Boeing Whistleblower: Production Line Has “Enormous Volume Of Defects” Bolts On MAX 9 Weren’t Installed::A reader at respected airline industry site Leeham News offered a comment that suggests they have access to Boeing’s internal quality control systems, and shares details of what they saw regarding the Boeing 737 MAX 9 flown by Alaska Airlines that had a door plug detach inflight, causing rapid decompression of the aircraft. The takeaway appears to be that outsourced plane components have so many problems when they show up at the production line that Boeing’s quality control staff can’t keep up with them all.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
If true, Boeing will cease to exist in a few years for the amount they are about to be sued.
Unfortunately, the US government will protect them despite all this, I’m afraid.
“Time for a multi billion dollar defence contract” -congress.
sadly, this is exactly what I suspect would happen.
Boeing is a defense contract darling, so they can never die.
Though, the commercial arm of Boeing could get broken off and sold to another airline if this gets any worse.
