We built the fuselages for the P-8A's here at Spirit Aerosystems....what a fucking pain in the ass, they were....they went down the 737 line and had both lines fucked up for MONTHS. Out of sequence work....travel work...all kinds of nightmares.

We build the forward fuselage (section 41) for the new 787 too....It should first flight in the next couple of months....I wish that I could post pics from the CFF....unbelievable technology over there as they wind/cook those tubes. Pretty cool technology in the Dreamlifter too....it's bizarre to see an entire forward fuselage being stuffed into a heavily modified 747.

Kinda sad to see the P-3 head off but I guess this new one has better range, more speed and more toys.
