> Is this the kind of problem that is being uncovered because of the extra scrutiny that Boeing is currently under? Yes. > To put it another way, is this the kind of problem that is endemic across industry and we’re only finding out now because we are taking the time to look? That is a completely different matter. The increased scrutiny on Boeing can simply be uncovering that the wheels have been coming off for a while as result of the stock-chasing policy they’ve been following for 25 years. Previously it could be covered up because their primary regulator was too hands off but recent events have led to the FAA dedicating more resources to Boeing, and thus having a lot more opportunities to trip over malfeasance.
