Boeing dedicates $100 million to victims of 737 Max crashes
New York (CNN Business) Boeing will pay out $100 million to help support the families and communities of the 346 people who died in two 737 Max crashes in the last year. The company said the money will be given to local nonprofits and community groups who will help distribute the funds. They'll be used to support education, including college tuition or other schooling expenses for children of victims, and "hardship or living expenses for impacted families," Boeing (BA) said in… (www.cnn.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
$100 million divided by 346 = $28901 per victim. A disgusting and miserable offer. Boeing assumed that a $100 million offer would seem outstanding. It is really really DISGUSTING.
What if they were to bump that per victim amount by a factor of, say, ten?
What a vile offer. I'm amazed it ever got out the door. It's incendiary, if nothing else.
It is amazing that management in this company is still there and still walking the streets.
Do not sign anything to get this money, they are trying to rob you.
What an insult, offering less than the cost of one 737 Max to the families of 346 people killed in 2 separate crashes. The crashes were the result of an issue that Boeing KNEW ABOUT and did not acknowledge to the general public nor the flight crews of the aircraft until after the second fatal crash. Obviously, the pay of Boeing's CEO and the value of its stock outweighed the lives of the flight crews and passengers of the 737 Max. Criminal negligence, if not murder.
Good move ... great decision. Awaiting numerous other airlines to follow with cancelling orders.
