The investigation is tied to an incident on an Alaska Airlines flight in early January. Boeing also told a Senate panel that it cannot find a record of the work done on the Alaska plane.

    And when was the last time that the US sent to jail anybody in the C-suite of a major US company?

    In the US (and not only) the Law might be on the book but it’s most definitelly selectivelly applied and all we’ve seen when it comes to the top people in such “too big to fail” companies is settlements with no admission of guilt.

      I don’t disagree. I also think people should present the VW Diesel Emissions scandal accurately.

        Oh yeah, that stuff was a complete total disgrace and partly why I wrote “In the US (and not only)”.

        Protecting C-suite types in big companies is almost always how things work in Western Nations, even the supposedly more honest ones.
