A new Boeing whistleblower just dropped, and the claims this one is making about its safety issues are quite the doozy.

      Don’t forget about the board. The CEO isn’t the top of the dog pile.

        I’m sure they will split the military division from the plane building transfer the debts to a Canadian division then declare bankruptcy in Canada (see Blockbuster) and act like nothing ever happened in the US

      You think zip ties will hold together at those speeds? Not to mention cause drag due to the tiny bumps? Do you know anything about aerodynamical engineering?

      You have to zip tie it together, then duct tape over top nice and smooth for extra holding strength and to reduce wind resistance. Boeing, hire me instead!

        Not duct tape - speed tape. It’s an actual product for slapping parts on planes!
