I kinda get it. Boeing may just be trying to improve their image but they’re doing it during an active investigation. Considering just how little they’ve cared in the past this may an attempt to garner sympathy from the public before everything is done.
The rule is there to prevent them from releasing info the NTSB hasn't done a full analysis on, but that's not the case here. However, the info was already made public by the NTSB, to the Senate nonetheless.
In what world does it make sense that Boeing can't repeat the same thing when talking about it? Boeing isn't even allowed to repeat what the NTSB as publicly said? That's insane.
A judge would throw this out of court if it came before them, as a ridiculous waste of the court's time.
No, the NTSB said that Boeing hadn't provided them with the records, not that orders for the reinstallation hadn't been made. Boeing is now trying to blame the lack of records to follow-up on on employees, even though none of the work should have been possible without the records existing in the first place.
Boeing absolutely shouldn't be trying to get out ahead of the NTSB investigation with their own deflecting interpretation of what the NTSB has uncovered and shared with Boeing, which is probably along the lines of the anonymous whistleblower from a few months ago who detailed failings in the record keeping process before the senate hearings revealed that Boeing hadn't provided the NTSB with the records (which according to the anonymous whistleblower didn't exist because they were never created)
Boeing has broken so many rules, what's another, at this point this incident is irrelevant.
The fact that one missed piece of paperwork is not what caused this, even if it is the trigger. The company focusing on minimizing paper trail and fudging paperwork to pass regulations is what caused it.
No, terrible record keeping is exactly what caused this, according to the anonymous whistleblower: warranty work on the door was performed without any records being created for it due to boeing keeping two record keeping systems, one that was the system of record and one that was used as visibility for management.
That's exactly my point, it's not one piece of paperwork, it's an entire record keeping process that's screwed up.
Stock buyback time, am I right?
Brilliant idea squid. You're getting promoted!
And boy did Boeing have to bring out a lot of mops on Thursday. But this time, it kinda, sorta just maybe wasn’t Boeing’s fault.
I'm sorry what now?
