What Happened to Boeing?

Once the pride of American aviation, Boeing keeps making headlines for the wrong reasons. Five years ago, two of its new 737 Max planes crashed, killing 346 people. Since then, a series of CEOs have struggled to regain the trust of regulators and the public. After a panel blew off a plane in January, US officials ordered a limit on 737 Max manufacturing. While intended to focus Boeing on safety, right now it means summer travel may be in for some turbulence. In this Bloomberg Originals mini-documentary, we explain why.

where's the whistleblower part? :P

[michaelsmith]

imagine spending the cost to develop 2 new planes from scratch purely to buyback your own stock and then wondering why you're not able to compete anymore on technology

MBAs destroyed a lot of companies by not listening to engineers, customers or anyone else who knows more than numbers and stock prices!!

[anthonywalsh]

“Insatiable demand…. Most important moment in Boeing’s life.” Unbelievable, 346 dead for the CEO to speak like this. Obviously the culture hasn’t changed.

A company is never too big to fail, period.

My cousin used to work for Boeing and he tells me the scandal is much worse than most people realize.

Bloomberg talking about late stage capitalism too now? Jesus, talk about a zeitgeist

“How Boeing Descended Into Crisis” I think the proper title is: How Boeing Nosedive Into Crisis.

If it’s Boeing it ain’t going. Plain and simple. If it’s Airbus let’s go!!!

Where is the punishment for the bean counters?

[Hyperion]

Safety must be put first regardles of company

[LeaverWild]

The FAA is as much of a problem as Boeing. No problem - I’ll drive.

Prop up Embraer, Work towards certifying Comac in western markets. Bring in Competition. This duopoly has made Boeing complacent

[JeanSamyr]

Brazilians, it’s time to take over. Go Embraer take the Boeing Market.

Driven by pure greed, it's likely that Boeing will face no accountability. It's the simple things, such as bolts, coils, washers, etc., that matter.

[jhendricks]

boing, an example of top heavy mis-management, same with AT&T and it's loss of Bell Labs.
