Report: Boeing Wichita closure surprised Air Force
<img src='http://assets.bizjournals.com/seattle/BoeingTankerInFlight315X309*100.jpg?v=1'>U.S. Air Force officials were caught off guard by the Boeing Co.?s decision to close its Wichita defense facility, and the decision is one reason the Air Force is keeping a close eye on the company?s progress on its new refueling tanker. According to a report from Reuters, Maj. Gen. Christopher Bogdan, who runs the tanker program for the Air Force, says he learned of the closure only the day before Boeing announced it in January. Immediately, he says, it raised red flags about potential delays...<div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.bizjournals.com/~ff/bizj_wichita?a=3XHQjCEyNsk:5VRzibmY_fA:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/bizj_wichita?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.bizjournals.com/~ff/bizj_wichita?a=3XHQjCEyNsk:5VRzibmY_fA:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/bizj_wichita?i=3XHQjCEyNsk:5VRzibmY_fA:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.bizjournals.com/~ff/bizj_wichita?a=3XHQjCEyNsk:5VRzibmY_fA:F7zBnMyn0Lo"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/bizj_wichita?i=3XHQjCEyNsk:5VRzibmY_fA:F7zBnMyn0Lo" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.bizjournals.com/~ff/bizj_wichita?a=3XHQjCEyNsk:5VRzibmY_fA:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/bizj_wichita?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> </div>
Oklahoma bank venturing into Wichita with Walmart branch

take into account the statistics that show that female drivers are usually safer drivers. Female drivers make fewer claims, drive safer vehicles, and get fewer traffic tickets than male drivers – statistically speaking, of course. Therefore, car companies see female drivers as a lesser risk than male drivers.

Yet, despite the gender of the driver, car companies always look at the age of the driver, too. Older drivers are viewed as less of a risk because they are thought to have more driving experience. Younger drivers are viewed as more of a risk because they are thought to have less driving experience.

So, how can you find cheap car for the young females?

Use all resources. This means, your good driving record, any driving classes you’ve successfully completed, your safe car, and your safe neighborhood. Point these facts out to the car agent, and you may get a cheaper car quote. You may even discover discounts you weren’t aware of.

Stay on, or “spin off” of, your parents’ car policy. If you stay on your parents’ policy, they will most likely get a discount for having multiple cars on their policy. You can “spin off” of their car policy if you have already been on their policy, and have now decided to get your own car policy from the same car company. By “spinning off” of their car policy, you will get a cheaper car policy than if you purchased your own from another company, or without ever having been on their policy.

By taking either, or both, of these steps you’ll find cheap car for the young female; at least, until you get a bit older!
