    Wow. My stepdaughter and her boyfriend flew with one of these just yesterday.

    I hope this is resolved soon. The top brass at Boeing probably won’t be getting a lot of leisure time until then.

      Why do you say this? What gives you the idea that they will face some form of workload pressure because of this?
      The only people not getting leisure time will be the persons responsible fixing this. The consequences for the top brass will be Golden Parachuting to the next job, losing stock or face devaluation of said stock.

      If you honestly think top brass is actually fixing this or face some form of heavy workload then you’d be wrong.

      PS: This is not a manifesto on the inequalities of the current system 😊
      It’s based on 40+ years of working where I have never seen top brass taking any form of responsibility or workload. They ‘connect’, ‘network’ and god knows what. All fair play if hired for that but please, do not confuse top management and actual work on products or being involved in fixing products. Also, never seen them ‘empower’ or ‘facilitate’ so others can work more efficiently or something like that.

      Ok, small personal manifesto after all 😇

        Oh, I’d be very surprised if any actual personal responsibility found its way to them. But they’re gonna have to look super busy and worried for the press for a while, find somebody else to pin the blame on, call friends in government to ‘expedite’ any investigations and reassure their shareholders. That’s gonna cost them a lot of time they could have spent on nicer things such as working on their handicap, doing coke in the coutry club’s bathroom or firing a couple of hundred workers.

        Other than that I totally agree with you.
