Trash it and send some executives and managers to prison
- fffox 4y agoisn't it amazing that 350 people died and years later no one has been put in prison yet?
- Fargoan 4y agoIt's infuriating
- throwaway81523 4y agoThey did prosecute someone, which looked to me like a case of throwing an underling out of the bus, but it looks like that person was acquitted by a jury: https://abcnews.go.com/Business/wireStory/boeing-test-pilot-found-guilty-deceiving-faa-83635543 https://abcnews.go.com/Business/wireStory/boeing-test-pilot-... Former Boeing test pilot found not guilty of deceiving FAA A jury in Texas has found a former Boeing test pilot not guilty of deceiving federal regulators about a key flight-control system on the Boeing 737 Max jetliner (March 2022)
- fffox 4y agoexactly, that guy was just a fall guy. If a system / organization is designed such that the fate of something as critical as an aircraft depends on ONE test pilot, that system needs to be re-assessed. All those managers / senior engineers / decision makers should be fired / fined and the worst of them should be put in prison.

- missedthecue 4y agoDon't you have to break the law to go to prison? Or are we trying to recreate the old comintern and frame fallguys in order to make us feel justice was served when sad things happen.
