CHICAGO, Feb. 8, 2010 – Boeing Chairman, President & CEO Jim McNerney

issued the following statement today:

“We at Boeing are deeply saddened to hear today of Rep. John Murtha's
passing.  Jack -- or Mr. Chairman as I called him -- served his country in
both war and in peace, earning not only medals for sacrifice and valor but
also the respect of his constituents who first elected him to Congress 36
years ago.  Our nation has lost a patriot who loved this country and what it
stands for, and the people of Pennsylvania have lost a man who cared deeply
for those he served. Our thoughts and prayers are with Joyce and the Murtha
family during this time of loss.”

Since the first scandals began to break before the Copenhagen Conference on Climate, there have been waves of new revelations. That in itself is deeply concerning because what is emerging is that there has been a concerted effort by a small number of influential fanatics to hide data they find inconvenient and to deliberately misuse other data. What is making the matter far worse is that scientist after scientist is now coming forward to claim that their reports and data have been deliberately misrepresented and that they had already expressed their deep concerns to those who were rewriting their reports.

* Team Finland's perseverance pays off as they move ahead of Spirit of
Australia
* Qingdao has a busy night avoiding 150,000-tonne tankers
* Cape Breton Island prepares for the rough conditions ahead

Another day in the race to Qingdao and the relatively benign conditions
persist. It will not be long, however, before the wind ramps up and the
teams experience the harsh conditions that this race is renowned for.
Spirit of Australia's skipper, Brendan Hall, realises that one advantage
of the static conditions is that they allow his crew to rest and prepare
themselves for the onslaught which potentially lies ahead.
