American Airlines Files Chapter 11, What Does Boeing Say?

American Airlines posted a press release on their Facebook page

I wanted to see how this affected Boeing.

Corporate Site - Nothing
No comment on their Boeing corportate media site. Nothing new since Nov 23, 2011.

I Asked for a Comment on Twitter @Boeing Please comment on AMR and American Airlines Filing for Chapter 11 Reorganization
