Wes Bush and Dennis Muilenburg, recently elevated to lead two of the aerospace and defense industry’s largest contractors, did not witness President John F. Kennedy’s call for the U.S. to land a man on the Moon. Bush, who will become CEO of Northrop Grumman on Jan. 1, was a month old when Kennedy gave his stirring speech to a joint session of Congress in 1961.

Inventories of used business jets declined 1% in November, the fourth straight month of improvement and another sign that the beleaguered sector is bottoming out, according to a new estimate by UBS Investment Research. But UBS analyst David Strauss says bizjet prices continue to decline and are down an estimated 30% from their peak. While key indicators suggest that the market is stabilizing at low levels, a significant oversupply of aircraft, tight financing and a weak fractional market could lead to an extended downturn, Strauss warns.
