It may not be a household name, but Aviall Corp. has been one of the stock market's hottest aviation plays. Shares in the Dallas-based company, which sells aircraft replacement parts made by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), have nearly doubled in price during the last year. The stock is up about 25% since Jan. 1, bolstered by the recent acquisition of exclusive aftermarket distribution rights to General Electric Co.'s widely used CF6-50 and CF6-80A aircraft engines. The deal ultimately could add $5 billion to Aviall's sales.

Stonecipher is leaving a nice welcome gift for whoever takes his place: a very big pile of money. Boeing ended 2004 with more than $6 billion in cash and marketable securities, and that was after the company invested $4.3 billion to shore up its pension plan, repurchased $752 million worth of stock and raised its dividend twice.
