Why Boeing and Airbus sales to Iran are a big ****ing deal

Colloquial commentary on President Obama’s recent decision to defy Congress and allow Boeing and Airbus to sell aircraft to Iran – which has already received one 737 out of a total order of 80 from Boeing and 112 from Airbus.

Other Airbus-Boeing news: both have claimed victory in a World Trade Organization ruling in favour of a US claim that the EU failed to act over illegal Airbus subsidies. But it rejected other allegations related to the A380 and A350 programmes. It’s Boeing’s turn in court next… ATW reports.
