Summary
Whistleblowers at Boeing allege widespread safety lapses, including missing or defective parts and improper assembly practices, driven by pressure to maintain production schedules.
A January incident where a door panel blew off a new 737-9 Max mid-flight has sparked investigations, with insiders like Sam Mohawk revealing that thousands of faulty parts may have been installed on planes.
Other whistleblowers describe similar concerns over quality control failures, managerial indifference, and retaliation for speaking out.
Boeing denies safety risks but faces ongoing FAA investigations amid heightened scrutiny over its practices.
People have literally consciously stopped booking Boeing flights and it’s reduced the cost of tickets. I’m not sure how what I said is in any way controversial
It’s not controversial, it’s just wrong. It’s not an attitude. Not wanting to deal with all that is an attitude.
