Nice use of lean production. Hope these jobs stay in Kansas and are not sent overseas.

I worked at CESSNA back in the first start-up of the plant. I was an A&P mechanic but they laid me off because of my RESERVE STATUS. I like working there but got frustrated with the management of the plant.

With all the competition Cessna has nowadays (Embraer, etc) they really need to get things more organized and efficient, at least thats the conclusion I have with what we can see at the video.
