Boeing rival waits in the wings for tanker news

Boeing rival waits in the wings for tanker news: " John Douglass, president and CEO of the Aerospace Industries Association, a U.S. trade group, said Airbus has never built a single plane for the United States Air Force.
'So why would the Air Force want to do that?' he said.
'Would the Air Force want to be in business with them (Airbus ) and be dependent on spares and run the risk of some future Iraq and the French saying they won't give us any spare parts?'"
