                                  EXHIBIT 10.1
                               OPERATING AGREEMENT

         THIS  AGREEMENT,  dated  effective  as of August 1, 1997 by and between
Boeing  Capital  Services  Corporation  ("BCSC"),   formerly  McDonnell  Douglas
Financial Services  Corporation  ("MDFS"),  a Delaware  corporation,  and Boeing
Capital  Corporation  ("BCC"),  formerly  McDonnell Douglas Finance  Corporation
("MDFC"), a Delaware corporation;

                              W I T N E S S E T H:
         WHEREAS,  McDonnell Douglas  Corporation ("MDC") and the parties hereto
have entered into an Amended and Restated Operating Agreement dated effective as
of April 12, 1993 (the "Operating Agreement"), which provides that MDC shall pay
MDFS for certain tax savings  realized by MDC as a result of including  MDFS and
its  subsidiaries  in its  consolidated  return  and that MDFS shall pay MDC for
certain  additional  taxes incurred by MDC as a result of including MDFS and its
subsidiaries in such return.

         WHEREAS,  The Boeing  Company  ("Boeing")  and BCSC have entered into a
Supplemental  Operating  Agreement  dated  effective  as of  August 1, 1997 (the
"Supplemental  Operating Agreement"),  which provides that Boeing shall pay BCSC
for certain tax savings realized by Boeing as a result of including BCSC and its
subsidiaries  in its  consolidated  return  and that BCSC  shall pay  Boeing for
certain  additional  taxes  incurred by Boeing as a result of including BCSC and
its subsidiaries in such return.

         NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

         Section 1. Federal Income Taxes. Pursuant to the Supplemental Operating
Agreement,  it is the intention of Boeing to continue to file its Federal income
tax returns on a consolidated  basis with MDC and BCSC and its  subsidiaries  in
accordance  with the income tax  regulations  under Section 1502 of the Internal
Revenue  Code of 1986,  as amended.  With respect to each taxable year for which
such  practice  remains in effect,  BCSC agrees to pay to BCC an amount equal to
the excess of (i) the amount of Boeing  consolidated  Federal income taxes which
would be due for such taxable year if such taxes were  computed by excluding BCC
and its subsidiaries, over (ii) the amount of Boeing consolidated Federal income
tax  which  would be due for  such  taxable  year if such  taxes  were  computed
including BCC and its  subsidiaries.  If for any such taxable year the amount of
taxes computed in accordance  with clause (ii) hereof shall exceed the amount of
taxes  computed  under  clause  (i),  BCC shall pay BCSC an amount  equal to the
excess of the clause (ii) amount over the clause (i) amount.  If  subsequent  to
any  payments  made by BCSC (or BCC)  pursuant to this Section 1, Boeing or BCSC
(or BCC) shall incur Federal income tax losses which under  applicable law could
be carried back to the taxable year for which such payments  were made,  BCC (or
BCSC) will  nevertheless  be under no  obligation  to repay to BCSC (or BCC) any
portion of such payments.

         Section 2.        Miscellaneous.

         2.1      This Agreement is not and does  not constitute a direct or 
indirect guarantee by BCSC of any obligation or debt of BCC.

         2.2      This Agreement may be amended, waived or terminated at any 
time by written agreement of the parties.

         2.3      In no event shall BCC receive an amount under this Agreement
which is less than the amount that BCC would have received under Section 4 of 
the Operating Agreement dated as of January 15, 1975 between MDC and MDFC in 
the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

         2.4       BCSC  hereby assigns to BCC its rights and obligations  
under Sections 1, 2 and 3 of the Operating Agreement.

         2.5       The  Operating Agreement between MDFS and MDFC dated  
February 8, 1989 with regard to Federal Income Taxes is hereby terminated.

                                  SUPPLEMENTAL
                               OPERATING AGREEMENT

         THIS  AGREEMENT,  dated  effective as of August 1, 1997, by and between
Boeing  Capital  Services  Corporation  ("BCSC"),   formerly  McDonnell  Douglas
Financial Services Corporation ("MDFS"), a Delaware corporation,  and The Boeing
Company, a Delaware corporation ("Boeing").

                              W I T N E S S E T H:
         WHEREAS,  McDonnell  Douglas  Corporation  ("MDC"),  McDonnell  Douglas
Finance Corporation  ("MDFC") and MDFS have entered into an Amended and Restated
Operating  Agreement  dated  effective as of April 12, 1993 (the "1993 Operating
Agreement"),  which  provides  that MDC shall pay MDFS for  certain  tax savings
realized  by MDC as a  result  of  including  MDFS and its  subsidiaries  in its
consolidated  return and that MDFS shall pay MDC for  certain  additional  taxes
incurred  by MDC as a result  of  including  MDFS and its  subsidiaries  in such
return.
         WHEREAS, as of the date hereof MDC has become a wholly owned subsidiary
of Boeing.

                  NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

         Section 1. Federal Income Taxes.  It is the intention of Boeing to file
its Federal income tax returns on a consolidated basis with MDC and BCSC and its
subsidiaries in accordance with the income tax regulations under Section 1502 of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. With respect to each taxable year
for which  such  practice  remains in  effect,  Boeing  agrees to pay to BCSC an
amount  equal to the  excess of (i) the  amount of Boeing  consolidated  Federal
income  taxes  which  would  be due for such  taxable  year if such  taxes  were
computed by excluding BCSC and its subsidiaries,  over (ii) the amount of Boeing
consolidated  Federal  income  taxes which would be due for such taxable year if
such taxes were computed  including BCSC and its  subsidiaries.  If for any such
taxable year the amount of taxes computed in accordance  with clause (ii) hereof
shall  exceed the amount of taxes  computed  under  clause  (i),  BCSC shall pay
Boeing an amount  equal to the excess of the clause  (ii) amount over the clause
(i) amount.  If subsequent to any payments made by Boeing (or BCSC)  pursuant to
this  Section 1, Boeing (or BCSC) shall incur  Federal  income tax losses  which
under  applicable  law could be carried  back to the taxable year for which such
payments were made, BCSC (or Boeing) will nevertheless be under no obligation to
repay to Boeing (or BCSC) any portion of such payments.

         Section 2.        Miscellaneous.

         2.1      This Agreement is not and does not constitute a direct or
                  indirect guarantee by Boeing of any obligation or debt of 
                  BCSC.

         2.2      This Agreement may be amended, waived or terminated at any 
                  time by written agreement of the parties.

         2.3      In no event shall BCSC receive an amount under this Agreement
                  which is materially less (or be obligated to pay an amount  
                  which is  materially  greater)  than the amount that
                  BCSC would have received (or have paid) under  Section 4
                  of the 1993 Operating Agreement;

<PAGE>


provided that the amount payable  hereunder by any party shall be reduced by the
amount that such party is obligated to pay, or increased by the amount that such
party is entitled to receive, under Section 4 of the 1993 Operating Agreement.
