malyutkaman Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Just saw this story on Yahoo news. I work for Boeing as a flight test maintenance analyst and it was a surprise to me (figures, the people that work closest to the info are the last to know). Anyhow, I've been through the plant many times this summer. Kind of creepy walking through several hundred thousand square feet with no one else there except some volunteers working on the B-29, and B-17. As the article says the plant has underground tunnels for workers to access different parts of the plant without having to traverse the maze of aircraft on the assembly floor. They also access a walkway outside right above the river, pretty cool. I'll ask and see if I can bring a camera and get some photos of the interior before demolition begins and this historic building is gone forever.:cry: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100914/ap_on_hi_te/us_boeing_plant2_1 Cheers, Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
