  1. What (if any) adjustment to the workforce
    will Boeing have to do to ramp up
    787 production?

    Would continuing to shed (or not) employes
    be an indicator towards projected production
    speed?

  2. They will have to hire, at least production types.

    The plan to layoff shop floor types has already fallen apart due to 787 and 747-8 screwups, and as I predicted ad nauseum, there will be no 737 rate cut.

    The problem is, who wants a low paying job (entry level wage) they know they will lose in a couple of years? Given the economy, probably enough.
