That’s correct and they are contracted out by Boeing because it’s Boeing engines that do the pinging and send the data.


No, they are Rolls Royce engines and the data went to the UK and was first reported from there IIRC.

That was the way it was first reported but then the name “Rolls Royce” was removed entirely from the story, which is strange, but it is indicative that Rolls Royce is a Boeing subcontractor that makes those engines to Boeing specs and thus for all intents and purposes and legal reasons they are Boeing engines.
