Boeing:
Study Projects That As Oil Prices Climb, 767 Tanker Most Cost
Efficient
ST.
LOUIS, March 17, 2008 -- Boeing [NYSE: BA] reports that the U.S.
Air Force likely would pay up to $30 billion more in fuel bills
over 40 years to operate a fleet of 179 Airbus A330-200 aerial
refueling tankers, compared to a similar number of tankers based
on the Boeing 767-200ER.
This
assessment is based on a Conklin & de Decker Aviation Information
study, funded by Boeing, that calculated the Air Force's cost
with oil at $100 per barrel and $125 per barrel. Oil prices hit
a record high last week above $110 a barrel, and many analysts
expect prices to continue climbing. .
Conklin & de Decker, an independent aviation research company,
recently recalculated fuel price costs for the Boeing 767-200ER
and the Airbus A330-200, popular commercial twin-aisle aircraft
that are being converted to military aerial refueling tankers.
They fly about the same distance, but the larger, heavier A330
is less fuel efficient than the 767-200ER. As a result, the A330-200
consumes 24 percent more fuel per trip than the 767-200ER.
The
study also factored in estimated costs of refining, transportation,
storage, handling and fueling the aircraft. It concluded the estimated
price per gallon at $3.11 with oil costing $100 per barrel would
cost the Air Force about $25 billion dollar more over the 40-year
service life of 179 Airbus A330-200 tankers, and $29.8 billion
more with oil at $125 a barrel. The Air Force previously estimated
that it pays an additional $600 million a year for each $10 per
barrel increase.
In
January, Boeing funded and released a 53-page study by Conklin
& de Decker that showed Boeing's 767 airplane consumed 24 percent
less fuel than the larger A330 and would save about $14.6 billion
in fuel costs over 40 years. The study used published data to
calculate the fuel consumption of flying a fleet of 179 767-200ER
and Airbus A330-200 aircraft over a 40-year service life. The
Air Force's Request for Proposal called for a highly capable,
medium-sized, low-risk and low-cost refueling tanker to replace
its aging fleet of KC-135 tankers.
On
Feb. 29, the Air Force selected Northrop Grumman-EADS to build
179 next-generation A330 tankers. In briefing Boeing on their
decision, Air Force evaluators acknowledged that they placed little
value on fuel and maintenance lifecycle costs, despite paying
$6.6 billion on aviation fuel in 2006.
Boeing
has filed a formal protest with the Government Accountability
Office, asking the agency to review the Air Force's decision.
"Based
upon what we have seen, we continue to believe we submitted the
most capable, the lowest risk and lowest cost airplane as measured
against the Air Force's Request for Proposal," said Mark McGraw,
vice president, Boeing Tanker Programs. "This latest estimate
in increased life-cycle costs for the Airbus plane adds to our
fundamental concerns with the Air Force's evaluation and decision."

Factor
1 -- Mission Capability Approved by the Air Force
Boeing
scores "Blue (Exceptional) and Low Risk" in this area -- the highest
possible rating.
Boeing exceeded all Key Performance Parameters .
Boeing possesses significantly more strengths (discriminators)
than the competitor
Factor
2 -KC-767 Tanker Risk "LOW" Approved by the Air Force
Boeing's
KC-767 Tanker risk approved "Low." by the Air Force
Factor
3 - Past Performance
Boeing's
past performance "Satisfactory." approved by the Air Force
Northrop
Grumman/Airbus never delivered a tanker with a refueling boom
- the record should be shown as "not able to approve for
them."
Press
reports indicate that some of the most relevant programs for Airbus
(the KC-30 for Australia and the A-400M) are both significantly
over cost and behind schedule.
Factor
4 -- Cost/Price
As
determined by the RFP, "Most Probable Life Cycle Cost" (MPLCC)
was the only measure of cost to be assessed.
The
Air Force described the cost visibility information Boeing provided
as "unprecedented" and rated Boeing's MPLCC cost "Reasonable,"
"Balanced," and meeting "Realism" criteria -- all the highest
ratings a competitor can receive.
As
recognized by the Air Force itself in 2002, the significantly
bigger A-330 would demand a greater infrastructure investment
with dramatically lower operational effectiveness.
Factor
5 -- Integrated Assessment
The
model used by the Air Force to judge tanker "fleet effectiveness"
was developed and is maintained by Northrop Grumman.
The
mission scenarios and operational constraints to be used with
the model issued in the draft RFP to judge tanker "fleet effectiveness"
were based upon the 2005 Air Mobility Command "Mobility Capabilities
Study" (MCS).
Before
and after the RFP release, changes to the model's parameters occurred
so as to allow a "greater variety of aircraft to be considered"
-- in essence to allow larger aircraft to compete. However the
Air Force promised that it would tie the numerical output of the
model back to real-world constraints by weighing "insights and
observations."
The
inherent complexities of the model have made its results inconsistent
and un-repeatable and its overall operational relevance questionable.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
The subsidies
in question include those relating to the entire family of Airbus
products (A300 through the A380) (3) . According to the request
for consultations from the United States, measures by the EC and
the member States provide subsidies that are inconsistent with
their obligations under the SCM Agreement and GATT 1994. The measures
include: the provision of financing for design and development
to Airbus companies (“launch aid”); the provision of grants and
government-provided goods and services to develop, expand, and
upgrade Airbus manufacturing sites for the development and production
of the Airbus A380; the provision of loans on preferential terms;
the assumption and forgiveness of debt resulting from launch and
other large civil aircraft production and development financing;
the provision of equity infusions and grants; the provision of
research and development loans and grants in support of large
civil aircraft development, directly for the benefit of Airbus,
and any other measures involving a financial contribution to the
Airbus companies. The subsidies in question include those relating
to the entire family of Airbus products (A300 through the A380)(10)
The issue has acquired new urgency in recent years as Airbus sought
and received substantial new subsidies (so-called "launch aid")
for the Airbus A380 super jumbo aircraft and commitments of further
launch aid subsidies for its new A350 passenger aircraft. This
is well known by the world and the record shows that when Airbus
is delivering more aircraft than its U.S. rival, the Boeing Company
at that time. The United States believes that there is no justification
for continued subsidies to Airbus.

President Bush Discusses Economic Stimulus Rebate Checks
On Monday April 28th, the Treasury Department started delivering
the first of these tax rebates by direct deposit. During the first
week alone nearly 7.7 million Americans will receive their tax
rebates electronically. Then on May 9th, the IRS will begin mailing
checks to millions more across America. President Bush stated
that This money is going to help Americans offset the high prices
we're seeing at the gas pump and at the grocery store, and it
will also give our economy a boost to help us pull out of this
economic slowdown.
These rebates will provide eligible Americans with payments of
up to $600 a person, $1,200 for couples, and $300 per child.
According
to the Immediate Release Office of the Press Secretary April 25,
2008, It is recommended call
your local IRS office, or go to the IRS
website, If you have not done your tax report yet.

Global Master III (C17)
Catch4all Thanks To Heros - Global Master III (C17)
The C-17
Globemaster III is the newest, most flexible cargo aircraft to
enter the airlift force. The C-17 is capable of rapid strategic
delivery of troops and all types of cargo to main operating bases
or directly to forward bases in the deployment area. The aircraft
is also capable of performing tactical airlift and airdrop missions
when required.
The inherent
flexibility and performance of the C-17 force improve the ability
of the total airlift system to fulfill the worldwide air mobility
requirements of the United States.
Super
Hornet F/A-18 Hornet (C/D and E/F)
The F/A-18 has proven to be an ideal component of the carrier
based tactical aviation equation over its 15 years of operational
experience. The only F/A-18 characteristic found to be marginally
adequate by battle group commanders, outside experts, and even
the men who fly the Hornet, is its range when flown on certain
strike mission profiles. However, the inadequacy is managed well
with organic and joint tanking assets.

Bush Offers Carrots in Exchange for North Korea Nuclear Nukes Declaration
WASHINGTON — Pledging "action for action," President Bush on Thursday
said North Korea has demonstrated a commitment to dismantling its
nuclear weapons program and will be rewarded by being removed from
the U.S. list of state sponsors and having trade sanctions lifted.
The president spoke hours after North Korea submitted its long-awaited
declaration detailing its nuclear weapons activities. The government
said that it would blow up the cooling tower at its nuclear facility
on television and turned over documents to China about its plutonium
core and waste activities. "Today is a positive day and it's a positive
step forward," Bush said from the White House Rose Garden. "My point
is this: we'll see. They said they are going to destroy parts of
their plant in Pyongyang. That's a very positive step." But Bush
added, "We will trust you only to the extent that you fulfill your
promises. I'm pleased with the progress there are no illusions this
is the first step."

Global Master III (C17)
Boeing Global Master III (C17) (catch4all.com )
Catch4all Thanks To Heros - Global Master III (C17)
The
C-17 Globemaster III is the newest, most flexible cargo
aircraft to enter the airlift force. The C-17 is capable
of rapid strategic delivery of troops and all types
of cargo to main operating bases or directly to forward
bases in the deployment area. The aircraft is also capable
of performing tactical airlift and airdrop missions
when required.
The
inherent flexibility and performance of the C-17 force
improve the ability of the total airlift system to fulfill
the worldwide air mobility requirements of the United
States.
Super
Hornet F/A-18 Hornet (C/D and E/F)
The F/A-18 has proven to be an ideal component of the
carrier based tactical aviation equation over its 15
years of operational experience. The only F/A-18 characteristic
found to be marginally adequate by battle group commanders,
outside experts, and even the men who fly the Hornet,
is its range when flown on certain strike mission profiles.
However, the inadequacy is managed well with organic
and joint tanking assets.

South Korea said Wednesday that North Korea has started work to
restore its nuclear facilities after the country suspended operations
last week to disable them.

a year for the North to restart the facilities after they are
completely disabled.
