I also find it troubling that according to various press reports today the initial inspection instructions Boeing has given to the airlines have pretty much boiled down to "look around if you find loose bolts somewhere". If they had a working documented QA process they should have been able to immediately release step by step instructions on what exactly needs to checked and where. My company builds routers, which are far less mission critical. We have step by step instructions on QA steps both hanging on our walls and available digitally, too. It would take us an hour or so to share these with customers. I also wonder: All the time I only read about Alaska Airlines and United having grounded their 737 max planes. What about all the other customers of them around the world? I haven't heard of any other airline, for example here in Europe where I am, having grounded those planes for inspection. Is this a "if planes crash abroad it won't damage our shareholder value in the US that much" kind of strategy...?
