The new head of Boeing’s troubled commercial airplane unit said the planemaker faces a “pivotal moment” as it works to boost quality and address significant concerns from regulators and airline customers after a panel flew off a 737 MAX 9 jet in January.
“This is a pivotal moment for us, and we have serious work ahead to build trust and improve our operations,” said Stephanie Pope, who was named president and CEO of Boeing Commercial Airplanes
...
Boeing CEO Dave Calhoun announced he would leave by the end of the year, while the company’s long-time head of commercial airplanes, Stan Deal, retired effectively immediately and the board chair Larry Kellner stepped down
...
In the aftermath of the incident, the FAA grounded the MAX 9 for several weeks, barred Boeing from increasing the MAX production rate and ordered it to develop a comprehensive plan to address “systemic quality-control issues” within 90 days.
Boeing production has fallen below the maximum 38 MAX planes per month the FAA is allowing. The Justice Department has opened a criminal investigation into the MAX 9 incident.

Girl Boss. She’ll fix it right up.
I’ll take “What happens after you go woke” for $500 Alex.
And the surgery won't just be on the company's operations. The Board of Directors will also have to be cleaned out.
Let the men fix the car.
Let the men fix the car.
I think Bobby Knight would be the perfect choice to clean up this mess. Too bad he’s not available.
Put the engineers back in charge. This chick ain’t one of them.
Who knew that merging with McDonnell would destroy Boeing?
Girl Boss. She’ll fix it right up.
I believe she’s “woke”. Sure sign of no IQ. Not an engineer. Another sign of future failure. Boeing is sooo screwed.
Fortune mag says her promotion is now in doubt. She is a long term Boing executive with her principle experience in finance departments at Boeing.
Put a chick in it and make her gay will certainly fix it.
DEI negro hire for the Baltimore port. The hits will continue.
Wait until the eventual majority non white male military fights a hardened force.

maybe Nikki Haley is available ...
Don’t forget about the pedestrian bridge in Florida.
Carly Fiorina.
That's the way to do it, Boeing! Put a bean counter in charge, that's how you fix a tech problem. They know what to do. /s /s /s
Stephanie Pope had to have the Stamp of Approval from a group of folks at the top of Boeing management AND some or all of the Board Members. Obviously, this “group” of folks still controls things at the top and they haven’t learned a thing from AB and other companies like AB.
People have “instincts”. My daughter is a CPA and is controller for a 40 million dollar company; BUT, she doesn’t have the “instincts” to run an ultra high pressure company like Boeing. When something goes wrong at Boeing, people die in an instant by the hundreds. My daughter could not take that pressure. Most likely Pope can’t either. Boeing is still stuck in the mud, perhaps hopelessly.....in one mans opinion.
Does Boeing have a tin ear as well as tin aircraft? Woke is not lethal in the classroom, but it sure can be in the cockpit and the production of aircraft. The only thing I can think of more going from frying pan into the fire than hiring a girl boss in the production of aircraft is if Boeing stole Dylan Mulvaney from Budweiser to head up the company and fix their problem.
Yeah, she did a number on HP.
Maybe Boeing had no choice. Biden Administration ordered Boeing to pick a woman for the CEO position. Even though she does not have a background in engineering.
