Maybe. But it won't be. That's not how corporate engineering works. And there's no appropriate pressure to change this. Boeing have far too much influence over the governing devices that are supposed to apply the healthy pressure which would result in the outcome you describe.
- CaptainZapp 7y agoThat's not how corporate engineering works I'd wager that corporate engineering standards are supposed to be a lot more stringent when you're not manufacturing widgets, but objects like buildings, bridges, or commercial airliners. That they didn't go into introspection mode, being the only entity who could (and should) have known what the potential issue was after the LionAir crash, and didn't move hell and high water to get to the ground of it (and they very obvisously didn't) is pretty much inexcusable. That they're still smearing the pilots, puts them, in my book, into the scum of the earth category. There should be a special place in hell for Boeing's senior management. edit: clarification
