first of all, Boeing does not exist as the company the created the truely great airliners that they were known for...747's the current compsny is the result of Boeing buying/merging with Macdonald Douglas and then having the Mac Doug executives perform an internal coup, and oust the manager/engineers from Boeing Second, the 737 max was designed partialy in Russia, not that there is anything wrong with rusdian aviation engineering, but that the russians worked cheap, and boeing set up a campus there,the issues bieng that it's non engineering managers running dirrerent teams, who dont speak the same language, and the old way, where the engineers worked directly with each other and the factory floor in real time, was lost. Three, the software was also out sourced to India, or some of it, and lo there you have it, a management frenzy, oooooooo, I bet it sure is busy busy busy, memo storms, and brisk self congradulaotory got it done's and fourth, Boeing moved head office to be as close to the pentagon and the faa as possible in order to concentrate on what they saw as important
