How to check this claim

Look at: Program booking margin (unit cost of sales) for the referenced Boeing aircraft program (implied 777X/787-adjacent program discussion, per BCA segment disclosures)

kind of how do you see the play-by-play evolution with so much going on with the 737 and the 787. Jesus Malave: Yes. Thanks, John.

And then 777X change incorporation, I hear change incorporation. It sounds a bit scary based on past history when we hear change incorporation. What exactly is involved in terms of change incorporation? And how many aircraft kind of built aircraft are we potentially looking at where there -- where change incorporation is going to be necessary? Robert Ortberg: Let me start with the change incorp.
