I'll believe it when I see it.
There really isn’t another ASW aircraft option in the west…It seems the key issues are far more profound, and should probably steer us away from considering Boeing as a supplier:
Why Boeing’s Problems with the 737 MAX Began More Than 25 Years Ago
Aggressive cost cutting and rocky leadership changes have eroded the culture at Boeing, a company once admired for its engineering rigor, says Bill George. What will it take to repair the reputational damage wrought by years of crises involving its 737 MAX?
Once again, Boeing’s 737 MAX is back in the headlines.
After two crashes that killed 346 people in 2018 and 2019 and five years of ensuing design changes and regulatory scrutiny, the 737 MAX is grounded again after a mid-air blowout of a fuselage panel on January 5. After loose bolts were discovered on other MAX 9s, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) grounded the planes and opened an investigation into whether MAX is safe to fly, accompanied by a stern warning, saying, “This incident should have never happened, and it cannot happen again.”
Boeing has also experienced repeated problems in design and production with its newest jumbo jet, the 787 Dreamliner. Such frequent, repeated crises point to a deeper issue than isolated engineering mishaps. The underlying cause of these issues is a leadership failure that has allowed cultural drift away from Boeing’s once-vaunted engineering quality.

I'm not disagreeing with you, but I'm not sure there isn't something bigger at play here, and there but for the grace of god goes Airbus (or maybe the EUs regulatory structure is better than the US right now)?It seems the key issues are far more profound, and should probably steer us away from considering Boeing as a supplier:
There's a lot of speculation that the lack of maintenance and inspection is being affected because of DEI hiring.
Yeah, I’m gonna need to see a source on that.There's a lot of speculation that the lack of maintenance and inspection is being affected because of DEI hiring
I will not immediately dismiss this, as limiting of any pool of labour has impacts on performance of maintenance and safety.There's a lot of speculation that the lack of maintenance and inspection is being affected because of DEI hiring.
My god, I hope you warmed up before stretching that far. You're gonna tear something.There's a lot of speculation that the lack of maintenance and inspection is being affected because of DEI hiring.
Not just limiting, but giving preferential points to people because of things not directly related to their job performance.I will not immediately dismiss this, as limiting of any pool of labour has impacts on performance of maintenance and safety.
That said, that is a Grand Canyon sized leap to make without any proof or statistic to prove it.
I'm simply repeating what I heard on a couple of talk programs when the door blew off. I also didn't state anything categorically.My god, I hope you warmed up before stretching that far. You're gonna tear something.
Alleged Insider says Boeing's woes are symptom of 'failure of our elites' and DEI ‘ripping our society apart’ | Fox Business
An alleged insider from embattled airplane manufacturer Boeing spoke to a news outlet about how ESG and DEI are handicapping some of the most critical industries.www.foxbusiness.com
This has allegedly caused yet another rift between leadership and staff, "If you look at the bumper stickers at the factories in Renton or Everett, it’s a lot of conservative people who like building things—and conservative people do not like politics at work."
There's lots more, like the MSN link I posted above, if you want me to post more. Or you can DDG* it.Yeah, I’m gonna need to see a source on that.
See above.I would love to see any sort of actual analysis that shows that aircraft are falling apart because of Boeing hiring practices at any level aside from the fact that for the past few decades upper management has seen engineers displaced by MBAs.

So that got me reading…and it’s an interesting read.There's lots more, like the MSN link I posted above, if you want me to post more. Or you can DDG* it.

Airbus is French-led. Their work policies would make North American conservatives scream bloody murder.What’s the hiring process over at Airbus, they handcuffed by DEI policies as well?
Left, right and centre. 44 articles about the Texas AG questioning about DEI. You'll have to do your own research if you want more info.So that got me reading…and it’s an interesting read.
MSN reposted (since it doesn’t actually report news) a Fox Business article, which was a summary of a City Journal post by a noted DEI critic. City Journal is published by the Manhattan Institute, a Conservative think tank.
Now, I could be performing mental gymnastics here, but I would argue that it may be a bit biased against DEI in general and “situating the estimate” a bit.
