Yes, as someone who used to work in that field for a bit in the customer side, I have to agree. Thisbis an operational topic, and those involve a ton of phone calls, people all over the place at multiple companies using multiple unconnected

That's the whole point. And the reason why retaliation against whistleblowers ia mostly illegal. Proving reprisal actions can be so difficult so that it amounts to retribution itself. All the reason more to honor those few brave souls

To come down to the general quality of discusion: reasons. On a more serious note: Reporting states that Boeing and Spirit failed a third of their audits, so there is that. Also, FAA stopped Boeing from expanding their 737 MAX capacity. Als

Not sure what to say, I always had family to catch me, intentionally or not, when I came even remotely close to what you are going through. All I can think of is this: nothing is worth sacrificing your life for. That, and most likely you ar

Somehow, most people fail to see the obvious: The ongoing FAA audits at both, Spirit Aerospace and Boeing (so far it looks horrible based on initial reporting) will identify each and every single verifiable whistleblower claim anyways. So

The amount of conspiracie flying around in this thread are shocking. Someone committed, as it seems, suicide after years, if not decades, of emotional work related stress. They came forward, publicly, with their concerns. So publicly, that

Those depositions are extremely stressfull. Add in years if not decades of emotional stress, prior. So yes, that can cause depression and can lead to suicide. Another case where this happened was Therabis Edit: Theranos, obviously (my Pixel

Most of the time so, this approach leads to very deep discoveries of the kind other people learned in the first days of a 101 lesson studying said subject, at university or during some formal training of trade or craft.

There isba deep misunderstanding how aircraft purchases worm. Airlines run the numbers, and as soon as it becomes cheaper to buy a new one the old one gets replaced. Which model they choose depends a lot on their current fleet, switching fr

It seems to have been pretty basic VAT fraud. Nothing smart or havky about that. Happens dozens of times every day at various scales. And each and every time it is just plain old tax fraud.

This way of cheating with VAT is as old as there is a pan-European VAT agreement (the way to declare and manage it, not the amount). And sure as hell, there is always someone to try it. And sure as hell, someone is surprised they ultimately

It doesn't affect Boeing at all. Both, Airbus and Boeing are booked out for years to come. Airlines are buying those olanes, and quite frankly, passanger opinion doesn't factor into that much, if at all. It helps Kayak so, more pe

No, the intentional absence of documentation is in itself a serious issue. It can even be assumed that tjis documentation, wpupd it exist, wouod proof wrong doing. It tje opposite of Boeing interest to hide stuff.

It peetty much looks like that; Boeing admitted there is no documentation to come by, it was not the only time the mistake happened and we have rather credible whistelblower. Add to that a DoJ investigation, and the above looks like a reali

I am in aerospace, and working at that door plug the way it was done, is simply unexcuseable. No documentation, doing non-standard work, sloppy work on the safety critical bolts... Overall culture is to blame, no doubt about that. And still

Those are not my kind of humor. To my knowledge, LWT doesn't do those. I could be mistaken, as I honestly do remember all their episodes by heart.

You sure about that? It is true so, by the time those people go to jail, they rend to be neither rich nor powerfull anymore. See Elizabeth Holmes, SBF, just spontaniously.
