Lucky for us, they're not in the South Bay. But the El Segundo satellite facility already had laidoffs last year.


(The Seattle Times) SEATTLE -- Boeing said Friday it will cut its Commercial Airplane work force by about 4,500 people in 2009. The reduction will be made largely through layoffs, though the figure also includes attrition.

"Initial 60-day layoff notices will be issued on Feb. 20, and most layoffs will occur in the second quarter of the year," said Scott Carson, chief executive of Commercial Airplanes in
an internal message to employees Friday morning.
