We all know that,idk why it's being circle jerked over and over again.

Not just the 737 max but also the problems with the 787. Boeing is a good example of what happens when enginnering is taken over by management.

This does seem like a rehashing, but I think the subtext is - from my perspective anyway - that there’s no clear end in sight to the 737 MAX issue.

When experienced pilots who knew all about the details crashed a simulator programmed with what was supposed to be the fix, that was the end of any credibility the current management could muster.

Douglas failed for a reason,the absorption of Douglas into Boeing should have been minus the management.

And of course the opposite is what actually happened. There is probably a lesson in there...

> Not just the 737 max but also the problems with the 787.

And the 737 NG too: cracks appearing in the wing supports.
