Mobile, Alabama (CNN)Just three years after Airbus broke ground on its Mobile, Alabama, factory, the company has reached a major milestone, delivering its first ever airliner assembled in the U.S.

Dubbed, "BluesMobile," JetBlue's new A321ceo airliner rolled out Monday in front of an enthusiastic crowd of employees, JetBlue customers, VIPs and locals.
"Today is aviation history," said Jeff Martin, JetBlue executive vice president of operations.
Assembly line workers marched together with the University of South Alabama marching band chanting, "Here we go JetBlue, here we go!"
"We never thought we'd see Airbus airplanes being built in the U.S. in my lifetime," said John Leahy, Airbus chief operating officer -- customers.

Companies are dumb for building plants for tax incentives in the shit hole south. The quality of their workers takes a dive too.

Airlines around the world won't accept jets from their South Carolina plant because of how drastic the difference in quality and safety are from Washington state.

Boeing has a pile of shit on their hands now in South Carolina. The workers are garbage.

I trust people in the Dulles area working on planes. Just not places like Mississippi or Alabama.
