The Boeing Company and Onex Corporation say they've reached an
agreement under which Onex will acquire the Wichita/Tulsa Division
of Boeing Commercial Airplanes.
The transaction includes Commercial Airplanes facilities and assets
in Wichita, Kansas, and Tulsa and McAlester, Oklahoma. Transaction
consideration to Boeing includes approximately $900 million cash,
transfer of certain liabilities and long-term supply agreements
that provide Boeing ongoing cost savings.

commercial flights were "lit up" by lasers on approach to
Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport Sunday night. All six
aircraft were headed for landings on DFW's Runway 18R.
US Airways has a new friend in WisconsinAir, the nation's

Airways struggles to emerge from its second trip to federal
bankruptcy court.
