Investigators are probing whether Boeing employees failed to perform some quality inspections on its 787 jets, the Federal Aviation Administration said Monday.
The investigation is to determine whether the inspections were conducted and “whether company employees may have falsified aircraft records,” the FAA said.
While the investigation takes place, Boeing employees will inspect the Dreamliners it has not yet delivered to airline customers and will develop a plan for the planes that are currently flying, the FAA said.
The FAA said Boeing “voluntarily informed us in April that it may not have completed required inspections to confirm adequate bonding and grounding where the wings join the fuselage on certain 787 Dreamliner airplanes.”
That's complete rubbish. The problem is not DEI; it's outsourcing and a bean counter mentality that has subsumed quality.
Your response is complete rubbish. The amount of man hours and resources wasted on DEI is having a serious negative affect on many corporations. Thats why many companies are rethinking their DEI initiatives.
Let's consider the timeline of the 787 Dreamliner:
2003: Design phase of the 787 started.
2007: Production phase of 787 started.
2009: First flight of 787 occurred.
2011: First passenger flight of 787 occurred (Nippon Airlines)
2013: FAA grounds all 787s in January until the updated battery design was certified in April 2013.
2019: Substantial quality control concerns led to a production slowdown.
2021 to August 2022: Complete halt in 787 deliveries.
The FAA has been investigating allegations made by Boeing engineer Sam Salehpour about quality control issues that affect the 787. Salehpour worked for Boeing for about 10 years.
Your response is complete rubbish. The amount of man hours and resources wasted on DEI is having a serious negative affect on many corporations. Thats why many companies are rethinking their DEI initiatives.
Boeing's issues are not DEI related. It is entirely due to management changing from being engineer driven to profit driven with an emphasis on increasing profits by eliminating "useless" quality control steps.
Nothing will happen until a Boeing airplane falls out of the sky
