Bottom line is that Boeing expected some type of competence from CFM International. Too bad Boeing neglected their own software. Now they may be stuck with an embarrassing lemon.
Boeing will get it sorted out, and in 5 years they’ll be making a lot of money off the MAX. They just rushed it to market before it was ready, and cut a few corners along the way.
Heads will roll, but it will likely be scapegoats rather than the real responsible parties. Maybe a big number fine from the feds, but not enough to really hurt the company.
