This comes just a FEW DAYS after ex-Boeing employee John Barnett began handing over key pieces of evidence in a lawsuit alleging the airplane manufacturer covered up safety concerns such as :
➡️ One-in-four oxygen masks installed were faulty and would not work during emergencies
➡️ Workers being told to DELIBERATELY fit substandard parts (such as ones in scrap bins) to aircrafts in order to hurry up production
➡️ General safety measures being ignored by under-pressure workers
None of that surprises me. The new KC-46 tankers they have been building for the military have been fraught with problems like those. That’s why many of the pilots prefer to stay with the KC-135 even though they are in constant need of maintenance.
What’s an aircrafts? There is no “s” in aircraft.
Methinks that Boeing has a “Wet Work Squad”...
