This reminds me of an old clip from Benny Hill. He’s playing a Texan and says, “They flew me over here on a Boe-ing 747. It sounds like a piece of the plane just flew off!” Too bad he didn’t get to live to see his joke turn into an ongoing issue.

The structural driver that over decades tore safety and excellence out from Boeing’s engineers, greed and more greed, has been removed so there is no longer a risk that Boeing leaders would trade human life for 1/4% increase in their own stock price.
Definitely fixed now. I totally trust the company after all the soul searching and improvements they must have made.

They absolutely did not fix the root of this issue which means it is only a matter of time before it happens again.

You see… the previous corrupt process was only a problem not because doors were falling off planes mid air, but because that happened recently enough for you to remember it tied to the corrupt process. If Boeing isn’t allowed to sell cheaply made death traps, then China and Iran win.
