STILL no detail on the ‘technical event’.

smh

And, btw, it didn’t start in 2018, but in 2010. Sadly, the feds colluded with Boeing to shut down the whistleblowers about the 737NG production problems and nothing changed.

The events in the news today are a direct result of the trajectory on which Boeing CHOSE to remain.

It is in Wichita, not Tulsa, I think.

“Is McDonnell Douglas management running Boeing these days?”

Not sure if that’s a rhetorical question, but yes. Boeing and McDonnell Douglas merged and MDD management is running(ruining) the company.

Its a deep question as to whether he can hire the staff to run his companies without his direct supervision.

Elon needs a #2. Bill Gates had that in Steve Ballmer. But Ballmer wasn't quite the visionary Gates was. But he kept things running.

Let me repeat myself more clearly.

DEI in corporate managements is driven by HR departments and legal. They get positions on the board of directors and influence management and the entire corporate structure.

DEI does not exist in accounting any more than it does in engineering.

As to people holding MBA degrees. Those people may have undergraduate degrees in accounting, engineering, or something else and such a degree is not a determining factor in DEI.

“DEI in corporate managements is driven by HR departments and legal. ...

“DEI does not exist in accounting any more than it does in engineering.”

DEI does exist in accounting and engineering due to the dictates of the HR Departments.

Hubby has a Masters in Engineering, and a PhD in Physics. He retired early due to the influx of Political Correctness. (Pre the terms, “woke”, “DEI”, etc.) The company had hired an incompetent black chick to run one of the labs and she destroyed it. Instead of having to deal with the legal chaos of firing her ass and hiring a competent person, they CLOSED THE LAB.

Sorry to hear that, MM.

I hope and pray that DEI and Wokedom meet their just rewards soon.

If Disney's and AB InBev's financial problems and the military's recruitment problems weren't a wake-up call, perhaps airplanes falling from the sky thanks to Boeing and United will get the message across.

If CNN is reporting it, that means it’s time to buy Boeing stock.

PBS Newshour Report

Boeing remains on the hot seat over questions about its production processes. The head of the National Transportation Safety Board told lawmakers her investigators still don’t know who worked on the door panel that blew out of an Alaska Airlines flight. Meanwhile, NYT reported Boeing and a key supplier failed a number of audits. Aviation correspondent Miles O’Brien spoke on what went wrong.

needs and wants are different.

It is not simple.

The govt wants to know everything about you. Do you think they need that?

regarding the article, there is a lot we don’t know.
