I'm interested to know what you all think of the tanker deal. The Air Force decided to give this deal to a partnership between Northrup Grumman and Airbus' parent company, EADS. Of course I'm partial to Boeing ... this was a huge blow not only to a U.S. company, but also a NW staple - even though they're based in Chicago now.

What is your take? Good? Bad? Deserved? It is ok for us to out-source a military project such as this to a French company?
