French Airbus workers unhappy with tanker contract; Make up your mind Frenchy!

Apparently not everyone in France is happy with the US Air Force contract win by Northrop Grumman and Airbus. The union that represents French EADS workers is claiming that the assembly of the KC-45A in Mobile, Alabama will take jobs away from them. First you want us to fly your goofy Europlane, then you're upset when we decide to do it! This is just one reason why many of us (Aaron) wanted to go American from the start. On the other hand, the United Kingdom couldn't be happier with the choice. Now you know why they are our ally.

Somehow I think we'll be posting a lot more on the KC-45 in the near future.
