Walter, you didn't say the 747 wasn't profitable, you said it wasn't subsidized.

Boeing is subsidized by the USG, there's no realistic debate on that. That subsidy applies across their product line.

I'd appreciate it if you could be specific about government funding for the 747.
I'd appreciate if you could show how the credit rating, stocks, employee training and business management of the civilian part and the military part of Boeing are two things. Additionally it would be nice to show the R&D firewall between the military and civilian parts of Boeing.
