates

Report the problem to clanservers as they are hosting your site I believe. Also, may wanna think about paying for hosting of the clan site where you may be able to control the security a bit more. Fates

Why?

Well....it's obvious from my stats that it's gotta be SF_Hospital. I like alot of maps, but this one has the best balance between the Escort and Ambush IMHO. SF_CSAR is another that has great game balance. This balance, to me, it what determines how well the map will go over with the players. Sure, there are maps that have specific tasks, and are very unbalanced, and those maps are some of the most challenging to play when things are not tipped in your favor. But, I'd rather play a map where each round could swing either way depending on communication and balls to meet the goal. Fates

I'm glad to see any new post here in the AAO Forum as well as all the other great sims that we have forums for. There are some great things coming out with AAO 2.7 Overmatch.

Post your news, or screenshots, or discussions for debate, and I'm sure well have a great conversation. I'll also have a complete review of 2.7 upon it's release. Fates
