I'm sure you're correct about the FAA rules, butcha better tell CNN, the
Chicago Tribune, and Boeing's spokesguy.  Appears there may not be a
problem in the very short term, but a longer shutdown will impact deliveries.
FAA seems to be recalling many inspectors, though.  I guess they heard
Boeing squealing.
