Boeing probably does have some quality issues.
But I wonder if they are being sabotaged by a couple of airport maintenance teams.
“Executives at the aerospace giant’s shiny new headquarters in Arlington, Virginia”
Arlington, 5 miles from DC. It would seem Boeing has become more of a Lobbying firm than a Plane Manufacturer. And now they will go into full blown Lobbying to buy off politicians from going whoop ass on them with investigations.
Perversion and anti-white racism is job one:

You are correct. Boeing also needs to bring their fit and finish and passenger comfort up to the level of Airbus.
Definitely! Who maintains the Boeing planes? If it is Boeing, that division is culpable. I always think about the design and build parts of Boeing. The engineers are top notch.
“If it’s Boeing, I’m not going”
Let us also not forget that every one of these airplanes was inspected and approved by the United States Government.
Every.
Single.
One.
How much Diversity have them implemented , diversity and trouble should be even
Johnny Cash. I got it one piece at a time.
the 737 MAX is an albatross around the companies neck.
Issues with Boeing are systemic throughout the entire organization. Their software development is horrendous and their archaic leadership model lends itself to no one doing work until it is approved all the way up through the chain of command. No one in the lower rakes are willing to make decisions without running it up the flagpole. It was sad to watch.
And what ever you do, do no ask a Boeing union employee about he death of a certain whistle blower, lest you too commit ‘suicide’.
“”I’m at an alert status that I’ve never had to be in on a Boeing airplane,” he says.”
That’s a really good point. In the early days of aviation one had to be a superb pilot to fly any airplane and the company building the plane also had to have superb standards and employees, so no room for DEI. Even with all of that, it was still very risky.
Now Boeing seems to have returned to requiring superb pilots, but the airlines long ago jettisoned the idea of superb pilots, in order to ‘look more like America’.
The problem now for the Wokesters is that people are willing to put up with DEI in their face just about everywhere...but in in air travel.
It would be REALLY GOOD if this mess puts a stake through this DEI crap once and for all, by either Boeing or the Airlines, or both, PUBLICLY ANNOUNCING that DEI is an ABJECT FAILURE, and that they’re jettisoning it, and if the FAA wants to shut them down for it, so be it.
This is just the media’s winter “shark attack frenzy” blitz because they need something to divert headline readers away from real issues.
Boeing was a great company before they merged with McDonnell Douglas. The big joke with Boeing engineers is “McDonnell Douglas acquired us with our own money. “
You are so right. Lazy journalism with big headlines.

What would Xi do if he wanted to cripple America’s ability to control the skies in a war?
They need to cut their losses and stop selling this particular line.
>Could this be sabotage by angry unionistas upset about some of Boeings anti-union movements....<
I highly doubt that. Angry unionists see to it that the flight is delayed or cancelled, usually through a technicality. Murder is an absolute no-no to getting your demands. Even the dumbest of highly trained angry unionists gets that. Plus, everything is traceable.

This has been coming for a number of years.
We can thank the cozy relationship with the federal regulators.
Boeing should have been broken up years ago to separate their government/defense manufacturing from commercial aircraft. It should have been a condition of the McDonnell Douglas merger.
