selling airplane wings with no fuselage, gearboxes without engines or

of doing.

Odd that companies like Senior Engineering and others, seem
to do just that and have done so for years.

The undercarriage on many Boeing planes are made right here
in Gloucestershire. Internal cabin fitouts are done by a
couple of companies. Lots more because Boeing recognise that
they have to spread manufacturing around many of the countries
that buy their planes.

Maybe because we are currently a member of the EU.

I,m well aware of it. I have actually spent quite a lot of time on
site there, I assume you mean Messier Dowty?

Not exactly the most phenominal throughput, so I don't know what
planes they cater for. As the site appears to have a similar type of
layout to Dara and some parts of Broughton, I assume it was tied to
WW2 production and has found a niche.

Airbus really does produce serious quantities of wings though and any
disruption to their shipments or cost increases will undoubtably have
risks. There are plenty of opportunities for ex staff to dress up as
Romans and show tourists around Chester though.

Working abroad on aircraft maintenance/ manufacturing plants, I have
noticed that the last place I went to was a new build and was in a
"freezone" Not a good choice for business if you have free movement
anyway just a hundred miles or so accrss the "puddle".

No, Boeing does that all over the world with plenty of non EU countries.

Well it will in so far as Boeing are committed to spreading even more
work especially to the UK and right now Boeing are a better bet than
Airbus who are liable to a massive fine by the WTO for illegal state aid
and are to be severely impacted if not dragged down by the airbus A380.
