I worked at both of them before retiring. Boeing and GE are disfuctional conjoined twins. They both mimic each other's decisions.

I reckon you mentioned 1998 because that is when Macdac took over BA. Because of Macdac legacy leaders, BA is GE. Sad that they have rammed both companies into the ground.
The only plan is to increase share price to benefit executives. Anyone with half a brain knows that Boeing hasn't had the people with the required depth of experience and knowledge to even remotely be able to compete in the aerospace industry since about 1998. Every employee and manager at Boeing has been promoted well above their competency level and largely soley on the basis of nepotism. Boeing's endless project financial failures since 1998 have amply illustrated this inability to successfully compete. Boeing will ultimately breakup like GE did to increase share price. Airbus, COMAC and Embraer will be the future large transport airplane players. SpaceX will be the dominant Space player. So it's just BS and smoke & mirrors to raise stock price until then.
