Despite posting a smaller net income in 2005 as opposed to 2004, Textron looks like it will have a very strong year in 2006 due in part to the acquisition of government aviation contracts as well as growth in many of the other markets which Textron serves. 2005 Annual Report for Textron 2005 Annual Report for Textron
