Leonard Nimoy 1931-2015, And A Bombshell Order For Boeing.

And, while breaking news (or wind) is not really our schtick, every once in a while something cool comes along which even makes us go, Wow!  And, it was a very welcome, and quite unexpected, order for the Boeing 787, courtesy of Air Tahiti Nui.  The news is HUGE, being that the airline has been a 100% Airbus operator since day-one.
