it has everything to do with it. the current issues are a symptom of shortcuts and cost cutting at the expense of long-term growth and continued success. 737 MAX MCAS was the result of MBAs cutting costs when the right thing was to spend more and develop a new plane. Aircraft doors blowing open mid-flight is the result of MBAs cutting costs and outsourcing safety device manufacturing and install to ultra-cheap low quality vendors like malaysian spirit aerosystems.
- lamontcg 3y agoBut "just create a new plane instead of the MAX" doesn't address the other deficiencies that you point out. Spirit would be just as shitty at putting together 737-900s as 737-MAX9's (and in fact they're finding QC issues in 737-900s now)
