@wheelerdealers Thx @wheelerdealers for some inspiration in tough times!!

[Amy Hillis @ABAviationWeek]

@barbarastarrcnn Word, Barbara.

[Amy Hillis @ABAviationWeek]

@JeffSchogol @AthertonKD @NoahShachtman thank you! So kind! Been on leave with my new baby. What a kind note to see between diapers!

[Amy Hillis @ABAviationWeek]

@aaronmehta Headless bureaucrat! And, it may depend on who gets the job on whether he's riding the F-35 or vice versa! ; )

[Amy Hillis @ABAviationWeek]

@aaronmehta Took quite some time to find Laplante so I suspect folks better settle in for a headless SAF/AQ!

[Amy Hillis @ABAviationWeek]

@aaronmehta I think stuff a mil dip can't do would get pushed up to Secaf.

[Amy Hillis @ABAviationWeek]

@AaronMehta so an acting lacks all the power of an approved nominee if I recall right. Remember Davis ran stuff before LaPlante?

#USAF procurement chief Laplante to land at Mitre FFRDC after departing service.

[Amy Hillis @ABAviationWeek]

#UASF AQ chief Laplante to depart by month end; mil dep LtGen Bunch likely interim head. He planned departure earlier, stayed on for #LRSB

[Amy Hillis @ABAviationWeek]

Yep... https://t.co/oJfmeCD4Rr

.@realDonaldTrump confuses @thef35 and #LRSB. Thank you, @DailyCaller for making my night. https://t.co/g0KygqBPjU

#Northrop starts grass roots push to end run #Boeing, #Lockheed #LRSB protest by appealing to prez, Congress. https://t.co/4rzoNyCNyK

[Northrop Grumman @northropgrumman]

Our national security is at risk. Ensure the Long-Range Strike Bomber program moves forward without delay. #LRSB https://t.co/T6CSU4esr5

Per SOP, #USAF stops work on #Northrop's #LRSB as #GAO reviews #Boeing, #Lockheed protest. (Subscribers only) https://t.co/wbFMBrf3UA

@ABAviationWeek on Boeing, Lockheed protest of "botched" LRS-B award to Northrop. https://t.co/I5SRNWdGuk

[Amy Hillis @ABAviationWeek]

TANKER Part 2? Why #Boeing and #Lockheed protested #LRSB, and questions about whether claims will stick with #GAO. https://t.co/TZYVnZM7S5

[Amy Hillis @ABAviationWeek]

So it begins. #Boeing #Lockheed file #LRSB protest over #USAF award to #Northrop for $23B development contract. GAO has 100 days to review.

[Amy Hillis @ABAviationWeek]

Why did #Northrop win? Who knows? USAF still has much to share about #LRSB such as EMD price, cost control measures. https://t.co/46gtmmOQSE
