Boeing does, says rival Airbus.

Airbus calls 787 the

most subsidized civil aircraft in history – a claim that probably doesn’t sit too well with folks in Olympia.

The plane maker’s director of European affairs made the comment as Airbus and the European Union accused Boeing of taking unfair handouts from the United States – handouts that include the tax breaks granted by Washington state to Boeing to assemble its 787 Dreamliner here.

The European Union alleges that Airbus has lost $27 billion in revenue over the past three years because of illegal subsidies the U.S. government gave Boeing. The EU made its case during a World Trade Organization hearing Wednesday.

Boeing and the United States previously presented their case to the WTO, alleging European countries illegally gave Airbus $23 billion over four decades, or $205 billion with interest included.

The WTO had been expected to rule on Boeing’s claims in December but the ruling has been delayed.
