Here's how the strike by Boeing machinists will impact airline flights

Quick Summary:

The work stoppage will not immediately impact commercial flights but could still bring significant losses for the company, which is headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, but has its roots in the Seattle area, where it makes most of its planes for airlines.

The workers began picketing at Boeing factories and plants in Washington, Oregon and California on Friday after rejecting a contract offer their union negotiated and endorsed.

A strike by some 33,000 Boeing machinists has halted production of the American aerospace giant's best-selling airplanes.
