      This article reports on the plan of Boeing to file a formal protest with the U.S. federal government on March 11, 2008 after failing to secure a $40 billion-contract from the Air Force. While Boeing (BA) executives have complained about the Air Force award to an alliance of Northrop Grumman (NOC) and European Aeronautic Defence & Space (EADS), they said the decision to protest was not made lightly. Only after a debriefing by Air Force officials on March 7, 2008 and a meeting with his top lieutenants did Boeing CEO Jim McNerney decide to take the step.
