#Boeing was an aerospace engineering firm that manufactured and sold airplanes. General Electric was an energy engineering firm that manufactured and sold energy and power products.

Jack Welch was a pox. McDonnell Douglas had a terrible reputation for quality because it was run by ex-GE finance people. The new CEO is the current COO. SSDD.
