    Eh, I don’t think they should close down, they just need to have their management completely replaced with people who care about aviation safety.

    Boeing has a lot of interesting tech, so don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater, but we definitely need someone competent to come in and scrub the tub.

      I feel it is not just management though, there is a certain kind of corporate culture that is very slow to change. On the other hand if Boeing closed down and most of their assets were bought and employees were employed in a new company there wouldn’t be an expectation by anyone that things would continue as they have been.

        But who would buy them? I guess someone like Lockheed Martin, or maybe an airline, idk. And then there’s no guarantee they’ll use it to build commercial airplanes.

        I think it would be much better to try to fix the executive team and have that culture trickle down. My company is going through a leadership change, and the cultural shift seems to be pretty quick.
